About the activity

Get to know the region known as "Iceland in miniature" with an expert who will drive you around several wonderful sights on this unforgettable sightseeing tour around the Snaefellsnes Peninsula from Reykjavik! Located in western Iceland, around 150 kilometres from Reykjavik, the Snaefellsnes Peninsula is known for its incredible volcanic landscapes. With glaciers, mountains, lava fields, fishing villages, and more, visiting this wonderful region will allow you to explore some of the best sights in the country.

On the day of your Snaedellsnes Peninsula tour from Reykjavik, you'll have the option to be picked up at several different locations around Reykjavik (please specify when booking), around 30 minutes before the activity is set to start. You'll meet your expert Nordur Travel instructor, who will welcome you and give you a quick itinerary and safety briefing, so you know where you're going and what to do to have a great time. Once you're comfortably installed in the vehicle, it's time to go!

You'll start the experience with a 2-hour drive toward your first stop at the Berserkjahraun Lava Fields, where you'll get to explore the jagged rocks left by an old volcano. Next, you'll head to Mt. Kirkjufell & Kirkjufellsfoss Waterfalls, the most photographed mountain in Iceland and a completely unmissable sight. The activity will continue with stops at Snæfellsjökull National Park, where you'll get to observe the stunning Snæfellsjökull glacier, and Djúpalónssandur Beach, a unique black sand beach that will impress you with pieces of old shipwrecks scattered on the sand.

The second half of the experience will take you toward Lóndrangar Basalt Cliffs, with their stunning rock formations and opportunities for birdwatching. After that, you will go to the charming Arnarstapi Village, which used to be a fishing village and is full of history and beautiful views. The last 2 stops on this wonderful 11-hour sightseeing tour around the Snaefellsnes Peninsula will be at Búðir Black Church, a striking wooden construction that stands alone in a lava field, and Ytri Tunga Beach, the perfect place to observe real-life seals. You'll finally return to Reykjavik with incredible memories (and photos) of one of the most beautiful regions in Iceland.
