The Grapevine's take
Buggy Tour Grindavík
Yearning to get close to nature? A roaring buggy is not the most tranquil way to do it, but it gets you into the thick of it fast. These run on the volcanic trails around Grindavík, over ground that has been rearranged more than once in the last few years, and you reach places road-trippers only squint at through the windscreen. Overalls, helmets and gloves are provided. Dress for the weather anyway; it changes its mind quickly out there.

About this tour
Join us on an unforgettable Buggy adventure where history and raw nature meet. Starting from Grindavík, we ride out to the brand-new lava field that recently flowed into the town, a dramatic reminder of the volcanic power shaping this area.
Along the way we explore the rugged Reykjanes Peninsula, formed by an eruption in the very same place over 2000 years ago. You’ll witness the contrast between the fresh black lava and the ancient volcanic landscapes, experiencing how Grindavík has always lived in the shadow of fire and stone.
The tour takes you up close to the new craters, where we stop to admire the view and capture the moment of standing on ground that only months ago was molten lava. It’s a unique opportunity to see Grindavík’s story written both in ancient geology and in brand-new volcanic creation.
All prices are per buggy, not per person. Children prices separately.
Each buggy can seat 1–4 participants.

Komdu með okkur í ógleymanlegt ævintýri á Buggy þar sem saga og hrá náttúra mætast. Við leggjum af stað frá Grindavík og hjólum út að glænýju hraunbreiðunni sem nýlega rann við bæinn, sem er dramatísk áminning um eldvirkni sem mótar þetta svæði.
Á leiðinni skoðum við Reykjanes, sem myndaðist í eldgosi á sama stað fyrir meira en 2000 árum. Þú munt verða vitni að andstæðunum milli fersks svarts hraunsins og forns eldfjallalandslags og upplifa hvernig Grindavík hefur alltaf lifað í skugga elds og steins.
Ferðin tekur þig nær nýju gígunum, þar sem við stoppum til að dást að útsýninu og fanga augnablikið þegar við stöndum á jörðu sem fyrir aðeins mánuðum var bráðið hraun. Þetta er einstakt tækifæri til að sjá sögu Grindavíkur ritaða bæði í fornri jarðfræði og í glænýrri eldvirkni.
Öll verð eru á Buggy, ekki á mann. Verð fyrir börn er sérstaklega tekin fram.
Hver Buggy rúmar 1–4 aðila.
Því fleiri sem þú deilir Buggy með, því lægri er kostnaðurinn á mann.
