If I could give the ATV crew a 10 star review, I would. Our helicopter tour was cancelled due to weather but we had an absolutely amazing time on our ATV tour. Be aware of driving restrictions in Iceland though, even though my son has his Driver's license in the US he was not allowed to drive an ATV in Iceland as he was under 18.

Itinerary
SAVE TIME AND MONEY WITH A QUAD BIKE AND HELICOPTER TOUR
There’s so much to see in Iceland, but only so much time. That’s where our combo tours help you make the most of your time in Reykjavik and birds eye helicopter views from above allow you to see more than you ever could on the ground! And what a combination – adrenaline-filled ATV action in the mountains, followed by a fascinating ride in the skies of Iceland. Plus it’s safe and suitable for everyone.
PART 1 – ATV ACTION – MINUTES FROM YOUR REYKJAVÍK HOTEL
We pick you up from your Reykjavik hotel*, and take the short journey to our quad biking base camp. There we’ll make sure you get all the safety and driving instruction you need. No experience necessary – so all are welcome.
From base camp, we head across the countryside and up to the mountains. The ride itself is an amazing buzz, topped only by stunning views across the Reykjavik area.
PART 2 – HELICOPTER RIDE OVER REYKJAVÍK!
After we conquer the off-road territory, we’ll drop you off with our friends at Norðurflug Tours. From there you will explore the skies while taking in aerial views of Reykjavík and the local mountain ranges. You’ll be captivated by these unforgettable views. The highlight of the tour includes landing your helicopter on top of a mountain for 20 minutes to get out and stop to appreciate the view. This is a once in a lifetime experience. If you’re going to do a helicopter tour anywhere in the world, there’s no better place than Iceland.

Safari Quads were amazing!!!totally recommend it - Patrick was fantastic and everyone had such great fun.
Great day about a five hour experience. My son’s first experience on ATVs and in a helicopter… beautiful views over Reykjavík. The helicopter ride was very smooth….a fun experience!
It was a lot of fun my son’s first ATV experience and first time in a helicopter, beautiful views really stunning
Everything was super easy to figure out and I had an amazing experience! The drive was waiting at my pickup spot before I was even there. I was lucky enough to accidentally get a private tour for the ATV tour and got Pedro as my guide! He was amazing and gave a great time! The helicopter tour was also great and I was transported from the ATV tour to the airport where the helicopter tour took place and then it was an easy walk back into Reykjavik from the airport.
Two very cool tours combined into one great experience. You’re picked up and brought to Safari Quads. After receiving a helmet, optional protective weather gear, and a short introduction, you’re ready to go. The automatic ATVs are easy to handle, even for beginners. The tour is diverse from town roads to get to gravel paths and steeper rocky hills. The guides are warm, funny, and adapt to the group’s pace. I highly recommend booking one ATV per person — it’s so worth it. Afterwards, you’re dropped off directly at Norðurflug for the helicopter tour. The flight offers breathtaking views of the ocean, city, mountains, hot springs, and recent volcanic fields. We landed between snowy mountains near hot springs, where we took a quick look around. You can take photos as you please an I think it’s definitely worth the price — I’d recommend it to anyone and would even do it again anytime.
It was my first time on quad bikes, and I absolutely loved it! Everything was perfectly organized and thought out down to the smallest detail. I want to give a special thanks to my amazing guide, Weronika — she was truly exceptional! Friendly, patient, and professional, she made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Her positive energy and care for every detail really stood out. It was also my first time flying in a helicopter, and I enjoyed it so much. The helicopter pilot was fascinating as well!
We had the absolute best time on our Safari Quads adventure, and a huge part of that was thanks to Weronika! From the very beginning, she made everyone feel welcome and at ease. Her instructions were super clear and easy to follow, which made us feel confident even if we didn’t have much ATV experience. What stood out the most was her energy and enthusiasm — she kept the whole group smiling and laughing while also making sure we were safe and comfortable. She shared fun facts about the area and knew the best spots for photos, so we came away with great memories and some amazing pictures. Also wanted to thank Arthur who picked us up from our hotel. If you’re booking with Safari Quads, I can’t recommend Weronika enough. She’s knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire tour unforgettable. Thank you, Weronika, for making our day such a memorable adventure!
Double the fun on this adventure! Leaves you wanting more! Always felt very safe thanks to the guides. More speed, more mud and more water! 🙂 Helicopter was a breathtaking experience. Loved it!
Absolutely incredible! The guide was so kind and helpful. We had a brilliant time! We will absolutely visit again, Thank you.
Pickup was provided and arrived on time. Weather was wet and some participants cancelled so we ended up with a private tour with our guide, Arthur. He thoroughly explained the operation as I had never driven an ATV before. He was great! We had a wonderful time. Reached the top of a mountain over Reykjavik. Great view. Our time was good so we were able to take a longer ride back. The trail went through tall Lupine and was very pretty. Arthur then drove us to domestic airport for our helicopter adventure which surpassed expectations!!
