Description

Discover the otherworldly landscapes of the Reykjanes Peninsula on this private 4-hour tour from Reykjavik. Travelers seeking a personalized experience exploring the best natural wonders and cultural gems of Southwest Iceland should book this excursion now.

Your tour begins with a private pick-up from your Reykjavik accommodation or Keflavik International Airport. Because it’s just you and your group, you won’t need to wait for other travelers and can head towards the Reykjanes Peninsula as soon as you’re ready.

This tour is for up to five passengers. An experienced guide will drive you in a brand new Mercedes Benz V-class luxury minivan, promising comfortable travel with a touch of luxury.

Your first stop is Kleifarvatn, the largest lake on the Reykjanes Peninsula. It boasts a picturesque setting loved by hiking and photography enthusiasts. Breathe in the fresh air and marvel at the beautiful volcanic landscape contrasting against the blue water.

Next, your driver will take you to the Krysuvik geothermal springs. Here, you can check out the bubbling hot springs from the safety of the boardwalk. Pause to read the information signs as you meander through this fascinating landscape with colorful hills and steam rising from the earth.

After Krysuvik, you’ll visit Grindavik fishing village. This charming settlement is known for its rich maritime history and vibrant community. Surrounded by stunning lava fields and rugged coastlines, Grindavik offers a glimpse into the traditional Icelandic way of life, with its bustling harbor and seafood cuisine central to its cultural identity.

The tour’s next stop is the Brimketill lava rock pool. Perched on the edge of the Atlantic, this dramatic natural formation provides a unique spot to witness the raw power of the ocean. Folklore adds mystique to the site, as it’s said to have been the bathing pool of a mythical giantess.

Then, your driver will take you to the Gunnuhver hot springs. The hot springs are named after a ghost from Icelandic folklore and provide a captivating display of geothermal activity featuring steam vents and boiling mud pools.

Afterward, you’ll see Reykjanesviti, Iceland’s oldest lighthouse. It was built in 1878 and entirely rebuilt in 1929 after an earthquake destroyed it. Standing guard on the rugged coastline, Reykjanesviti not only guides ships safely to shore but also offers panoramic views of the wild Atlantic.

The tour’s final stops include the Bridge Between Continents, the beautiful Sandvik black sand beach, and the Blue Lagoon geothermal spa. Although you won’t have time to bathe in the lagoon on this tour, you’ll enjoy an unforgettable viewing of this world-class spa.

After a fantastic, jam-packed excursion, visiting the top destinations on the Reykjanes Peninsula, your driver will drop you back at your Reykjavik accommodation.
