“Safe, bumpy & fast This was by far one of our favorite parts during our time here at Iceland. Lisa, our tour guide was a down to earth exciting person to have guided us in this buggy experience. I was terrified but she definitely assured any worries I had. I will preface with this, if you listen to the rules and listen to the guide the better the experience you will have and the faster the speeds you may go. We had some unfortunate poor souls who did not listen which affected our experience but Lisa did end up making it even more wonderful towards the end. You may think…”

We traveled in less than ideal weather, but always felt safe and secure in our travels across the country. The equipment was perfect and well kept.
