Silfra tørdragt snorkeltur med gratis billeder - fra Reykjavik
Beskrivelse
Snorkling i en spaltning forårsaget af to tektoniske plader, der drifter fra hinanden, er noget, du ikke kan gøre hver dag! Silfra er navnet på en stor "crack", der strækker sig parallelt med den nordamerikanske og en mikroplade kaldet Hreppar, der brød fra den eurasiske plade. Silfra har verdensberømt klart og drikkevand med over 100 meters synlighed dagligt. Dette er i modsætning til enhver tur du kan gøre i Island og er noget du ikke kan gøre andre steder i verden. Vi er det eneste firma, der tilbyder vetsuit og drydress. Det betyder, at medlemmer af din gruppe kan booke forskellige muligheder og stadig være sammen i vandet. Vi inkluderer billeder og tager normalt omkring 40 - 100 billeder som standard afhængigt af turens størrelse, og du vil være i stand til at downloade dem efter mindst et par dage. Vi har altid små grupper, 6 personer pr. guide. Dette giver en bedre og mere personlig fornemmelse. Hvis I har en gruppe på 7 eller flere, kan I være sammen og forberede jeres udstyr, men i vandet vil nogle af jer være adskilt.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Placeringen af Silfra, hvor snorkling finder sted, er inden for Thingvellir Nationalpark. Passagerer, mens de kører igennem, får chancen for at se nogle af den smukke natur, nationalparken har at tilbyde.
Afrejse fra din Reykjavík indkvartering til Silfra tager omkring 45 minutter. Efter at have hilst din certificerede guide ved ankomsten, vil du gear op, lytte til en sikkerhedsoversigt, og hovedet ind i den isfyldte spaltning kendt som Silfra. Du vil tilbringe omkring 30-40 minutter i vandet, før du går ud og gå tilbage omkring 5 minutters gang. Du får derefter en chance for at varme op med en velfortjent varm chokolade. Vi tager billeder under snorkling. Typisk 40-100 billeder, afhængigt af gruppens størrelse og færdighedsniveau. Billederne vil være tilgængelige til download et par dage senere gratis. For tørring valgmulighed, venligst medbringe din egen en termisk base-lag. Vi anbefaler at medbringe tykke (fortrinsvis uld) sokker for at hjælpe med at holde dine fødder varme, mens snorkling. Vi er det eneste firma, der tilbyder både våddragt og tørrtrøje muligheder. Det betyder, at medlemmer af din gruppe kan booke i vatsuits eller drysuits, og du vil stadig være i den samme gruppe i vandet.
Silfra fissure betragtes ofte som en af de bedste dykning eller snorkling steder over hele verden. Dette skyldes den unikke synlighed i vandet på grund af det uberørte gletsjervand, der har filtreret gennem lavafelter i mange årtier. Gennemsnitlig synlighed i vandet er + 100m / + 300ft. Mange siger, at snorkling i Silfra føles som at flyve på grund af det klare isvand. Er du tørstig undervejs? Ingen bekymringer, bare tage en spand som vandet i Silfra kan endda være mere ren og bedre end den øverste hylde flaskevand, du ville købe tilbage hjem. Thingvellir National Park, hvor Silfra er beliggende, er hvor to tektoniske plader mødes med omkring 6 - 7 km / 4 miles gab mellem de to. Snorkling i Silfra betyder derfor, at du snorker mellem to tektoniske plader.

Thanks to our guide, Inès, the expérience was amazing, her energy and passion was awesome. Thanks again for the tour
Ines was amazing. The water was beautiful and the guides gave great explanations and stayed with you. I felt safe and well guided. The cold was not bad in the dry suit at all. Less than expected. My only issue was how tight the suit was around my neck and wrists. I had to keep my head up while walking to breathe and swallow and my fingers were tingling because the circulation was cut off before we got in the water. I was able to ignore he discomfort in the water. If you are claustrophobic or cannot tolerate things around your neck this may not be for you. Having said that the guides made me feel like I could do it and they were right! I give a 5 to the guides and the water experience but the 4 star rating is for the neck and wrist pinching. Nonetheless I’d recommend it!
An amazing activity. Our guide Kyra was really nice, informative, and accommodating (and made great hot chocolate afterwards). The water is incredibly clear so the beauty of the national park is on full display. Would definitely recommend.
Kaya was our guide, she was great. My son had a great time snorkeling. I would recommend to everyone.
The snorkeling experience was fantastic! The guides got us kitted out and took tons of pictures. The problem was getting back to Reykjavik. Instead o our original guide taking us back we were told to wait in the parking lot and another driver would arrive in about 1/2 an hour. He arrived more than an hour later and it required us walking back to the snorkeling site (about 5 min each way) to get our original driver to call him. Meanwhile we are freezing in the pouring rain the entire time. It could have been organized so much better.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed the snorkeling experience and that our guiding helped make your time in the water memorable. We would, however, like to clarify what happened with the return transfer. After your snorkeling tour, your guide explained that another driver would be taking you back to Reykjavík, as he was staying behind to guide the next group entering the water. At that time, you were given two options while waiting: you were welcome to stay in our heated changing room van or take a walk and explore the area for about half an hour. As your group was one of the first to get in the water that morning, you finished snorkeling earlier than expected. The return driver was on his way from Reykjavík after picking up guests for the noon snorkeling tour. Unfortunately, that pickup was delayed because some participants were not ready at the scheduled pickup time, which caused a knock-on delay to your transfer. When your group returned to the meeting point to ask about the transfer, your guide apologized and again invited you to wait inside the heated changing room van. At that point, he also called the driver, who informed him that he was approximately 15 minutes away. As soon as the driver arrived, your guide called you to let you know the make and color of the vehicle so you could easily identify it. We sincerely apologize for the delay and understand that waiting outside in the rain was frustrating. We always strive to provide a smooth experience, and we’re sorry that our transportation coordination fell short on this occasion. Your feedback is appreciated and will help us improve our communication and logistics. Thank you again for your review. We’re glad to hear that, despite the transportation issues, you had a fantastic snorkeling experience. Kind regards, The Adventure Vikings team
This is so worth it! If you are wavering just go for it! The views are so stunning!
100000% recommend this tour! 🤿💙 Snorkeling between two tectonic plates in Silfra was one of the highlights of our Iceland honeymoon! I was equal parts excited and terrified, but once we got in the water, it was incredible. The hardest part was squeezing into the dry suit. 😂 Our guide, Dory, was amazing—sassy, fun, knowledgeable, and made us feel safe the entire time. We wrapped up the adventure by me getting yelled at by some birds 🤣 and warming up with hot chocolate. If you get Dory as your guide, you’re in for an unforgettable experience! 🇮🇸
Rare experience with an amazing guide, the water was crystal clear almost feels like you are flying. Highly recommend
It was amazing, would do it again. Our instructor Kaya is great. Everything went smoothly and it was so beautiful!
We enjoyed this experience so much! Kaya was a perfect guide - always felt safe. The process of getting ready to get in the water is strenuous, but worth it. Remarkably, the only part of me to get cold was my face. But after a couple minutes, you adjust. Spectacular views and it was also unique to be able to take a drink of the water.
