Westman Islands Sightseeing Boat Tour from Heimaey Harbor

Incredible tour! The guides were great, being both funny and engaging. Music was played in between areas when the boat stops for closer views which kept the vibes high. During our tour we got to see a huge amount of puffins which was absolutely amazing.

We could not come ashore because of high waves and wind from our ship the Viking Mars. The captain thought it too rough to chance it. We are hoping for a refund.

Fabulous 1 hour boat trip round the islands with brilliant guide Johanna. Great fun, beautiful seabirds, atmospheric sea caves and great stories

Was a really great experience. The guide was wonderful and told us all kinds of stories. Would 100% recommend.

We had a fantastic 1 hour wild boat tour adventure with RIP SAFARI. Since we went in early May, the puffins were not flying to their burrows during the day and were out floating somewhere out in the ocean. But our guide Christine provided very interesting info about the birds. Best time to see them in May is early morning or late late in the evening. I understand that later in June and July, the fly back and forth to their cliffside burrows to keep their eggs warm. But even though we didn’t see puffins on the boat tour, the tour took us to several sea caves which were interesting to see. The scenery was amazing. (We did see the puffins later that night thanks to Christine’s viewing tip.). I highly recommend this booking.

Wow! We had an amazing time that almost didn't happen. Our 6 year old dottir was having a meltdown before the ride as she didn't want to wear the sea suit that was required. We almost had to cancel but several cre members helped her get on a new suit and comforted her and we were able to get on the water. And the one hour R.I.B. tour was absolutely amazing! Guide Thor was very informative and the bost ride was such a tremendous experience! Awesome sights and sounds and would highly recommend!

This boat tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Iceland! We had Kristin as our guide and Eythor as our captain and they were amazing!! The views were stunning coupled with the music they played on the ride. Kristin was a wonderful storyteller and also gave us a lot of recommendations to checkout on the island for the rest of the day. I’d definitely recommend the earlier tour so you can also get some recs from the team. Make sure to bring gloves and hats. We also regretted not doing the 2-hour tour, so definitely book the longer one if your budget/time allow. It was so much fun, 12/10 I’d do it again and again!

Exceeded expectations! Staff is professional and fun. The rib was comfortable and we had a surprise visit by a pod of Orca whales! Highly recommend this trip.

Amazing Captain, perfect crew, great gear, unforgettable experience!

Eight year old son rated this his favorite activity in Iceland! Wonderful way to get up close to the beautiful cliffs of Heimaey and see the smaller islands; also to see puffins. Guide was wonderful.
