Had an absolutely amazing day exploring Þórsmörk with our guide, Lorenzo! He was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire experience unforgettable. I highly recommend this tour and would gladly book another adventure with both Lorenzo and the company in the future.

Itinerary
Seljalandsfoss is one of the most visited waterfalls in Iceland. This 66m (213ft) high waterfall is not the most powerful waterfall in Iceland but extremely beautiful. What makes it special, though, is the fact that you can walk behind it. Just remember to bring rain gear with you because it is not unlikely that spray from the waterfall will catch you.
By now you have entered the beautiful Surroundings of Þórsmörk. Gígjökull is an outlet that flows from Eyjafjallajökull. Previously, there was a glacial lagoon underneath the glacier, which was one of the gems of Þórsmörk, but it got destroyed in the famous 2010 Eyjafjalla volcanic eruption. therefore today it is possible to drive on the former bottom of the lagoon almost up to the glacier.
Here we hike! Hiking up Valahnúkur is relatively easy 220m (722ft) ascent hike and takes about an hour and a half. When you are up there you are standing in an elevation of around 1000m (3300ft) with a spectacular view over valleys and gorges covered with moss and birch forest, glacial rivers and the glaciers Mýrdalsjökull and Eyjafjallajökull.
Básar - The hikers wonderland Básar is one of the most beautiful and sheltered areas in the Þórsmörk – an oasis of natural birch woods. It is a wonderland for hikers with hiking trails and paths in all directions, through valleys and gorges with delicate birch forest, glacial rivers and magnificent mountain scenery.

Had a great day tour with Tomas / Glaciers & Waterfalls to the Þórsmörk area with super jeep. Originally I booked the Landmannalaugar tour, but as roads were still closed, Glaciers and Waterfalls offered a full day tour with several stops and hikes to the Þórsmörk area. The tour was fantastic and Tomas is a perfect and very friendly and helpful guide and driver. Highly recommendable!!
Excellent experience! The guide is very nice!
Lorenzo was a great and patient guide who helped me throughout all trails and hikes
Lorenzo was a great tour guide, very helpful and informative
What a stellar intro to Iceland, with a great balance of activity and natural beauty! Lorenzo was a great guide - keeping us informed and entertained - and nailing his Icelandic pronunciation of all the sights ;)
Lorenzo was probably one of the best tour guides I have had out of all my excursions in Iceland. He was really knowledgeable, friendly and super helpful with some of the people in my group who needed assistance during parts of our hike. The scenery was unreal and breathtaking. Flew by fast when you have a fun tour guide. Thank you Lorenzo!
We had an amazing tour, certainly the highlight of our trip. Our guide, Péter was very friendly and entrertaining. Would highly recommend this tour!
Excellent experience! Kalmar was a great guide, he took us to the best spots and more! He also told us some Iceland History and explained us about rocks and lava formations, super interesting. Excellent photographer. The whole tour took us nearly 7 hours. It was amazing!
What a fabulous day we had with our tour guide, Peter! He was knowledgeable, witty and showed my teenage son a great time today! Every place that he took us was breathtaking and he explained so many things to us that we never knew! 10/10, I’d choose him again to take us anywhere in Iceland!
Don’t hesitate - just book your tour with Thorsmork Super Jeep Tour. We decided to book a tour to see Pórsmörk and it was truly awesome. Our guide, Kálman Rácz, was honestly the best. He was patient and encouraging as I was more hesitant to do things that seemed risky but he literally at one point encouraged me forward - and the incredibly secret waterfall that we climbed up to was spectacular. We would have never explored this park on our own. Worth every penny (or krona). Can’t recommend this company - or Kálman - high enough. Out of 1-10, this adventure was an 11!
This tour to þorsmörk definitly exceeded all of my expectations. Not only because of the magical looking places but also because our tour guide Hjörtur was amazing. He had shown us a lot of his secrete places where you could experience the true beauty of Iceland in peace. There was more than enough time for exploring wherever we had stopped. Crossing rivers in Superjeep was so much fun, the green colour all around was unreal and the hidden waterfall was pure magic. If I had to choose a tour to go again to I would definitly choose this one with this company. Thank you again for such a great and memorable time!
Einar brought us to all the most amazing areas! Took us up 1 hike, which had amazing views and another small one! I highly recommend taking this tour! He has a solid beast of a car that took us to many great places. If you are going on this tour, bring a good wind proof jacket. Einar also offers to take photos for you. He also has an outstanding beard.
The views were amazing. Our guide einar was very knowledgeable and gave us a good overview of the landscape and the history.
