After the tour, we invite you to relax and enjoy complimentary coffee, tea, and hot chocolate at our stables. Our friendly staff will be happy to answer any questions you may have about the Icelandic horse, its history, and its unique characteristics.

 

At Íshestar, we take pride in providing a personalised service that caters to the needs of each of our guests.

Items which can not be washed or dry cleaned (riding boots, riding hats) need to be cleaned and disinfected at least five days prior to arriving in Iceland.
