Meet the dynamic duo behind the adventures at the heart of Iceland's untamed beauty: Sæmi and Raggi! Picture this - Raggi, the jack-of-all-trades, juggles life as a guide specializing in hiking and biking escapades, a part-time fireman who extinguishes both flames and boredom, and hey, did we mention he's also studying law at Akureyri University? Talk about a multitasking maestro!
Then there's Sæmi, the ex-painter turned husky farm maestro extraordinaire! Once a guide in the stunning Mývatn region, Sæmi traded his paintbrushes for the paws of fluffy huskies, running a farm that's every dog lover's dream.
When they're not leading expeditions or wrangling adorable furballs, you can catch these two in their element—racing down trails, climbing peaks, and biking through Iceland's breathtaking landscapes faster than you can say "adventure awaits."
Oh, did we mention their shared history? These Reykjavík natives go way back, practically growing up together. Fate had its own plans when they fell for local beauties from the Mývatn area, swooning them away from the city life to the charm of the north.
Their passion for exploration doesn't stop at guiding; they've led tours to the fiery depths of the Askja volcano, and while Raggi occasionally still takes the plunge into volcanic adventures, their zest for life extends far beyond the trails.
Family men through and through, Raggi and Sæmi proudly wear their titles of fathers—Raggi with his adventurous brood of 5, and Sæmi with his lively pack of 4. With their love for the outdoors, contagious enthusiasm, and knack for making every escapade unforgettable, Sæmi and Raggi are the ultimate dream team, ready to make your Icelandic adventures legendary!
