Christa Larwood, producer and presenter for The Travel Show on the BBC News Channel, was on our private tour to Fagradalsfjall Volcano.
We organized a full-day expedition for the BBC with our guides, Hulda and Marco, to reveal the magic of this unique event, including the crater and lava field.
This show featured our signature Volcanic Reykjanes Peninsula Tour.
Our private tours to the Fagradalsfjall volcano & the smokey lava valley are suitable for everyone, including seniors and families with small kids.
This is a custom private hiking experience in Iceland, to the newest volcano eruption in Reykjanes Peninsula. You will have complete control of the pace, and nobody is rushing you during the tour.
You can select to be picked up at your accommodation, or self-drive to our meeting point. Both options are available to book.
Our guide will choose the type of hike based on the weather conditions and your fitness level.
We will visit the Fagradalsfjall Volcano and Geldingadalir, walk along the newly formed lava, and get closer to the volcanic crater, and the smokey valley (weather dependant).
This tour is an excellent option for photographers, drone operators who require more time on site.
The tour can be up to four hours and takes you closer to the crater through Langihryggur, Merardalir, or Geldingadalur.
On this tour, flexibility is the key, as we may adjust the schedule based on the weather conditions. Since this is a private tour, the hike can be custom and the starting time will be flexible if required.
Your guide will adjust and decide the best path based on your fitness level and stamina.
The hike to Fagradalsfjall volcano crater can take 30 to 60 minutes each way.

The walking distance to the volcanic crater at Fagradalsfjall volcano and the length of the tour may change due to the weather conditions per day.
