Farm visit with an authentic Icelandic farm, and the Icelandic horses:

 Description:

TOUR OPERATORS that want to give their groups a unique experience, we have the Farm visits.

  • Travel agencies love the farm visits for their bigger groups.

We have 2 programs, with or without a lunch:

Program A: Farm visit with a horse show about the breed.  Also a fun demo about horses are trained, from first knowing nothing, until they are fully trained riding horses.

Program B: Farm visit with a 2 course lunch (All-you-can-eat waffle lunch, skyr (an Icelandic dairy speciality, very tasty), and the Icelandic “Skúffukaka” chocolate cake as dessert.  Our lounge can take 16 people in seats, so if groups are bigger then people can take turns, one group at a time having dinner and another group having fun with the horses.  We also have outdoors seats and tables and then more people can enjoy the lunch simultaneously.  A demo /horse show can be included if you have time in the itinerary.  If there are special dietary requirements (f.ex. gluten intolerance) please inform us and we’ll see what we can do, we are very experienced in providing tasty alternatives.

All the farm visits (both option A and B) include / are:

  • Getting to know the amazing Icelandic horses close up.
  • Meet the locals in Iceland, family members at Langhus farm, and their staff (that also live in our home on the farm).
  • Visit an authentic Icelandic farm.
  • Langhus farm is a fully working horse farm, that has been in the family for 5 generations.  The name of the farm is at least 800 years old, and the family traces their ancestry back to the first settlers coming to Iceland in year 874.  We have deep roots.
  • The farm visit is a fun personal experience for everyone. It is great for all ages and abilities.  Both sporty people, disabled people, and every ability in between.
  • This is fun all year round.
  • The full visit is 1-1 1/2 hour, or whatever time length that fits for your group.  We are flexible.
  • Designed for groups of 20-40 people.
  • It’s a great time for photographing horses, and taking selfies with horses and the gorgeous panorama picture rural nature background here.
  • Those that want to can experience riding in our riding hall (no outdoors riding included).
  • Our purebred friendly Icelandic sheepdogs Pila and Dama also love dog-loving guests.  This small, friendly and gentle breed is Iceland’s native dog breed, their ancestors being imported by our viking ancestors a milennium ago.
  • Our stables and lounge is easily accessible so this also fits well for f.ex. elderly people and is also wheel chair accessible.
  • This is a popular option if you have a mixed group where some want to have a fun experience without riding. but some people also want to experience riding (in a riding hall) the special Icelandic horse.
  • This is a super chance to learn, to ask the questions you have about Iceland, and we strive to make this a personal experience for our guests.  We love to share, whether it’s Iceland, the farm animals, farming in Iceland, history, culture, whatever comes to mind.
  • If the guests have language difficulties, the animals charm and love the visitors anyway.
  • The farm visits are always a private tour for your group.
  • Complementary tea and coffee for everyone.
