★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 438 reviews · 6 hours (approx.) · from $290

Take on Iceland’s East Glacial River with drysuits, class IV rapids, canyon views, expert guides, and a lamb lunch from Akureyri.

“This was the highlight of my Iceland trip. Very professional organization by a small company dedicated to white water rafting. Very experienced guides (the lead guide Mark has been doing trips on the same river since 2007) who intimately know the rafts as well as every rapid on the way. There were many type 2 and 3 rapids, one 4+. Enough fun for the whole duration of 3 hours on the water. The guides are also happy to have some controlled action e.g. by having the team deliberately paddle upstream into a rapid. If you want to have an "out of boat experience" you will get it. Will be more…”

“Great day out, brilliant value for money. Communication before the trip was brilliant, pick up easy & each activity was great. It’s quite a long day out - and we didn’t get ‘lunch’ until 17:00, eat before you go! There is a place to eat about 14:00, but you have to pay for the drinks/snacks. Our trip was guided by Hajjar, the canyoning was brilliant, it was just the two of us & him. The buggy trip was more than expected, great fun, very muddy! The day was activity to activity, with no time to access personal belongings which meant we went all day without suncream - highly recommend bringing…”
