Come and enjoy an epic semi-private rafting adventure down the glacier river Hvítá!

This tour guarantees that your group will have your own boat, making it a more personal and flexible experience — perfect for families, friends, or small teams who want to enjoy the river together without being mixed with strangers.

Hvítá originates from the mighty Langjökull Glacier and is the third longest river in Iceland, stretching 185 kilometers. It’s home to several stunning waterfalls, including the iconic Gullfoss!

If you’re looking for adrenaline mixed with breathtaking nature, this is the trip for you. Experience the raw power of Hvítá with thrilling rapids, splashy waves, and unforgettable canyon views. You’ll raft through Hvítá Canyon and Brúarhlöð, dramatic landscapes only accessible by raft or kayak — a true once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

We’ll paddle around 9 kilometers down the river, with the entire tour lasting 3.5 to 4 hours. Please arrive at the Secret Local Adventures Base at least 15 minutes before departure.
