Description

See Iceland's geothermal areas from the sky on this helicopter tour from Reykjavik. The tour suits anyone who is curious about Iceland's volcanic forces and loves adventure.

You meet your pilot and guide at Reykjavik Domestic Airport, where they outline the itinerary before you board the helicopter and prepare for takeoff.

After takeoff, you fly over the Hellisheidi Plateau, one of the most active volcanic areas in Iceland, with moss-covered lava fields, colorful mountains, steaming hot springs, and the geothermal power plants that supply Reykjavik with renewable energy.

You land in the Hengill geothermal area, named after the Hengill Volcano, away from the crowds. You step out of the helicopter for about 15 minutes to see the hot springs and boiling mud pots up close and take photos.

You then board the helicopter again, and on the way back your pilot makes a scenic pass over Reykjavik.

After the city views, you land back at Reykjavik Domestic Airport.
