Although there was a misunderstanding with my booking and it was mistakenly canceled by the ride company; Ragga made it right by me and I had my tour. It was great! Only 3 of us on the ride, the guide was so friendly and personable, the weather was agreeable and the horses friendly! I would highly recommend this company for... More

Small groups, nice and friendly horses and very caring instructors, spending a lot of time explaining the horses, what to expect, the landscape and also live in Iceland in general. We had a great time and would always come back!

We did the lava tour and it was brilliant. The horses were all well behaved. It doesn't matter if you haven't ridden before as all the horses follow each other. The staff were all very friendly and helpful.

Super day with Regga and Matilde (who is danish which were excellent for our two boys on 9 and 11 who does not speak English). You can really feel that each visitor matters to them from the booking, the pick-up in the landrover, to the trip in the beautiful area! Highly recommended.

We spent the morning of our last day in Iceland with Viking Horses. We were picked up at our hotel and dropped off at the bus station to catch the Flybus to the airport at the end of our ride. We three seniors were definitely not experienced riders - the last time we had ridden, if at all, was 35... More

Horses are lovely natured and surprising strong and fast despite being small. Scenery is unparalleled and guide was enthusiastic and friendly. Small group size makes for a more personal experience, shame it wasn't a bit longer

Ragga and her crew were fantastic. I had read many Tripadvisor reviews on Viking Horses before I booked our tour. It had snowed the day before so the ground was covered in snow but the skies were clear and sunny. In the car ride over I was talking about "Dreamer", the horse I had read about on Tripadvisor and then... More

Many thanks to Ragga for a really enjoyable (if short) ride. The next time I am back in Reykjavik, I will definitely want to go for a longer ride. The entire experience, from pick up to drop off, was problem free and totally enjoyable. If you like horses, you will love these beautiful Icelandic horses with their good manners and... More
