Bicycle tours

We design our experiences based on our passion for nature, adventure, and sustainability. Iceland's natural environment is at the core of our experiences, and we take every measure to ensure that it will be there for years to come. We demonstrate our ambitions for sustainability through our practices, basing our products on local expertise and immersive discovery by foot or bike rather than long-distance driving and destination sampling.  Our trips are hand-crafted with the exploring adventurer in mind; through them, we can share our passion for the stunning Troll Peninsula and the north of Iceland. All our experiences showcase the region through tours and activities and also through delicious local food and superb accommodation.  Last but not least, our people. Our local guides are our backbone. With extensive outdoor adventure experience coupled with in-depth knowledge of local stories and history, you are in good hands.  We can’t wait to show you the north we know.
