Have you ever wondered how it feels to be near a volcano, gazing down on the pouring hot lava? Well now is your chance! Volcanic eruptions are extremely rare and once in a lifetime events. This tour will take you on a guided hike to the Fagradalsfjall active volcano.

We will pick you up at your hotel in Reykjavik and drive you straight to the Reykjanes Peninsula. On our way, we can already see huge lava fields, created during the last eruptions that occurred more than 900 years ago. The start of the trail to the volcano is about a 40-minute drive from Reykjavik. Here your guide will walk with you through the rugged lava fields of the Reykjanes geopark for about 1 to 1,5h until you reach the mouth of the volcano.

The hike is around 3km one way and a moderate level of fitness is required as we have to walk up one steep hill before we reach the plateau. Once we get there, we can already spot the volcano in the distance. We will spend some time in the area to take stunning photos and videos.

I am someone who generally loves food tours and this one did no disappoint! Our guide was amazing made us feel very comfortable and relaxed. Fantastic food, you will be full for the rest of the day after the tour. My dad who hates the idea of food tours begrudgingly came with us on this tour. Afterwards he raved about it and said it was amazing! I have two kids approximately 10 years old, they both loved the tour!

Finally got my dad to enjoy a food tour 

We had a fabulous tour with Eygló. She was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and so fun! She told us 
so much about Iceland, it’s history and it’s food. The food was always waiting for us, we tasted
a wide variety of delicious cuisines and had a great afternoon. This is a must do if you’re visiting Iceland.

If you've made your way all the way to Iceland - then I believe it's a MUST for you to experience the magical Northern Lights.

NORTHERN LIGHTS TOUR

Where to begin! We booked a few different tours, that included a northern lights trip, the golden circle and south coast. All these trips were fantastic. Jon was brilliant and so knowledgeable on the Northern lights tour and our very own “Queen Bee” Berglind was just amazing. So knowledgeable, funny and kind! Highly recommend anyone to anyone visiting Iceland to book these tours - you won’t be disappointed!

Emzieoneil

Do it! Do it! DO IT! 

The tour was excellent. Seeing the northern lights has been on my bucket list for so many years - and WOW, what an adventure. Our tour guide Thor who was so knowledgable about Iceland knew exactly where the Northern Lights were going to be. This was such a fun experience that I’ve recommended to all my friends coming to Iceland!

Jess 

Finally saw the Northern Lights! 

I can't say enough great things about this tour! We had Thor as our guide. We started our tour at the Aurora museum where they showed me how to capture the northern lights on my camera. We then set out for adventure! Thor knew exactly where to take our group and even had warm Icelandic coco and pastries to enjoy while seeing the lights! I highly recommend anyone visiting Iceland during the winter to experience this!

Beautiful waterfalls, the famous Black Sand beach, the coastal town of Vík and be up close and personal with an Iceland glacier. Experience the best of Iceland’s untouched nature in this incredible tour. The South Coast is one of the most beautiful regions in Iceland and it is perfect to explore in a day tour from Reykjavik.

In this tour of the South Coast of Iceland you will drive all along the South/East coastline from Reykjavik until you reach the beautiful coastal town of Vík in Mýrdalur. On the way you will come across some of the all time most beautiful sights and natural wonders that Iceland has to offer, such as Seljalandsfoss waterfall which you can walk behind, the powerful Skogafoss waterfall, Svinafellsjokull glacier and the Black Sand Beach!

We believe this tour is the best possible quality, for the best price and is operated by a an outstanding tour operator in Iceland that has one of the best customer feedback in all the Icelandic travel industry. So if you want to explore the best of Icelandic nature, you should consider one.

Your adventure day of the South Coast in Iceland begins with a pick up at your accommodation or a nearby meeting location of your choice in Reykjavik. After being picked up we will drive south on highway #1 and be introduced to incredible Iceland’s incredible untouched nature, geology, history and folklore.

Many of our guests most favourite stops on the way are at the effable famous waterfalls of the South Coast. They are the majestic Seljalandsfoss waterfall and Skogafoss waterfall. And you might even have the chance to see the infamous Eyjafjallajokull volcano, that stopped air traffic all over Europe when it erupted back in 2010.

