Check-in
Meet us at our ticket office by the Old Harbour in Reykjavík where you will check in for the tours at least 15 min. before your whale watching tour is scheduled to depart. Do keep in mind that both tours are weather-dependent for your safety and enjoyment, so always check for updates and dress accordingly.
Classic Whale Watching (3 hours)
Start your adventure by joining the whale watching tour at the Old Harbour. Enjoy an approximately 3-hour tour in Faxaflói bay, where you can spot minke whales, dolphins, porpoises, and even humpback whales. The winter landscape, illuminated by the low sun, creates breathtaking views over the horizon. If no wildlife is spotted, you'll receive a free ticket to join another tour on a different day.
Free time in Reykjavík
After your whale watching tour, you will have a few hours to explore downtown Reykjavík at your leisure. Use this time to stroll through the city center, visit local shops, or enjoy a cozy meal at one of Reykjavík's many restaurants. This break provides the perfect opportunity to relax and prepare for the evening adventure.
Northern Lights Cruise (2 hours)
Return to the Old Harbour for an evening cruise into the Southern part of Faxaflói bay. Sail away from the city lights under a vast, starry sky to increase your chances of seeing the Northern Lights. The tour is operated on most nights, where there is a chance we will see the auroras, as we know Iceland’s weather is unpredictable, and the skies can clear up within minutes. If the Northern Lights don’t appear, you’ll receive a free ticket to try again on another night.
Disembarking
Once the evening cruise is back in port, you are welcome to make your own way back to your hotel. If you have booked drop off, please get on one of our white buses that will be waiting for you outside the boat. Need a ride back to your hotel? Feel free to book a transfer by contacting a member of the crew.
