Description
Discover the lunar landscapes of the Reykjanes peninsula on a thrilling private six-hour sightseeing tour from Reykjavik, with a visit to the Blue Lagoon. Those seeking luxury super jeep travel, incredible nature, and a geothermal bathing experience should not hesitate to book this customizable experience.
You’ll start this tour when your private guide picks you up in a comfortable, modern super jeep. They’ll escort you out of the capital to your first destination, the nearby town of Hafnarfjordur.
Hafnarfjordur has two nicknames, the ‘town on the lava’ and ‘the town of elves.’ You can marvel over the sprawling alien lava fields as your guide tells you about the fascinating folklore in the area. You’ll also see how Icelanders dry fish, a cultural way of creating the country’s favorite snack.
Your super jeep will then take you deeper into the lava fields of the Reykjanes peninsula, exposing you to beautiful coastlines and countless volcanoes. You’ll stop at Lake Kleifarvatn, the largest lake in the region, and explore its geothermal areas.
To see even more hot springs, you’ll head to Krysuvik, where a pathway leads through many bubbling pools and steaming vents amongst brightly colored landscapes dyed by volcanic elements.
You will then head up to the Bridge Between the Continents, where you can see and cross the divide between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. This continental divide runs through Iceland and causes its volcanic activity, and the Reykjanes peninsula is one of the best places to see it.
Along the coastline, you’ll see incredible cliffs that are filled with birdlife throughout the summer. You’ll also witness the monumental lighthouse of Reykjanesviti with views over the distant, uninhabited island of Eldey.
After this, you’ll head to the Blue Lagoon. Note that you will need a Blue Lagoon ticket in advance as they cannot be booked on the same day.
The Blue Lagoon is one of the world’s most famous geothermal spas, renowned for its opaque blue water, healing properties, and many amenities, including a sound cave, silica masks, and a waterfall.
Plenty of treatments are available here for those looking to indulge in luxury.
As this is a private tour, you are welcome to tell your guide your interests so they can tailor a tour appropriately. Those who want to enjoy geothermal bathing can spend longer at the Blue Lagoon, while those who’d rather spend time at the natural attractions are welcome to do so.
After a fantastic time recharging in the Blue Lagoon, your guide will return you to Reykjavik.
