Experience the DC-3 plane wreck and stunning black beaches on this express Buggy tour
Tour Operator: ICELANDIA
Gear up for an exhilarating 1-hour off‑road journey across Iceland’s dramatic black‑sand plains, arriving at the iconic DC‑3 plane wreck on Sólheimasandur—a photographer’s dream. This family‑friendly buggy tour begins at the base near Mýrdalsjökull glacier, where you'll receive a thorough safety briefing and learn to handle your all‑terrain buggy.
Roll across rugged volcanic terrain and splash through icy streams, with sweeping views of Mýrdalsjökull glacier on one side and the roaring Atlantic waves on the other. Along the way, your guide will highlight the stark contrast between the black sands, glacier ice, and ocean vistas.
At the legendary plane wreck—enigmatic and haunting against the volcanic backdrop—you’ll have time to explore and snap memorable photos. Then, rev your buggy for a scenic return along the coastline, crossing more shallow rivers before heading back to base, heart pounding with adrenaline and memories carrying the essence of Iceland’s untamed beauty.
We recommend you bring warm first and/or mid layer, e.g. a warm sweater and water resistant boots.
