Just to keep it clear...These are NOT standard
super jeep trips...In some of
the tours you get to
drive the jeep yourself!!!
Arctic Adventures
is the first travel company in Iceland to offer self drive super jeep
day trips combined with some of our great eco adventures. On the self
drive
tours you get to drive on exciting highland trails on modified 4x4
vehicles (Land Rover Defender 110, with huge 38" tires, a snorkel, VHF
radio intercommunication, GPS device and an air compressor) which have
been especially
designed for Iceland´s demanding terrain.
With the help of these giant vehicles,
participants can discover glaciers, deserts, lava fields but also some
of Iceland´s main attraction, like the glacier valley of Þórsmörk and
the highlights of the Golden Circle.
Participants are accompanied by a leading
vehicle if there are many Land Rovers on track together. Otherwise
there is a professional certified Iceland guide in the jeep with the
passengers,
ensuring safety and giving everyone detailed information about the
country,
its nature, culture or whatever you are curious about.
To reduce the impact of our vehicles on our
beautiful but sensitive Icelandic nature we have teamed up with
Icelandic New
Energy (www.newenergy.is)
and the Icelandic Carbon Fund Kolvidur (www.kolvidur.is). For
every driven kilometer we support these companies with their ongoing
projects here in Iceland.
If you don´t feel like driving yourself, you can ask the guide to drive
the jeep for you at all times without any extra charge, or simply choose
some of our driver guided Super Jeep tours.
