About this experience
Don’t miss your chance to shape a one-of-a-kind journey through Iceland’s wild side with this Private Wildcard Adventure tour.
Iceland’s weather is famously unpredictable — sunshine can turn to snow in minutes, and wind can reshape entire plans. That’s why we created the Private Wildcard Adventure: a flexible, experience-driven trip that adapts to the conditions of the day while still delivering awe-inspiring scenery and thrilling exploration.
With years of local knowledge behind us, we study the weather and road conditions daily to decide where it’s best — and safest — to go. Instead of being tied to a rigid itinerary, you’ll get the freedom to follow the best opportunities for adventure as they unfold. Maybe we’ll venture into the mystical Þórsmörk valley, explore the surreal landscapes around Landmannalaugar, or drive up close to the mighty Eyjafjallajökull glacier. Each tour is unique because no two days in Iceland are ever the same.
You’re welcome to let us know where you’d like to go — or leave it in our hands and let the day surprise you. Either way, we promise an unforgettable experience tailored to the weather, the season, and your sense of adventure.
This tour is perfect for travelers who value spontaneity, flexibility, and the thrill of the unknown. Whether you’re chasing waterfalls, soaking in natural hot springs, or hiking colorful rhyolite mountains, the Wildcard Adventure is your key to discovering Iceland beyond the guidebooks.
Possible destinations include:
- Þórsmörk valley
- Eyjafjallajökull glacier
- Landmannalaugar
- Hekla volcano
- Þjórsárdalur valley
- Fjallabak
- Laugavegur
- South Coast and more…

The super jeep tour in Thorsmörck delivered exactly what was promised and was worth every penny. Our guide, Jakob, was fantastic—super nice, easy to talk to, and he made the hours pass by so quickly. The lunch provided was also delicious. Thank you for a memorable day!

We did the 5hr buggy buggy tour today, by far the best day in Iceland so far. Alejandro was an absolute amazing guide, seen waterfalls, caves, and a glacier that we would have never seen otherwise. Alejandro also took us on an incredible hike to one of the falls. He’s knowledge of the area was superb. Highly recommended over all the other tours.

Absolute number 1 excursion we have ever done! Our Eyjafjallajökull Snowmobiling Tour with Southcoast Adventures was an absolute highlight of our trip to Iceland—and we travel a lot! We spent about 2 hours on the snowmobiles and covered a huge portion of the glacier. Riding all the way to the top to experience the intense wind and the breathtaking views was unforgettable. Our guides, Ale and Martin, were phenomenal. Ale was incredibly patient and helpful while teaching us how to operate the machines. Even when we managed to tip our snowmobile over, they handled it perfectly. Their attitudes throughout the entire tour were tremendous. This truly felt like a once-in-a-lifetime outing. I cannot recommend this adventure and this team highly enough!

We’ve been coming to Iceland for years, and this was hands down the best experience/tour we’ve ever done here. Our snowmobiling tour with Magnús and Steinar was incredible from start to finish. They were fun, kind, knowledgeable, and clearly true experts at what they do. This was our first time snowmobiling, and they made us feel completely comfortable while still making the whole experience exciting and memorable. The location was awesome, the views were breathtaking, and we were lucky to have great weather. But what really made the tour special was Magnús and Steinar. We had so much actual time on the snowmobiles, learned a lot about Iceland, and genuinely enjoyed the conversations along the way. You can tell when guides love what they do and care about giving people a great experience. This was our first snowmobiling tour, but it definitely will not be our last. Huge thank you to Magnús and Steinar!!!