Our next stop will be the magical Reynisfjara beach or the Black Sand beach as it is commonly called in English. Not only is the beach wonderfully beautiful … and the sand is black! But there are also very unique basaltic lava rock pillars that create the cliffs around the beach and that’s where puffins nest in during summer.

Another must visit stop on the Iceland South Coast is the beautiful coastal town of Vík. A lunch-break stop will be made either at the Reynisfjara beach or in the small town of Vík (depending on weather, timing and amount of people in the area). However, it is also of course allowed to bring light snacks to have during the trip.

After the breath-taking beauty of the Black Sand beach the tour will take you towards Solheimajokull glacier. You will be able to walk right up to the glacier and to touch it. If lucky, we might even find an ice-cave!

This was a beautiful tour that allowed me to see the black sand beaches, multiple waterfalls, the town of Vik, and other beautiful landmarks of Iceland. the tour guide, Thor, was phenomenal and made the experience even better as he was knowledgeable and super fun!

Shannon N

Absolutely Stunning!

We took three tours while in Iceland, each with a different company. We enjoyed all three and would recommend all three, but this was our absolute highlight, because of the outstanding guide, Baldwin. He knew the best way to time our stops to avoid big crowds, and he was extraordinarily informative and interesting. The south coast is not to be missed.

Jwkalat

The highlight of our trip to Iceland!

A wonderful tour with Berglind. The tour is well planned and scheduled, this company really lives up its slogan ”we’re not in a hurry”. The guide told us so much about Iceland while driving. Because the weather was so good, Berglind made an extra stop on top of a cliff with a stunning view to the sea and the surroundings. So we got actually more than what we had paid for <3

I really recommend tours by this company especially for those who do not like big groups. It is worth every penny you pay more than for a tour with a big bus.

Wow, we would recommend this trip to anyone visiting Iceland! Our guide, Maria was 5* - her friendliness and knowledge were second to none. Our driver was great too! Each destination was breathtaking. We are so lucky to have experienced this trip on such a beautiful day; yet, as you will expect, still extremely cold - so layer up! Don’t miss out on seeing these beautiful examples of nature on an all round brilliant trip!

Breathtaking - you must take this trip!

What a wonderful tour. Our day began at the tectonic plates followed by the geysers. Then we had a quick cheeky meet and greet with some beautiful friendly Icelandic horses. After that we saw the beautiful waterfalls and then our day ended at the secret lagoon. The lagoon was incredible. So warm and relaxing.
Our guides were absolutely incredible. Friendly, so informative and really kind always taking photos for us and checking we were happy. This has been the best day in Iceland so far!

Rosetteangel 

Best day in Iceland so far!

Just had the chance to write review but couldn't miss the chance.

Booked this for the one full day we had in Iceland with my sister. Our guide picked us up from the pickup location on time. She is quite a warm and friendly guide and showed such knowledge and pride of her country. She also has a way of circumventing the tourist crowds. For instance, she arranged for us to grab lunch on a nice family run farm just for us so we had enough time to see the highlights!!

The tour itself took us through the beautiful sights of the golden circle and the secret lagoon, with useful tips on getting the best of the experience. Highly recommended...

We have an active Volcano in Iceland RIGHT NOW!

This is one of the most fascinating, unique and beautiful natural 

phenomenons that you'll ever come across. We don't know if the volcano will be active for a few more months or years but we do know that If you're visiting Iceland in 2021 then you need to see and experience this truly once in a lifetime event. 

Pack your warm clothes, get your camera ready and get excited for your incredible volcano adventure ahead!

Why I think you'll LOVE this volcano tour adveture!

Have you ever wondered how it feels to be near a volcano, gazing down on the pouring hot lava? Well now is your chance! Volcanic eruptions are extremely rare and once in a lifetime events. This tour will take you on a guided hike to the Fagradalsfjall active volcano.

We will pick you up at your hotel in Reykjavik and drive you straight to the Reykjanes Peninsula. On our way, we can already see huge lava fields, created during the last eruptions that occurred more than 900 years ago. The start of the trail to the volcano is about a 40-minute drive from Reykjavik. Here your guide will walk with you through the rugged lava fields of the Reykjanes geopark for about 1 to 1,5h until you reach the mouth of the volcano.

