My friends and I had a great experience during the one hour Icelandic horseback riding tour. We went around the mountains and saw some beautiful views. The horses were lovely and a joy to ride with. Our guide Amanda was very friendly and informative. She was able to teach us how to control the horses to ensure a smooth ride during the entire experience. The prices were average and well worth it. We didn’t book in advance so luckily they were able to accommodate my group of 5. I would definitely recommend this horseback riding experience in Iceland. You won’t get to see these beautiful horses anywhere else.

We stumbled upon Kerid volcanic crater while self-driving the Golden Circle and are pleased that we did - colours of the surrounds and the water were sensational. If the weather had been kinder and our timetable had allowed I’d have loved to walk the rim and the lake, both of which are possible and allow amazingly different views. Kerid is about 3,000 years old (half as old as most volcanos in Iceland) which is why - or so I have been led to believe - the iron deposits are still such a rich red rather than blackened. Really crimson, even on our cloudy day. Parking was free, 400Kr entrance fee, which was completely worth it.
