Description

Experience Iceland’s winter magic with a unique combination tour from Reykjavik, where you’ll witness majestic whales by day and the enchanting northern lights by night. Begin your adventure at the Old Harbour, setting sail into Faxaflói bay for a three-hour whale watching cruise. Spot minke whales, dolphins, porpoises, and humpback whales against a stunning winter backdrop.

After your morning at sea, enjoy free time to explore Reykjavik’s charming Old Harbour and Grandi areas. Discover cozy restaurants, boutique shops, and local culture before your evening adventure begins. This break gives you the perfect opportunity to relax and soak in the city’s vibrant atmosphere.

As night falls, embark on a two-hour northern lights cruise departing from the same harbor. Glide into the southern part of Faxaflói bay, away from city lights, for the best chance to see the aurora borealis dancing across the sky. The starry expanse and magical lights create an unforgettable Icelandic experience.

Your tour includes access to a wildlife exhibition, live commentary in English, and the use of warm overalls and blankets to keep you comfortable on deck. If the northern lights or whales don’t make an appearance, you’ll receive a free retry, ensuring you make the most of your visit. Photos taken by the crew are also included when available.

This tour is suitable for all fitness levels and welcomes families, with safety measures in place for children. Don’t miss your chance to experience two of Iceland’s top winter attractions in one unforgettable day—check availability and book your spot now!
