In our area, Skagafjordur, there are thousands of horses, and a few dozen very good breeding farms and training farms. You can join me (Lukka) in my car and I take you to a group of farms, looking at maybe 20-30 handpicked horses (depending on what kind of horse(s) you are looking for) during 2-3 days, and it’s free for the horse buyer.  We have run this service since 1997, and built up a reputation and history for horse-knowledge, honesty, credibility and experience.  Our history of happy customers says it all.  And, people ask me all the time, isn’t export complicated?  But, export is easy, I help with the whole process.   It is easy to come to us, you can come with a bus, or take a domestic airplane to Akureyri (town close to us), where we can fetch you.

The group of sale prospects in our area is so big and changes fast, so we don’t have them on a saleslist on our page, it wouldn’t give the right idea about the real selection.  So, we might know about your dream horse, several that are prospects, or, given a bit of time, we will usually find it : )

More detailed:  How can we help you with your dream horse, how can we be of service?

The customers that come to us have one common thing, they all like Icelandic horses.  But, in other respects, their taste, experience, time etc. is very different.  We have been building up our service for years now, and are in contact with a big number of people all over Skagafjörður, Iceland, and the world.  And, we pride ourselves in letting your dream come true.  Here are some of the things we do regularily for our customers, or can do:

Accommodation.

There are good accommodation options in our area, see our Accommodation link.   It is great, if you’re on a trip to find your dream horse, to find accommodation very centrally in our area, Skagafjörður, f.ex. at the town Sauðárkrókur.  It fits perfectly if you come to us to stay for maybe 2-3 days to find your dream horse, because then we can go to dozens of farms in the neighborhood.

Boarding.

When a horse has been bought, there can be various reasons for the buyer wanting the horse to stay in Iceland for a longer time.  We are in cooperation with good farms that can take excellent care of your horse, raise your youngster, board your stallion, etc.

Breeding.

When a mare has been bought, there is often interest in breeding her and exporting her in foal with one of the great stallions that are in Iceland.  It can be a once-in-a-lifetime chance to bring their genes into your stock, and the prices for stud fees are probably a lot lower than in your country.  We can take care of having the mare bred, having a veterinarian ultrasound the mare etc.

Breeding evaluations.

When a mare has been bought, there can be various reasons for wishing to have her evaluated before she departs.  We can help you arrange for the mare being trained and shown by excellent trainers.

Clinics.

Lukka has travelled a lot to give clinics.  You can take riding lessons or a riding clinic at Langhus farm.  You can come to Iceland, and take riding lessons, join a clinic, or have a clinic custom made for you or your croup, by a Lukka or another great riding teacher.

Dream horses.

We are visited a lot by people that come to join us for a few days, and find their dream horse.  That can be approached in a few different ways, but usually we go between a small or big number of farms to try out different horses and find out which one is the best partner for you.  We are constantly looking for and trying out different horses in the area, and can quickly select good prospects from a group of hundreds of horses that are for sale at any given time.  The group to select from is so big and changes fast, so we don’t have many on the saleslist on our page, it wouldn’t give the right idea about the real selection.  So, we might know about your dream horse, several that are prospects, or, given a bit of time, if possible, we will find it : )

Export.

We are in cooperation with excellent exporters that specialize in taking care of transporting and exporting horses.  We and the exporter take care of the whole process of the export.  F.ex.  veterinary checking the horse, transporting the horse to the Reykjavik/Keflavik international airport, paperwork, flight, quarantine (applies to USA, there is no quarantine to Europe), etc.  The buyer just has to take care of paying for the horse, paying for the export, and having the horse fetched at the destination airport.  The exporter can usually help out finding, or arranging for, a domestic transport from the airport to you, if necessary. For updated information on prices, the export process, destination etc., feel free to send us an e-mail.  Importing a horse from Iceland is incredibly easy.

Holidays.

You can take a holiday combined with finding your dream horse, and travel around in our area or in bigger parts of Iceland.  We can help you plan and get ideas, depending on your wishes.

Training.

For various reason, you might want your horse trained more.  We train, of course, but are also in contact with many excellent trainers, both great show trainers, and patient trainers that take care to prepare an excellent family horse, others that are interested in dressage, teaching a youngster basic handling etc. so that your horse is prepared in the best way to be your dream horse.

Tours and rides on horseback.

We do horse tours, and you can join us on a shorter or longer horse tour, from 2 hours to several days, for example if you want to combine such a fun experience with finding your dream horse.

Transport.

There can be several reasons for you wanting your horse transported to another part of the country (breeding to a certain stallion being a common reason), and we can do that or arrange for that being done.

In short…How can we be of service?

In short:  We run a service, people come and visit us, looking for their dream horse, and we help with everything.
