Overview
Embark on an unforgettable journey across the Reykjanes Peninsula, Iceland’s youngest and most active volcanic region.
This half-day adventure brings you face-to-face with powerful geothermal activity, dramatic coastal scenery, and newly formed lava landscapes shaped by recent eruptions.
Just a short drive from Reykjavík, Reykjanes is a land of fire and ocean, where thundering Atlantic waves meet steaming earth.
Perfect for nature lovers, photographers, cruise guests, and curious explorers, this tour offers a deep dive into Iceland’s raw geological forces and centuries-old natural history.
Walk between two continents at the famous Bridge Between Continents, marvel at the ocean-carved Brimketill lava rock pool, and stand atop volcanic cliffs near Iceland’s oldest lighthouse.
Capture stunning views of the mysterious Kleifarvatn volcanic lake, explore the colorful bubbling mud pools and steaming vents of Seltún, and get up close to new lava fields at the Fagradalsfjall eruption site.
Feel the power of nature at Gunnuhver Hot Springs, home to Iceland’s largest mud pool, and enjoy the coastal charm of Grindavík fishing village.
An optional stop at the Blue Lagoon is available for photos or drop-off.
From smoking geothermal fields to rugged coastlines and fresh lava, every stop promises awe, discovery, and unforgettable moments.
