Whale Watching med RIB Speedboat fra Downtown Reykjavik
Beskrivelse
Kom ombord på en spændende RIB-speedbåd og se den utrolige rigdom af marine dyreliv, der lever i vandet lige ud for Reykjavik Citys kyster. Naturelskere, der ønsker at se nogle af Islands majestætiske hvaler, delfiner og marsvin, men som ønsker at gøre det i en lille gruppe, bør gribe denne chance nu. Turen starter fra Reykjavíks gamle havn, og under din rejse vil du rejse mellem de små øer i Faxaflói-bugten samt langs Reykjaviks kyst, hvilket giver dig en fantastisk udsigt over byen, mens du leder efter dyrelivet i vandet . Bemærk venligst Turen har en aldersgrænse på 10 år og en højdegrænse på 145 cm. Da dette er en dyrelivstur, kan vi aldrig forudsige eller garantere observationer af nogen art. I tilfælde af at vi ikke støder på nogen hvaler eller delfiner, tilbyder vi ikke refusion, men giver i stedet vores passagerer en gratis billet til at bruge en anden dag. Vi kan aflyse en tur på grund af dårligt vejr eller hvis minimum antal deltagere ikke nås.

Rejseplan
Oplev glæden ved tætte møder med mægtige hvaler, yndefulde delfiner eller legende marsvin på vores nemme hvalsafariture fra Reykjavíks centrum. Vi vil gøre dette til en "once-in-a-lifetime oplevelse, som du kan huske! Hele året rundt vil du være i stand til at se en bred vifte af oceangående pattedyr kun få minutter fra kysten, herunder våge-, pukkel- og spækhuggere, samt hvidnæbbede delfiner og marsvin. Sommeren er topperioden, men der er altid noget fantastisk at finde i Faxafloi-bugten – såvel som at nyde den spektakulære natur, der omgiver hovedstaden.
Harpa er en koncertsal og et konferencecenter i Reykjavík, Island. Åbningskoncerten blev afholdt den 4. maj 2011. Bygningen har en markant farvet glasfacade inspireret af Islands basaltlandskab.
Faxafloi-bugten ligger på dens sydlige kyst. Fra Reykjavik er det muligt at se halvøen Akranes i nordøst og endda Snæfellsjökull i en afstand af omkring 120 km (75 mi). Denne bugt har få øer, og dem, den har, er tæt på land, især i modsætning til bugten lige nord for den, Breiðafjörður, som har flest øer af enhver bugt i Island.
Engey er den næststørste ø i Kollafjörður (Faxa Bay) fjorden i det vestlige Island.
Lundey, bogstaveligt talt "Puffin Island" på islandsk, er en lille, ubeboet ø ud for Reykjaviks vestkyst, Island.
Viðey er den største ø i Kollafjörður-bugten i Island, nær Reykjavíks hovedstad.

I think that it’s the best experience ever. And thanks to Oscar and the captain who did an amazing job and I will definitely book this again!! I did this in June and it’s the best, weather is literally perfect! :) I’m so glad I did this with you guys!
This trip was fun ! Some patience needed for up close and personal viewing. But once it happens, it is wonderful. For both whales and puffins!
Good organization, an amazing experiance
Just do it! We first did a whale tour with a big boat but could not match this. Seen 4 different species, a total of 10 whales and 2 species of dolphins. There is quickly found, and at the end the climax came with 2 humpback whales 2 meters away swimming alongside our boat. Thank you to Julien and the top captain. (We also stayed bone dry and had nice and warm)
This was a highlight from our time in Reykjavik. The speed boat tours created a smaller group experience compared to the larger boats that looked very crowded. Our guide was a marine biologist who answered all of our questions throughout the tour. I had read some reviews about the speed boats being rough, but we didn’t have any problems (it was a pretty calm day, though) and actually enjoyed hitting a few of the waves! We spotted several whales and dolphins during our tour - would definitely recommend this for anyone looking at whale watching tours in Reykjavik!

I had read some reviews about how rough the speed boats were but we didn’t have any issues (it was a pretty calm day, though). Our guide was a marine biologist and was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions during the tour. We saw several whales and a school of dolphins during our tour.
Very friendly crew and they tried hard for us to see all 4 varieties of whales. We did and got super close!
Honestly, this is nothing to do with the company, but I wanted to warn others about this activity in general in case it isn't their thing. I went with my husband and 11 year old son. We were given equipment to keep us warm and dry (pro tip, use ALL the equipment and bring a hat -- even in the summer). The first ten minutes were lovely. Then we got into open water and the real spray began. It was like sitting on a bicycle and having buckets of cold saltwater thrown on you repeatedly. Shoes: soaked to the point of being squishy. Jeans: dripping wet. Jacket: damp and cold. And this was WITH the one piece snowsuit they give you. I could hardly look around because there was seawater being blown at me on every down slope of every wave. It wouldn't matter anyway because we saw no whales, which I understand as the company has no control over that. I couldn't have taken pictures even if we'd seen something as my hands were soaked despite wearing gloves and it was far too wet to use my phone anyway. The guide and captain were very nice but I will NEVER do that again, despite the complementary ticket they offer when you don't see whales.
One of the best whale-watching tours we've ever been on and we've been on a lot. Saw so many whales up close and personal. I know a lot of this was about luck but we also had a great captain and first mate. They found us the whales and would get us so close and would stay in one place long enough for the whales to resurface a couple of times before moving on. Wish we could do it again!
We had a great time on this excursion. Claudia and our experienced captain took great care of us. This trip is just the right combination of excitement and fun. We saw minke whales, puffins and spent most of our time up close with two humpbacks whales. I highly recommend this adventure! Also kudos to their booking staff who provided excellent communication.