The hike is around 3km one way and a moderate level of fitness is required as we have to walk up one steep hill before we reach the plateau. Once we get there, we can already spot the volcano in the distance. We will spend some time in the area where you'll be able to take stunning photos and videos. 

Tour bus was comfortable, and Tom, our guide, was top-notch. Knowledgeable, engaging, and had great flexibility/awareness about what the group wanted to do. We even made a stop to look at another geothermal area on our way home. A wonderful experience through and through, would do again.

Patrick S

Would Do Again!

Wanting to be guided safely and professionally to see the volcano. Our guide picked up each party at their hotels, drove us to the staring point, accompanied us all - of differing abilities - and returned us safely back to his Mercedes touring van. He gave us his cellphone number and instructions when to call, such as being separated. My wife and I did not make it all the way to the top of the hike, but we were not expecting to, and were overjoyed to see the lava flow in the Natthagi valley. That portion of the trip was an easy and flat. An unexpected thrill was seeing the many varieties of alpine wildflowers along the trail, juxtaposed with lava flows.

Amazing tour and great service

Been on a brilliant trip today to Golden Circle and snowmobiling on the glacier. The geysir was great, the snowmobiling was incredible! Loved it, definitely recommend it. Gullfoss waterfall is an incredible view (very windy and bitterly cold so wrap up!). The national park was beautiful too. Raggi is a brilliant guide, so friendly, telling us all about the history of Iceland and the different areas and other fascinating facts. Thank you Raggi for a fabulous day!

KW Bgrove

Great trip, excellent tour guide Raggi

We were lucky enough to have Raggi as our guide who was a legend. This tour is just amazing. For starters you in a cool vehicle in a small group of 10 max. Raggi was full of information and keep us entertained all day. We stopped at the hot springs first followed by a trip on the snow buggies and the ice cave. I got a little scared on the buggies but was well looked after. My husband thoroughly enjoyed them. You go off in a group and stick together. After that we stopped for some food, lamb soup is a must! You get to see the beautiful waterfall, which is truly breathtaking.
In a nutshell it’s worth every penny. Thank you Raggi

1hr Snowmobile Adventure Tour on the Glacier

If you have only one day to experience the incredible natural beauty of Iceland, look no further – This Snaefellsnes Peninsula tour was created for you.

Snaefellsnes Peninsula and it’s National Park is the natural wonder of Western Iceland, only 2 hours away from Reykjavik and known for it’s dramatic landscapes. Locals even say that this is the only region in Iceland where you can find every single type of natural phenomenons that Iceland has to offer.

 

We at Wake Up Reykjavik hand-picked this particular Snaefellsnes Peninsula tour for you as we believe it is one of the best quality, best price, filled with value and is operated by a really great company that has one of the best customer feedback in the Icelandic travel industry.

 

Are you ready for a 10 hour power-day where you will see glaciers, volcanoes, lava fields, waterfalls, black and golden beaches, caves and more?

Our journey begins in Reykjavik where you will be picked up at your hotel for a day full of adventure through lava fields, mountains and ancient fishing villages.

 

The beauty & mystery of Snæfellsnes Peninsula lies in the natural history of the area and you might just be lucky enough to see seals, rare Atlantic birds and possibly whales from the shoreline as much of the day is spent on the coast. For the same reason, the tour can be slightly different every time as your guide of the day has flexibility to make short stops here and there when we come across wildlife or any other natural attractions beyond our control.

 

For the 2 hour drive from Reykjavik to Snæfellsnes we are rewarded with amazing views of the mountains, spectacular fjords and black sand beaches.

 

We spend the day exploring the surreal landscapes of lava fields, coastal cliffs and even small ice-cap with glaciers. Those are of course Arnarstapi coastal cliffs, Hellnar fishing village and more famous attractions. Among the stops is the “most photographed mountain” in Iceland – the effable Kirkjufell mountain. And throughout the whole tour we will be blessed of up-close views of Snaefellsjokull glacier.

 

The driving distance for the day is around 400 kilometers and total driving time is approx. 4,5 hours. But as all of this is divided into shorter adventures between the highlighted attraction it will be comfortable and easy.

