Operated by IceTrek ehf
About this experience
Join us on an unforgettable journey to the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, often referred to as "Iceland in Miniature" due to its diverse landscapes. From majestic glaciers and volcanic craters to charming fishing villages and black sand beaches, this tour offers a comprehensive taste of Iceland's natural beauty.
Your Adventure Begins
We commence our day with pickup from designated locations and hotels in Reykjavík City at 08:00 AM. Heading westward, we embark on a scenic drive towards the enchanting Snæfellsnes Peninsula.
Highlights of the Tour
- Borgarnes: Our first stop is the quaint town of Borgarnes, where we'll take a short break to stretch our legs and enjoy the coastal views.
- Kirkjufell Mountain: Known as the most photographed mountain in Iceland, Kirkjufell's distinctive shape and surrounding waterfalls make it a must-see landmark. We'll pause here for a memorable photo opportunity.
- Djúpalónssandur Black Sand Beach: Experience the unique black pebble beach of Djúpalónssandur, where you'll find remnants of a shipwreck and the famous "lifting stones" once used by fishermen to test their strength.
- Arnarstapi Fishing Village: Explore the charming village of Arnarstapi, renowned for its stunning coastal cliffs and abundant birdlife. Here, you'll have the option to enjoy lunch at one of the local restaurants.
- Búðir: Visit the iconic black church of Búðir, set against a dramatic landscape of lava fields and golden sands, offering a serene and picturesque setting.
- Ytri Tunga Beach: Our final stop is Ytri Tunga Beach, famed for its resident seal colony. It's one of the most reliable places in Iceland to observe seals in their natural habitat.
