Family Ride with Kids
Viggo was wonderful - very accommodating and knowledgable. The horses were just so lovely and the ride was perfect in terms of length and speed. We had a 10 year old with us, and she had an amazing time as well. We were relatively inexperienced riders, and Viggo was great at explaining everything we needed to know. Highly recommend!

Private tour with Viking Horses
This was a truly wonderful experience. The whole experience from pickup, arrival at the stable, the ride, and drop off was just perfect. My guide was very professional and knowledgeable, and I felt safe the whole time even though my prior experience with horses was rather limited. Thank you and I hope to come back again!

Amazing Horse + Spa experience
I had the absolute pleasure of experiencing the Viking Horsing with the Spa package, and it was nothing short of incredible! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, blending adventure, and ultimate relaxation.

My favorite Iceland experience
We had a great time with Viking horses! We were picked up directly from our hotel, matched with horses for our skill level and had a wonderful time! The views were fantastic and the horses were so even tempered and sweet! I would highly recommend!
