Our Story

Behind every good journey is a story.

 

Ours started in Iceland in 2002 with founder Ásberg Jónsson and co-founder Pálmi Jónsson. They turned their passion for exploration into Iceland’s first privately owned bicycle rental and tourist information centre in downtown Reykjavik.

Starting out with only a few staff in a tiny storefront, the start-up soon formed valuable business partnerships. This way, it provided guests more and varied ways to explore Iceland. It grew fast to include the neighbouring Nordic countries, then Scotland and the Alps.

We now have over 100 employees in our Iceland, Sweden, Scotland and German offices. And although we parked the bikes long ago, some things haven’t changed since our early days, including our commitment to high-quality, personal services.

Are you ready to create your own Nordic story? Start planning your next adventure.

Get to know us and our destinations better on our blog, Facebook, and other social media sites.
