TUI Tocht te paard door IJsland

Absolutely fantastic experience, the staff really look after you from getting u geared up and a intro video about Icelandic horses to picking out a horse that suits your skills in riding (only my second time ever) and talk to you all way through the experience.... Brilliant!!

Staff were really professional and helpful whilst also keeping it fun. A wonderful way to enjoy the unique experience of riding a Viking horse in stunning scenery.

I loved every moment, everything was perfect

Lovely greeting on arrival instructions extra warmth clothing heat pads helmet given matched and mounted to my horse for trailing/cantering in icy extreme weather It was an amazing experience Hotchocolate needed afterwards staff dedicated very friendly an professional Absolutely recommended Thanks

The staff were very attentive and dealt with everyone as individuals. They took photos with our devices for us, no hard sell gift type thing as you get in the UK. Clearly the horses are well looked after and enjoy their work

Wonderful trip with the Icelandic horses worth every penny. Clear explanations. Guides were lovely and chatty. After a walk with the horses as a group we were split up so those with experience went one way and those with less experience or wanted just to walk went another we were out for about 1.30hrs to 2 hours set in a beautiful winder wonderland scenery. I would definitely book this again.

The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the horses well looked after. My only complaint was as an experienced rider, they didn't split the group up into riders and non riders, they asked everyone at first what your level was to match you with the right horse, then a short way into the ride just asked who wanted to go slow or faster, too many just said faster but could not control their horse or indeed get out of walking pace.I did speak to the staff afterwards but they said they were short staffed, so did not have enough escorts to accompany the ride. Also said I should have booked the Viking tour if I wanted to get the full experience, this would have gave me the ride I was expecting.I explained that I had booked through my tour operator and was not given this option, that is something I think you should make people aware of when booking as I would have booked that option.

The overall experience was perfect. Easy transfer, all the staff/guides were extremely friendly, helpful and patient. I have never rode a horse before but enjoyed my experience thoroughly.