Good tour guide and good experience of the area long hikes to nice locations. Was able to see sights that were previously not available.
It was an amazing tour and my guide Kalman was really friendly and explain us a lot about the history of Iceland ! Really worth it tour 💪🏽
I have lived in Iceland for two years and this is one of the best experiences I ever had. Because it's a valley harder to reach (you need a jeep) it's less touristy but the places we have seen are incredible. Our guide, Einar, was exactly what you hope to get. Very experienced, knowledgeable and always up for giving us some extra info about anything we asked. The jeep was very comfortable yet super adventurous! So happy I got to do this tour and I will recommend to anyone I can.
Thomas was a amazing guide, lead a great tour and we loved the whole day! All the sites were beautiful and the veiws were unreal. Thanks again!
Fantastic day. Thomas, our guide was amazing and took us to some hidden places with stunning scenery and wondrous things - frozen waterfalls, huge icicles, the valley from part way up a mountain. I'm not the most mobile but had no difficulty keeping up. Would recommend you put this trip to the top of your to-do list.
Thomas was a great guide, very enthusiastic and personable. It was a full day with a visit to a few waterfalls, caves, canyons, and a long hike up a mountain. These places don’t seem to be normally visited by tourists in the winter. I’m pretty sure we were the only group in the valley since the roads were rough to drive on. Would recommend this to any one looking for an in depth experience of the landscapes of Iceland. It was a little phyisically demanding but with the provided crampons and experienced guide it was a great trip.
This was a remarkable tour of the achingly beautiful Thórsmörk. Thomas, the tour guide was warm, knowledgeable and above all fun. He took us to places off the beaten track that left you stunned at the wonder of nature. If you do one tour in Iceland, do this one and ask, no demand, Thomas as your guide.
We had the best time going to the Porsmork with Einar! This region is our favorite place in Iceland and the tour was amazing! Literally we visited the most beautiful glaciers and waterfalls, also canions, rivers crossing, trekking in the mountains, was simply perfect! Our guide Einar is the most amazing guy in Iceland! Definitely I recommend this tour with Glacier and Waterfalls!!
Einar! Our dear viking guide is THE BEST and not only took us to the best places but also told many local stories on the way 💚
Incredible! What an amazing tour! The most beautiful part of South Iceland! Einar is the best guide in all Iceland!
Einar is amazing!!! He is a great guide and he was able to show us great places in an amazing truck that went through the rivers. We had a great time hicking and flying the drone!!!!
Our trip to Thorsmork Valley with Einar was everything we could have wanted and more. Beautiful canyons, waterfalls, glaciers, and Mountain Views. Einar was a fabulous guide! 10/10, excellent trip!
Peter was a wonderful guide who came with us at every single hiking. He was so kind, explaining everything and taking photos of us. The experience with the jeep crossing rivers was perfect. Some hikings were challenging but the reward worth it. Being with few people makes the experience very calmed and let's you enjoy with time every spot you visit.
Peter is an amazing guide. He took us on a beautiful scenic tour of so many hidden gems. He’s very knowledgeable, and attentive to his clients. He also took many gorgeous photos for ua. I hope to another tour with this group someday! Je recommande très fort—super guide, prévoyant, et connaisseur de la région. Très à l’aise aussi avec son super jeep!
What an amazing tour, certainly the hightlight of our trip. My husband and I were mesmerized by all the places that we visited. A big thank you to the best guide in all Iceland Einar. We strongly recommend that tour for your trip in Iceland.
Every part was a delight and amazing. From the punctual pickup to the amazing sites and tracks. Einar Samuelson was so helpful!
Peter picked us up at scheduled time and went with us on hikes. We are not experienced hikers! So having someone leads us was very assuring and he takes great pics.
Thorsmark is a truly magical place, and Einar's knowledge of the area, and Iceland in general, only made it more special. I had done some research before hand and had a list of places to go. Einar took us to them all and then some! We're an adventurous family and Einar comfortably pushed our boundaries. We saw birds nesting on the sides of cliffs, Insta worthy landscapes, etc. He even provided us with gloves to grab the chain to scale the side of a cavern to see an amazing waterfall. We stayed at the Volcano Huts, so Einar dropped us there that night. Honestly was one of our BEST days in Iceland!
Péter was an amazing guide. He brought us to amazing places in and around Porsmork and provided interesting facts around the area. We enjoyed the whole tour and all of the hikes.
This tour was absolutely stellar. We could go home happy after just this one day. Peter was knowledgeable and personable and he adjusted the tour to our group. We would happily have him for our guide for our next tour. During it, we saw waterfalls that were beyond description and stunning views. We went off the beaten path and avoided any crowds. If you want a unique and personal experience, this is it!