My wife and I had an amazing time with Safari Quads. The instructor was professional and very knowledgeable. He made sure we were safe at all times and allowed us to enjoy a carefree ATV adventure. Highly recommended. Our helicopter excursion was equally amazing. Our pilot was also professional, knowledgeable and super funny. We had a wonderful time. Also highly recommended!!!
4 stars for the ATV - they were amazing and on time. Loved the trail ride. Only issue was the driver took us back to the hotel instead of to the helicopter. We had to remind him that they were supposed to transfer us to the helicopter. 1 star for the helicopter - what was supposed to be a 45 minute flight was barely 20 minutes. The pilot never said a word to the 5 people in the helicopter during the flight. We stopped at the top of a lake for a few minutes and still not a single word from the pilot. No introduction no narrative about our surroundings. Nothing. We didn’t stop long because the wind was so bad. Then went back to the airport. I realize the weather was an issue but I feel like he could’ve taken us to see other sights or communicated why we only had a 15 minute flight. I feel like I should be reimbursed for part of this excursion.
The team at Safari Quads are so friendly, professional and a delight to meet. I have now done two sessions with them of two hours each and going back again before my flight home. Great adventures off road and simply stunning scenery. The guides who took me out were absolutely top notch. The helicopter trip today was one of the highlights of my holiday. The pilot was brilliant and very knowledgeable. Today's weather was beautiful and I am still on a high from the ride two hours later. Thoroughly recommend both trips.
Genuinely one of the best days of my life. Wish the ATV was longer. Was just getting into it when it was time to head back but it was great fun. The sunrise views over the snowy mountains were spectacular. Then on to the airport for one of the best ever experiences. Simply amazing. Its not the cheapest trip, but worth every penny and highly recommend. Yes maybe it leaves you wanting more as both trips are only an hour, but its nice to leave half a day free as many other trips are full day trips and which can mean a busy schedule!
This was an amazing experience!! The guide was lovely and took photos for everyone. The driver was so lovely and went out of his way to help our group. 10/10 would recommend if you like activities like this!
Amazing time on the atv’s followed by the helicopter ride. Staff was great and the weather was perfect for the excursions. Really glad I booked this!
The ATV tour was great despite the weather! Our guide made sure everyone felt comfortable with the speed of the group and kept everyone safe. I do wish there was an option to choose an experience level on ATVs when booking tho. Having beginners in the same group as 20+ years experienced riders can be challenging at times. Overall it was a great experience!! There ended up being a storm that rolled in faster than expected at the time of our helicopter tour, but the pilot came over and talked to us and offered to reschedule. When he found out that my husband is learning to fly, he brought us out to the hangar to look at the different helos they have. We rescheduled for the next day and had perfect weather! The views were amazing!!
Both trips were outstanding! We recommend both if you want to experience the Reykjavik area!! Very professional staff and tour guides...you won't be disappointed!
The atv experts awesome and so was the helicopter ride! This was so much fun and to do both together was an amazing way to start my day.
On the day we went, the weather was not very good. I think it is more suitable to play ATV in this kind of weather. The staff on the day explained in detail, and the helicopter trip I booked was canceled due to weather factors, and the staff also have Remind me to get a refund.
We had a great time on this activity. It was very well organised and great fun . The only downside was the helicopter ride was quite short and there was no explanation of where we were flying to. Great views of the city but that’s all really. We would do the Atvs again but not the helicopter ride .
Good for beginners who’ve never driven ATVs and the Heli was super fun! Definitely a great experience.
Great tour combo, we were picked up near the hotel and supplied with all the gear needed for keeping warm and dry on the quads. Our guide Damos was great and we were on some off road trails and got a nice view of the city. Then they brought us to the helicopter base. Awesome one hour flight in a nice helicopter with very good pilot. Flew over the Blue Lagoon, Reykjavík, the recent volcano and lava fields and landed on an old lava field. Great experience!
Great experience and everyone was very nice and accommodating! Got some great photos and had a blast with the guides. Kris and Nordurflug pilot.
The staff at the ATV centre were absolutely fantastic in organising the trip, providing the equipment and briefing, then taking us on the snowy tour. They went above and beyond to get us to the airport for the helicopter trip. Which was fantastically amazing. Totally recommend this trip.
Friendly staff Hanna was awesome. Thank you really cool. Pick up on time along with drop off. Windy at the top but beautiful site to see
The riding of the ATV's was absolutely great, riding the the hills of Iceland 🇮🇸, unfortunately the helicopter ride was canceled due to weather, and they were precise in letting me. But the guides for the ATV's were great.
I can say that was one of the best day of my life!! Kek was a really great and fun atv guide and the nordurflug helicopter tours has a very professional and supportive team!! Worthy every single penny!!
