An exhilarating combination of two of Iceland's most popular activities awaits: whale watching from Reykjavík's Old Harbour and a glacier snowmobile adventure on Langjökull.
The whale-watching cruise departs from the historic harbour area where a converted fishing vessel functions as a Visitor Centre beside the pier. On board, you will find outdoor viewing platforms and a heated indoor saloon with panoramic windows, offering comfortable options for everyone to take in the views.
Knowledgeable guides provide commentary throughout the trip, offering insight into the marine life and landscape of Faxaflói bay. Expect to see minke whales, humpbacks, dolphins and porpoises when conditions are favourable, and consult whale sighting updates online before you travel.
The snowmobile element delivers high-adrenaline scenery across vast glacial expanses, guided by experienced local instructors who lead riders through dramatic ice-sculpted terrain.
Transfers carry guests from the meeting area up towards the glacier base, where a short journey delivers you to the highland environment. The pairing of marine wildlife and icy interior landscapes creates a contrast of experiences - calm, contemplative wildlife viewing followed by the roar of snowmobiles across an ancient glacier.
This combo is ideal for travellers seeking variety, memorable photo opportunities and a mix of education and adventure in one package.
