Riding tours on Icelandic horses, picked for calm animals and patient guides. The breed has a fifth gait called the tolt, smooth enough that riders show it off holding a full pint. Any horse that leaves Iceland can never return, which has kept the bloodline pure for a thousand years.
Saddle up for an unparalleled Icelandic horse riding experience where tradition meets modern comfort - an adventure like no other awaits!
