Mammut Travel – Adventure and Hotel Tours to Iceland and Greenland

Contact About us

Travel with the Mammut to the lands of ice and fire!

We'll take you on a tour around the whole of Iceland or just show you a tiny little part of it in all its depth. We get you soaked in steaming hot pots, go on Aurora hunt with you, tell you tales of heroes and ghosts. We lead you on mountain tops and into the heart of the Earth. We get you to meet local people and taste local food. And we do all that with a lot of enthusiasm and love for the countries we work with.

Iceland, Greenland and the Mammut are waiting for you!

The scientific world has considered the Mammut extinct for ages. But also scientists can err. One little red Mammut survived, dormant, through the ages and rose to life again 2011 in Iceland. It had the luck to be born sure footed, in his back the combined expertise of a group of people with long years of experience in tourism in Iceland, Greenland and other parts of Scandinavia.

We who are working for Mammut Travel have different backgrounds and come from different countries but have all at some point fallen in love with the rough beauty of the North, a love that not only holds ourselves captive but makes us want to show this beauty to the world – to you!

By foot, by car, slowly, adventurous, in a basic way or with a little comfort, in just a few days or for several weeks - there are many ways of exploring a country. We ourselves have experienced Iceland and Greenland in many ways.

For sure it is difficult to meet the needs of everybody, maybe even impossible. But we are willing to try.
