We went on the black sand beaches and trails near the water in dune buggy’s in a group of 4. Our guide was absolutely amazing. He provided hot cocoa/coffee/tea, donuts and even let us shoot some bow and arrows halfway. He was extremely kind and very information. This so far was our favorite tour of the 5 others we have taken in Iceland!
