About this experience
Amazing unique tour of combination of lava fields and geothermal landscapes. Here you will begin your day by being picked up by the buggy operator and taken to their new headquarters and be briefed to go over safety instructions. You can even have a free cup of coffee at their base camp. You will set your journey through lava fields and venture to Hellisheidi Geothermal power plant. The power plant provides electricity and hot water to the whole capital of Iceland Reykjavik. You will see the skiing mountains of Reykjavik called Blue Mountains. We will ascend to Hengill Mountain range and see a fantastic view through all the steams coming from all around the Geothermal power plant.

Awesome way to end our Iceland
We had an amazing time and couldn’t have had a better way to end our 13-day road trip through Iceland. The buggies go faster than you might expect, and the common rain in Iceland only adds an additional layer to the amazing experience. We also had an amazing guide, Daria, who even took the time to record an awesome video. Definitely worth the money, seeing lava fields from a distance is cool, but actually drive through them, is an experience you have to have, words wil not be able to describe it.

Why this scores 77
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
2.5 HR Off-Road Tour Buggy Lava Field Adventure from Reykjavik: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reykjavik.
How much does 2.5 HR Off-Road Tour Buggy Lava Field Adventure from Reykjavik cost?
+
Prices start at $235 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Reykjavik usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2.5 HR Off-Road Tour Buggy Lava Field Adventure from Reykjavik take?
+
Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Reykjavik is not rushed.
Is 2.5 HR Off-Road Tour Buggy Lava Field Adventure from Reykjavik worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 80 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Reykjavik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2.5 HR Off-Road Tour Buggy Lava Field Adventure from Reykjavik?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2.5 HR Off-Road Tour Buggy Lava Field Adventure from Reykjavik suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2.5 HR Off-Road Tour Buggy Lava Field Adventure from Reykjavik?
+
Around 28 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Reykjavik can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Reykjavik and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2.5 HR Off-Road Tour Buggy Lava Field Adventure from Reykjavik start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Reykjavik within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Reykjavik?
+
On Outty we rank every Reykjavik experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Reykjavik Food Walk - Local Foodie Adventure in Iceland, Small-Group Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon with Ticket & Kerid Crater, Reykjavík Small group Walking Tour - by CityWalk. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Reykjavik?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Reykjavik?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
