This was a fun activity but you sort of just go around in circles. There were Glacier views from very far, and we went over a narrow stream of water. No beach no ice. But it was fun and the views of mountains and glaciers were lovely.

We loved this so much! We had originally planned to do the snowmobiling but there was insufficient snow. Luckily, they had this buggy option. It’s a perfect activity for a day when the weather isn’t fantastic. We saw great scenery, walked behind a waterfall and drove through water that washed over the buggy! They provide you with helmets, goggles and an oversuit. Make sure you have very warm and waterproof boots and good gloves. I was glad I had a rain jacket under their suit as water will splash up into the suit and go down your shirt.
Epic!!!! Say yes to their gear and wear warm waterproof and wind proof underneath. Clover was the best!!! Dreamy time!!
We had originally reserved an Eyjafjallajökull Snowmobile Tour with Southcoast Adventure, but unfortunately, due to insufficient snow, our tour was canceled. Southcoast Adventure promptly offered us a full refund or four alternative tour options as substitutes. What began as a disappointment turned into an incredible experience when we chose the 2.5-hour buggy tour. Our guides, Dori and Robert, were absolutely fantastic—knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about the outdoors. They were excellent at answering our questions and ensuring we had an unforgettable experience. The tour felt semi-private, with only two couples, including us, which made it even more special. The adventure took us through a frozen river, to a stunning waterfall, and into a captivating cave. The landscapes were breathtakingly beautiful—just like everything else in Iceland. If you're looking for an amazing tour, we highly recommend the buggy/UTV tour. A big plus was that Southcoast Adventure provided weather- and wind-proof clothing, which was essential for our mid-November tour. Despite the cold and windy conditions, we thoroughly enjoyed every moment. You won’t be disappointed!
Awesome tour! Excellent guide! We drove to a beautiful waterfall. Highly recommend! It’s past the Seljalandsfoss waterfall. Also there is a DC-3 plane wreck nearby to view. It’s not the Beach DC-3 wreck but a nice addition.
Our family did the 2-1/2 hour buggy tour with Southcoast Adventures and loved it! The 1000cc buggies were plenty powerful with great suspension for a nice ride. Splashing through cold glacier streams was very fun! We saw an amazing glacier up close, and the geologist tour guy was educational, too!! Highly recommend this buggy tour in Iceland
We did the 2 hour buggy and holy moly cannot believe the day we have had! Not only was Birdie the absolute best guide I have ever had in my life but the buggy tour is the only way to see and truly appreciate Iceland, its the perfect balance of adventure, information, adrenalin and so much more! The tour was so incredible I didn't want it to end. As a first time driver of a buggy I was a bit unsure of the driving but Birdie made sure I was safe the whole time and honestly it was best experiance of my life.
Actually did the 2.5 hour buggy ride. Buggies were top quality. They provide you with everything you need: suits for warmth, helmet, goggles and gloves. Staff is friendly and helpful. Terrains we drove in were simply amazing. Thanks for a fantastic time!
Unfortunately they cancelled our snowmobile activity which we anticipated so much. They told us on a superb and excellent weather condition day that their cars were stuck and they could not give us a lift up to the snowmobiles in the mountain. -Lack of Hospitality -Lack of Communication -Old buggy not well maintained with smokes coming out from coolant leakage. ——————————- Instructor was with us in the back seat to instruct how to drive a buggy in the middle of a field. SAVE YOUR Selfs from this touristic boring trap.
The guys at Southcoast Adventures were amazing!! Maggi took real good care of mom while we played a little harder. By far one of the BEST experiences. Would definitely do it again.
It is approx. 2 hours from Reykjavik and the buggy ride was fantastic fun, we had with us children of 5 years and all agreed that this was great fantastic fun for the hole family so this is recommended.
Great tour with Magnús. We were four lady's all well over 50 years old and and we enjoyed it a lot. Great fun and great service!
Our teens loved it Magnus the guide was reallt great. However while on the road the buggy went out of gas. The kids waited for 40 minutes till the gas came. Noons notified us. When i complaint they said this things happens and there was no compensation. Even worst the person in charge called Mario was insulting and told us that we need to be patient when we do activities and that its normal ro run out of gas in a one hour tour1
The main thing was how much fun it was to drive the buggies, the second is the views of the valley and the nature around. Highly recommend, they go to areas the cars are not able to get you. You are provided with all the gear you need, except you need to bring your camera/cameraphone along!
We had a great buggy ride experience today. It was really fun, and we saw some beautiful waterfalls and sightseeing. Make sure you have waterproof shoes as you will get wet, driving through streams and rivers. They give you waterproof overalls, gloves, helmets and balaclavas. Great company, great tour, highly recommend it!
