Private Reykjanes Peninsula Day Tour

Reykjanes Peninsula Unesco Geopark is the first nature you will see in Iceland after landing. It is often described as another planet or a lunar landscape with its unique lava fields shaping the landscape as we imagine the moon or Mars. Most of the peninsula is covered with semi-fluid rock and impressive volcano ridges.

 

In July 2023, the Reykjanes Peninsula was blessed with a new volcanic eruption in Litli-Hrútur, far from Fagradalsfjall and Meradalir volcanoes. This eruption became one of Iceland's biggest tourist attractions. The peninsula is very active, with eruptions happening every year.

 

Geothermal areas are everywhere, and we will visit the most powerful hot spring in Iceland called "Gunnuhver," named after a female ghost that would terrorize the inhabitants of this area.

 

Other tour highlights include the Seltún geothermal site with very active mud pots and fumaroles, the largest lake on the peninsula Kleifarvatn, the symbolic footbridge between continents, and the oldest lighthouse currently operated in Iceland since 1908, and out of this world, the craters of Stampar.

​

If included, we make another stop at the world-famous Blue Lagoon, where you can dip and relax in the silica water after this fantastic day.
