Reisroute
Begin uw avontuur bij de majestueuze Kirkjufellsfoss waterval, gelegen aan de voet van Kirkjufell. Bewonder de synergie van de berg en de watervallen en leg ansichtkaart-perfecte momenten vast tegen de grootsheid van de natuur. Dit dynamische duo van natuurlijke schoonheid is een must-see voor fotografen en natuurliefhebbers.
Ontdek vervolgens Djúpalónssandur, een betoverend zwart zandstrand versierd met de overblijfselen van een scheepswrak. Voel de oude geesten van de zee terwijl u de mystieke stenen ontdekt die verspreid liggen langs de kust, elk met zijn eigen unieke historische betekenis. Het dramatische landschap van het strand, met zwarte kiezels en donkere lavaformaties, creëert een buitenaardse sfeer.
Als u langs de kustlijn reist, komt u Lóndrangar tegen: kolossale basaltrotsen die dramatisch uit de zee oprijzen. Deze natuurlijke sculpturen, overblijfselen van een vulkanische krater die door de oceaan is geërodeerd, zijn een bewijs van de rauwe geologische kracht van IJsland. Vogels floreren hier, wat bijdraagt aan het dynamische landschap.
Bezoek Arnarstapi, een schilderachtig vissersdorp met een adembenemende schoonheid aan de kust. Wandel langs de kliffen aan de kust, adem de frisse zeelucht in en bekijk het rijke vogelleven dat nestelt in de basaltkolommen. De Gatklettur-boog, een natuurlijke rotspoort, is een hoogtepunt van de kustallure van het dorp.
Uw reis eindigt in Búðir, met de iconische zwarte kerk tegen een achtergrond van lavavelden en de Snæfellsjökull-gletsjer. Deze pittoreske locatie nodigt uit tot reflectie en biedt een perfecte fotogelegenheid. De eenvoudige maar suggestieve architectuur van de Búðir-kerk staat als een tijdloos symbool van spiritualiteit te midden van het kale landschap.

All stops on the tour were 5 star stops. Our tour guide Matthew was very knowledgeable. He loved his job and loved Iceland. It really made for a wonderful experience.

We’re delighted to hear that all the stops felt like 5-star highlights and that Matthew’s passion for Iceland made the experience even more special. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for more adventures in the future. Warm regards, The Iceland Highlights Team
The tour was fantastic. Great opportunities to experience the area and wonderful back stories. Would’ve liked more time to walk on the beach and wish the weather was a little bit better.
Dear pinkpadigal, Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed exploring the area and appreciated the stories shared along the way. We completely understand wanting more time on the beach — and we wish we could have ordered perfect weather for you too! We hope the memories of the stunning landscapes make up for the clouds, and we’d love to welcome you back for another visit in the future (maybe with more sunshine!).
Thomas was a gem of a tour guide! Such knowledge and wit! A true local, the best guide we had the entire trip! We saw so many places and it was truly a highlight of our trip!
Driver/Guide was knowledgeable but didn’t share as much as I expected. We drove by some places but didn’t stop. There is a lot of driving/riding time on this tour.
Dear David, Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we truly appreciate you joining our tour from Grundarfjörður. We’re glad to hear that your driver-guide was knowledgeable, though we’re sorry to learn the commentary didn’t fully meet your expectations. We always aim to strike a good balance between driving and storytelling, and your comments help us improve this experience for future guests. Regarding the stops — some locations are drive-by sights due to time constraints or accessibility, but we understand it can be disappointing when expectations differ. We’ll certainly review the day’s flow with the guide to ensure we’re offering the best mix of scenery, stories, and photo opportunities. Thank you again for choosing Iceland Highlights — we hope to have the chance to welcome you back for a more engaging experience next time.
The most impressive thing about the Viator tour, other than the scenery, was our driver's focus on allowing our group extra time when we requested yet still keeping us ahead of the large tour bus groups. Kudos!
Dear Gary, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the stunning scenery and appreciated the flexibility and care your driver showed throughout the day. It’s always our goal to make the experience feel personal — giving you the time to enjoy each stop without the crowds, while still staying perfectly on schedule. We’re grateful you chose to tour with us and hope to welcome you back to Iceland for more adventures in the future!
this was a well constructed tour covering all the highlights of this area for much less than the cruise we were on was charging for basically the same tour.
Dear Richard, Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re thrilled to hear you found the tour well-constructed and informative — and that you enjoyed exploring the beautiful highlights of the Grundarfjörður area with us. It’s always rewarding to know that our guests feel they’re getting great value and a more personal experience compared to the larger cruise excursions. We truly appreciate you joining us and hope to welcome you back to Iceland in the future for more adventures!
We had a nice tour with Matt. He was on time, the van was really nice, and the five hours passed quickly. Matt is full of information and very friendly. We had the right amount of time at all of the stops. Highly recommend doing this vs the tour offered by our cruise ship. We visited the same places, but there were only ten people vs a large bus. And it cost less!
Dear Darlene, Thank you so much for your lovely review — we’re delighted to hear you had such a great experience with us in Grundarfjörður! Matt will be thrilled to know that his friendly nature and insightful guiding helped make your tour enjoyable and memorable. It’s wonderful to hear that the small group experience added extra comfort and value to your day, especially compared to the large cruise ship excursions. We truly appreciate your recommendation and are so glad you chose to explore the Snæfellsnes Peninsula with us. If your travels ever bring you back to Iceland, we’d be honored to welcome you again!
Tom was one of our favorite guides in Iceland! He made the tour so fun and was very knowledgeable. We had plenty of time at each stop and didn’t feel rushed at all. Great spots to visit!
