Icelandic Horseback Riding Tour from Reykjavik

My sister and I had a wonderful time one our Viking Iceland horse ride. My sister is not a rider and they matched her to a wonderful horse that took good care of her. I got a little mare with big personality. She was great! She came into frame when I asked, leg yielded around turns on the trail and had amazing gaits. She was eager to work and please me, which she did! This tour is great for experienced riders and non riders alike. And the red lava and forest scenery is gorgeous!

Great experience w/ Icelandic horses! The staff selected horses perfect for rider’s ability. They also allowed more experienced riders to canter at the end of the 2 hr ride. The leader took photos of each group & sent to us. They picked us up at our hotel which was really a bonus as I wouldn’t have been able to get out w/o renting a car. Highly recommend if you want a riding experience

An absolutely perfect experience from start to finish! The Icelandic horses were gorgeous, calm, and well-trained, making the ride feel completely safe and enjoyable. Riding through the breathtaking volcanic landscapes and lush forest areas was unforgettable, and experiencing their unique, smooth gait—the tölt—was a true highlight. Afterwards, the transfer to Sky Lagoon was seamless, and soaking there was the ultimate way to relax and wrap up the adventure. Highly recommended!

As a lifelong equine professional and someone who guided trail rides in their youth, I wanted an experience that fit my skill level! Viggo as kind and put up with my many inquiries beforehand. We settled on a one hour private ride with pickup from Reykjavík and added a Skye Lagoon package for myself & mother. My guide MH was excellent and fun to ride with!

Ania was a wonderful guide. The horses were beautiful and we had a great horse ride for our family of four. Two of us were done by end but the other two wanted to go faster so she took them out for some faster tolting. This was expensive but truly worth it!

What a great time. They picked us up at the hotel downtown which was nice and it was a short ride to the stables. The guides were great and made sure everyone was comfortable. Definitely something we would do again.

I didn't want to leave Iceland without riding an Icelandic horse, so this was a great 1.5 hour morning trail ride before my afternoon flight. The horses were well behaved and super affectionate. My horse, Nota, was so cool because she was always ready for a tolt. I liked that Viking was able to pick me up and drop me off from my specified location. That was very convenient because I didn't have to worry about finding the place, which was only 20 minutes from Reykjavik. The guides were very nice and they they took us to beautiful trails. They also, took photos and sent them to us through WhatsApp. I highly recommend this experience if you are in Iceland.