WONDERS OF SNÆFELLSNES

If you have only one day to experience the incredible natural beauty of Iceland, look no further – This tour was created for you!

The Golden Circle route in Iceland is the absolute best ‘see it all, do it all’ highlight tour of Icelandic nature from Reykjavik. In only a few hours you will discover the most unique gems of Icelandic nature, from powerful waterfalls, erupting geothermal areas to beautiful national parks. 

For our guests staying in Reykjavik, the Golden Circle is a must do to experience the highlights of Iceland as it is also one of the few tours where you can explore our incredible nature only a few hours away from the city. You will drive along beautiful landscapes, glacier rivers and get a good feel of Icelandic nature. Furthermore, you will see the main highlights: Gullfoss waterfall, Thingvellir National park and the geothermal area, Geysir. We believe your Iceland trip won’t be completed without a visit to those beautiful sights.

We at Wake Up Reykjavik hand-picked this particular Golden Circle tour for you as we believe it is one of the best quality, for the best price, filled with value and is operated by a really great company that has one of the best customer feedback in the Icelandic travel industry.

The first stop is usually, Thingvellir national park. There you will encounter the birth place of the Icelandic nation and the site of the oldest still standing parliament in the world. It was the first viking parliament or Althingi and was founded on 930 a.d. In Thingvellir you can also walk on ‘no-mans land’ as it is also one of the spots where we can appreciate more clearly the forces shaping our planet as the tectonic plates spread apart and separate Europe from N-America.

Another of the visits during the Golden Circle is Gullfoss waterfall which is without a doubt, one of the prettiest waterfalls in Iceland, and that’s a lot for a country with as many waterfalls as Iceland.

Next, it is the indescribable geothermal area, Geysir which get’s its name from the boiling hot water that it gushes high up in the air. Today, the original Geysir hasn’t been active for years but his neighbor, Strokkur, blows hot steam high in the air every 5 to 10 minutes for our delight. Truly a remarkable sight!

You will also take a short stop at the town of Hveragerdi, where you’ll find a small exhibition about a 6,3-6,6 earthquake that took place in the town in 2008.

 
The waterfall at Faxi is also part of the tour. Smaller than Gullfoss, but very beautiful in the morning light. When conditions allow, the tour will also try to stop to admire some of the famously friendly Icelandic horses.

Geo Iceland that operates this tour encourage all their guests to make online booking at least 24 hours prior to the departure.

SMALL GROUP GOLDEN CIRCLE

Explore the highlights of Icelandic nature in the best ‘see it all, do it all’ tour from Reykjavik!

Experiencing the beautiful Thingvellir National park from under water is something you will never forget! Swim in the crystal clear Silfra fissure, between the tectonic plates of North America and Europe and enjoy indescribable views up to 100 meters ahead of you.

Thingvellir is a UNESCO world heritage site and snorkeling in the National Park has become one of the most popular things to do in Iceland, and we are not surprised! Silfra fissure is a small rift that opened between the tectonic plates of North America and Europe so you will be snorkeling between the two continents. Furthermore, the water in Silfra is incredibly clear and the visibility reaches up to 100 meters. All this makes Silfra one of the best dive sites in the world.

This tour includes the pick up service from Reykjavik, please be ready for pick up at your pick up location at your booked time. Note that the pick up can take up to 30 min.

Silfra Iceland offers a breathtaking snorkeling experience which is frequently rated as one of the world´s top ten dives. Snorkeling here in the canyon between the American and Eurasian tectonic plates, which have been moving apart at the rate of 2 cm per year, will take you into a magical sub-aquatic world. Colorful marine algae, including the bright green kind, often called ‘troll hair’ add jewel bright colors to this deep blue world. The water at Silfra flowed from Langjökull (Long Glacier), it has been purified on its journey through lava for around half a century, giving Silfra the unrivaled crystal clear visibility for which it is famous. This really is a remarkable dive, truly a once in a lifetime dive!

Our experienced and well qualified specialist diving guides will ensure you are provided with all of the equipment and information you need. The water temperature at Silfra is between 2 C and 4 C but but you will be nicely insulated in a drysuit. Whether you are an experienced snorkeler or a beginner this dive is an absolutely mesmerizing experience!
