Private Tour
Overview
Your local guide will be ready to welcome you and take you on this Arctic experience.
Travel in your private transportation along the beautiful Eyjafjörður coastline to Siglufjörður Fjord. Take in coastal life and the beautiful seaside surroundings on the way. You will enjoy a walk on a black sand beach in Ólafsfjörður Village. From there you continue on to Siglufjörður Village, the shooting location for the popular Icelandic TV series “Trapped”, setting the right atmosphere for the thrilling series. In Siglufjörður we visit The Herring Era Museum and there we get to know the history of the town. Among other stops is the busy harbor area of Dalvík Village, one of the biggest ports in the Icelandic fishing industry, and the old herring factory in Hjalteyri Village.
Your guide will narrate and point out many highlights of the coastline route, the overing mountains and the culture and tranquility of rural Iceland. You will really be immersed in the beauty and the closeness to the Arctic circle. During your tour you will enjoy a break for refreshments at a local restaurant or café.
Your whale-watching experience departs from a small harbor in Hauganes. The boats used for whale-watching are old oak fishing boats which are both beautiful, spacious, and comfortable. This will be a truly authenic experience with a high chance of seeing whales. During the summer of 2021, the success rate was 99% for all the tours! Depending on the schedule of the whale-watching tours, your tour will either start or end with whale-watching experience.
With new memories of the Arctic you will be returned to your cruise port at the end of your tour.
