All about the trip

There is something so otherworldly about Snæfellsnes that Icelanders often associate it with spiritual experiences and folk tales. This tour provides insight and spectacular views of this unique area where geological wonders are simply magical.

The Snæfellsnes peninsula in the West of Iceland is almost like a miniature version of the entire island. The area has beautiful samples of some of the natural wonders Iceland is so famous for. This includes black beaches, magnificent mountains, volcanic craters, incredible birdlife, magical caves, and of course, the most picturesque glacier of them all, Snæfellsjökull.

This tour stops at the small fishing village of Arnarstapi, provides real insight into quintessential volcanic craters and offers great views of the iconic Kirkjufell mountain. The dark cliffs and black sand of Djúpalónssandur bay are a favourite among photographers, and strongmen can test their strength on the historical lifting stones on the beach.

In the middle of this beautiful peninsula sits Snæfellsjökull, the stunning glacier that has captured the imagination of people all over the world, including Jules Verne who began his "Journey to the Centre of the Earth" at Snæfellsjökull glacier. The tour offers numerous views of this beautiful landmark. It is after all the real star of the show.
