The Reykjanes peninsula is an underrated gem in Iceland, often bypassed by visitors but filled with remarkable geological and historical sites. Reykjanes provides an unforgettable blend of natural beauty and Icelandic culture, from active geothermal springs and volcanic craters to iconic lighthouses and scenic coasts.
From Reykjavik, the tour heads to Seltun and Gunnuhver. These areas provide an immersive experience of the active and colorful geothermal world of Reykjanes through their bubbling hot springs, mud pools, and steaming vents.
Next to explore are Kleifarvatn and Graenavatn, two serene lakes surrounded by volcanic landscapes. Reykjanesviti, the oldest lighthouse in Iceland, is also on the itinerary, offering panoramic views of the dramatic cliffs and birdlife in the area.
One of the unique stops on the tour is the Viking World Museum, home to a fascinating exhibition about Viking history and the exploration of the North Atlantic. Here, you can see the famous Icelander ship, a replica of the vessel used by Viking explorers to reach North America.
The museum also features interactive exhibits and artifacts about the gods and sagas, Norse mythology, Viking settlements, and rich maritime history.
Next, you’ll visit the famous Bridge Between Two Continents, where you can walk between the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates. If time and weather conditions allow, you’ll also have the chance to take a short hike to a nearby newly formed lava field created by a recent volcanic eruption.
For an optional stop, the tour ends at the Blue Lagoon, where you can experience the best Icelandic geothermal bath. The Blue Lagoon is most famous for its milky-blue waters surrounded by moss-covered lava fields.
You can add a Comfort or Premium entrance package to the geothermal spa during the booking process. The entrance tickets include a silica mud mask, a towel, complimentary drinks, and the use of the lagoon’s excellent facilities.
After a beautiful day in Reykjanes, the guide will drive you back to your hotel in Reykjavik. If you’re exploring in winter, your guide may elevate your trip with a hunt for northern lights should the forecast and weather be ideal.
