Iceland Super Jeep Tour

 

Introduction

 

With a population of 180,000, Reykjavik offers an interesting mix of cosmopolitan culture and local village roots. Beautifully positioned amidst fjords and mountain ranges it acquired its name, meaning 'Smoky Bay', after the first settler, Ingolfur Arnarson, a Norwegian Viking, saw steam rising from the geothermal springs there in 874.

 

In fact, Reykjavik is a smoke free city and is heated almost exclusively by geothermal water pumped from hot springs deep below the earth's surface. Icelanders are proud of having the cleanest, freshest air on the planet.
