“It’s just like jet-skiing!”
That was the number one tip our guide told us. Whether it be like jet-skiing or lumber-jacking, we’re not too fussed.
This is snowmobiling! On a Glacier! And in Iceland, no less!

We booked the Golden Circle and Glacier Ride tour with Arctic Adventures. The Golden Circle tour, which took part in the morning, deserves another post.
For now, we fast forward to the afternoon. Because that’s when the action starts!
First of all, look at this massive super jeep that they picked us up in!
I sure felt like the king gangsta of Reykjavik when we were picked up early in the morning from our hotel.
The reflective all-weather suit was provided, along with helmets and gloves. One thing I noticed and loved was how clean the clothing and equipment are. They almost seemed brand new, or newly cleaned. Either way, it is very impressive.
Same with the line up of snowmobiles. All in perfect condition. It was easy for me to choose which snowmobile to go to. Yellow is my lucky colour 🙂
Now watch us go!
Ok that’s not really watching us go because a blog post on snowmobiling isn’t complete without THIS: (watch in HD!)
Ps doesn’t Zombie look so cool vroom vrooming with spectacles on 🙂
If it isn’t that evident yet from our smiling eyes and nostrils, let me tell you that we totally had so much fun! It was the first time for us both to be snowmobiling and I say it’s never too late to have this much fun 🙂
Definitely one of our memorable afternoons in Iceland!

We took this Glacier Snowmobiling tour in conjunction with the Golden Circle and Glacier Ride Day Tour from Arctic Adventures.
Sounds awesome. I’ll be in Iceland in a week and a half. Can’t wait. I will definitely check out this tour. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Tasha! Winter in Iceland! Make sure you pack warm 🙂 It’s going to be so awesome am very excited for you. Highly recommend snowmobiling. have fun 🙂
SUPER jealous!!
That looks like so much fun!!!!
Yes Sam super duper fun, though at one point I almost bounced off the seat when we hit an ice bump! hahah! just added to the excitement 🙂
This looks like great fun. I also bet the ride is a lot smoother than a jet ski.
BTW, the orange outfit seems to suit you, it could be your colour?
Hi Guy, yes it was a lot of fun for sure! Well I had a scary moment there almost falling off because I was holding the Go Pro with one hand and the other clutched around my husband’s waist! Thank you, love orange too 🙂
HOW AWESOME!! You look so cool ;D What a great experience. *ping* that was the sound of it landing on “my list” 😀
Yes this was one of the most awesome and exhilirating experiences I’ve had. You won’t regret putting it on your list! 🙂
Haha you should have that on your list it was quite an amazing adventure!
