Whale watching is one of the most popular spring and summer activities in Iceland. The clean Icelandic waters provide the perfect place to see the creatures in their natural surroundings.
This package includes flights, accommodation and a half day whale watching tour with local Reykjavik specialists Elding scheduled for the day after your arrival (day 2). You will be picked up from your hotel and then set sail from the old harbour in Reykjavik to Faxafloi Bay, a beautiful body of water with great views of Mount Esja on a clear day. Whale sightings are nearly guaranteed with Minke and Humpback whales the two most typical whales spotted. Each tour is different and that is part of the adventure.
Although the whales are the number one stars on the trip, Puffins and Guillemots are often spotted, offering great photo opportunities.
The Whale Watching City Break allows for plenty of free time to plan other activities. We recommend the Golden Circle tour which visits several of Iceland's natural highlights like the geothermal Geysir area and thundering Gullfoss waterfall. For the adventurous, horse riding and glacier walking are popular activities set in stunning scenery.
To book, choose "Whale Watching City Break" from the drop down menu.
From prices may be based on lowest season and are subject to availability of airfares. Hotel Cabin is available until 9th of May.
