Why I think you'll love this puffin adventure! 🧡
I believe this tour is a MUST DO if you're in Iceland during the summer for a few reasons. To begin with, no other tour will get you closer to the islands, the beautiful puffins & the north sea! The boat ride on the rib safari boat is also incredibly FUN & exciting!
Lastly, the tour starts & ends by the old harbor. Just a few minutes walking from most hotels in Reykjavik (no need for long and boring drives to get to the meeting location.)
To sum it up, If you want a truly unforgettable adventure and to get up close & personal with the cutest birds on planet earth - then this tour was made for you!
There is a short taxi out to sea to an island with hundreds of puffins! We saw them flying, hanging out on the island, and swimming around. We event saw some with fish they were carrying back to the island. The guide was great and the ship captain sang an old Icelandic song while heading back. It was a great experience and definitely worth doing!
I almost didn't do this, but then I read a few of the good reviews and booked it. I'm so glad that I did! We saw tons of puffins! It's a nice boat ride, doesn't take too long, and there is a great coffee shop on the dock that you can get a nice strong Irish coffee afterwards
Saw hundreds and hundreds of puffins at sea, overhead and all over Island with our outstanding guide, Iris. Our trip was on a drizzly morning with calm seas, and it turns out that those were ideal conditions, as Iris quickly and accurately explained. Highly recommend this over whale watching - so much more to see and such a unique experience that is available in few locations worldwide.