This was hands down one of the best daytrips I have taken in Iceland so far. Not only was the nature amazing and breathtaking (obviously) - but the group size was ideal, our guide Peter was considering all our needs and different fitness levels and the itinerary felt really well thought through.. to see places off the beaten track this was a perfect trip 👌
It has been an amazing experience, where Einar showed us every hidden place of this amazing part of Iceland and toke us in unique hikings and spots. No words to describe the beautiful landscapes we have seen.
This was not our first choice of trip but the lagoons were pretty full and we thought we would give it a go. What a great decision! Our guide Tom gave us tons of information and made us feel completely at ease. The truck was comfy and even with mobility issues I managed to get in and out with the aid of a portable step. The scenery was breathtaking and the ice Cream stop on the way home topped off a perfect trip
Tom was an incredible tour guide during our 11 hour journey through Porsmork and the surrounding area. We saw hidden waterfalls, drove over the Fjord in a giant Jeep, experienced glaciers up close, and hiked up a nearby ridge with a gorgeous 360 view of the surrounding valleys. Tom told us about the history of Iceland on the way over and was very supportive during our hikes, allowing us to go at our own pace and even saved me from falling into a small stream. Even the smoked lamb sandwiches from the rest stop on the way tasted amazing, and to cap it all off we grabbed ice cream on the way back to Reykjavik. I can't recommend this tour enough- if you have just one day in Reykjavik this tour with Tom is a MUST.
An excellent day exploring this beautiful country. Tom was an excellent guide and made the day really easy
That was the most amazing tour I have ever been in my life :) I have been on tours with many different companies in Iceland , Glaciersandwaterfalls is the most interesting and fun company to explore Iceland with! I have tried also glacier hiking with them ! Absolutely unbelievable experience ! Einar ,our tour guide was always helpful patient and unstoppable! As an Icelander he knows every interesting area in this beautiful country and of course all the relevant information and history! He can constantly impress you in many way by showing around all the hidden spots! Also showing off his river crossing experience on a superjeep is one of his superpowers ! Definitely 100% recommended ! Cant wait for the next tour with Einar and Glaciers andwaterfalls :) Thank you 😽 I had the most amazing time in my whole life 😻
Amazing experience with the best guide ever. Einar was so patient with my elderly parents who could not walk far or on difficult terrain. He also helped me literally every step of the way when we traipsed through rivers and jumped on rocks to visit all the hidden spots off the beaten track. This is the most adventurous trip we've ever been on and Einar kept things safe and fun even when they were also challenging. Wouldn't have been able to really get a taste of Iceland without Einar's experience, knowledge and passion for what he does. Worth every moment. I would recommend this tour or any tour with Einar wholeheartedly.
The tour was just amazing - loaded with beautiful views, exciting hikes and stunning waterfalls. Einar guided us perfectly through this day! I would not hesitate a second to recommend him and also this tour to anyone who plans a trip to Iceland
Amazing adventure, my favorite activity in Iceland for the summer. Great experience, something very unique and with the great tour guides
Einar and James were amazing! They take you to the best spots, know a lot about the place and are quite frankly pretty awesome guys with super cool trucks!
Tom was a great guide! Very knowledgeable and friendly. My spouse and I were able to get some great shots of some awesome views. Many places we were the only people there. It was a unique experience. Would highly recommend!
Wow what an adventure, our guide Einar showed us some amazing spots in Porsmock. We did everything from traversing caves jumping between rocks trying to avoid getting our feet wet (which i failed at),To seeing glaciers and hidden waterfalls. One of our Hikes took us to the summit for panoramic views of the Porsmork that i won't soon forget.
Absolutely amazing - tour guard was amazing and helpful and funny . HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!!!!!!!! 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great trip with amazing views over Thorsmørk. We had great weather and did a very nice hike deeper in the valley. Very beautiful and totally worth the trip
This tour was superb. We went in a classic Range Rover Defender that was modified to be a super jeep with large tires, modified suspension, gear box, and differentials. Our tour guide Pedro was very entertaining and energetic during the whole journey and told us lots about Icelandic history and culture. Pedro was knowledgeable about everything from the super jeep itself to the valley itself. We enjoyed the drive across the rivers and valley. We also enjoyed the hikes to the top of the mountains and the views from the top were just amazing. We got some of the most amazing pictures on this trip. Keep up the great work!
Absolutely amazing trip and tour guide...Einar the best!!! Þórsmörk area for sure one of the most beautiful places
