We actually visited in June 2019.... but better late than never as I just came across the business card. Patrick was our guide and we have 2 teenage daughters.

*Escape the crowds - private tour* Experience the Icelandic horse tradition on a small farm, located just 20 minutes from downtown Reykjavik. Despite being so close to the city, you will feel like you are deep in the countryside when you arrive at the farm. There just a small number of horses here and tours are always operated just for you and your private group, so that they have an intimate, personal and authentic feel. We will take you on a horse riding tour to Thormodsdale,  where you can admire the scenery while spending time with our friendly horses. This tour is an excellent tour for those with some good riding experience, how want to take on a little bit longer and more challenging ride. Due to the length of the ride there will be plenty of time to try the different gaits and really get to know the Icelandic horse and explore the environment that has shaped him into what he is to day.  Riding time is 2,5-3 hours

Inclusions: Local guide, Use of helmet, Private tour, Light refreshments

Exclusions: We require our guests to be able to mount the horses them selfs.

We had a great day with Linnéa. We were lucky and had a private tour, nice weather and a beautiful landscape. Linnéa picked two perfect horses for us, told us a lot about the surrounding and helped us enjoying the ride. After the ride we got a hot chocolate and cookies, so... A perfect day for us. We definitely recommend this place. Thanx Linnéa ????

If you love dogs and/ or the Islandic countryside then this a must for you. The crew were extremely friendly, and having dealt with dogs for many years I can confirm they are loved and well looked-after ... definitely family members, not beasts of burden by any means. If you have the time take this trip even if there is no snow, it is definitely woth it and - I imagine that COVID 19 has also had a detrimental impact on the dogsledding business too - help support their livelyhood and help their fourlegged friends in the process :-)

Booked with Gray Line on the train to our Cruise Ship as prices on board for our family party of 7 were very high.The date was set and they said pick up would be at the port where we docked. It all went to plan and the 7 hour trip with an excellent guide Simon was all we could have wished for. We stopped about an hour at each site with time to buy refreshments if required but honestly no one wanted to waste time with that when fabulous natural wonders were on offer!
