Privéverkenning van het schiereiland Snæfellsnes
Beschrijving
Het schiereiland Snæfellsnes wordt meestal "IJsland in het klein" genoemd. Het is een klein stukje land in het westelijke deel van IJsland en biedt nog steeds alle verschillende soorten landschappen die je in IJsland kunt vinden: watervallen, vulkanische kraters, gletsjers, lavavelden, meren en meer ... Tijdens deze tour laat je gids je alle hoogtepunten van het schiereiland zien. Een geweldige reis door de vulkanische geschiedenis en IJslandse sagen.

Kirkjufell betekent "kerkberg". Het is een op zichzelf staande berg gelegen in een baai in de buurt van het vissersdorpje Grundarfjörður. Het is eigenlijk de meest gefotografeerde berg van IJsland, en je zult begrijpen waarom wanneer je de kans krijgt om die berg en de nabijgelegen waterval in één foto vast te leggen. Mount Kirkjufell werd nog beroemder dan het was nadat het te zien was in de tv-show: Game of Thrones, waar het wordt genoemd: de "pijlpuntberg".
Waarschijnlijk het op één na populairste zwarte zandstrand van IJsland, net na Reynisfjara. Djúpalónssandur is niet alleen de plaats van de meest ongelooflijke rotsformaties, maar het is ook de hele sfeer die dit strand zo uniek maakt. Van de stenen op het strand die werden gebruikt om de kracht van de aspirant-vissers te testen tot de roestige overblijfselen van scheepswrakken die overal verspreid lagen, Djúpalónssandur zit vol geschiedenis
Arnarstapi is een vissersdorp op het schiereiland Snæfellsnes. Eenmaal daar aangekomen, wordt u begroet door Bárður Snæfellsás, de eerste kolonist en bewaker van het schiereiland. Maar echt, dit dorp staat bekend om zijn kustlijn en de abrupte kliffen die in de Atlantische Oceaan vallen.
Op het puntje van het schiereiland culmineert een indrukwekkende stratovulkaan bedekt door de gletsjer van Snæfellsjökull. Deze vulkaan/gletsjer, centraal in het gelijknamige nationale park, is de vulkaan waar het originele verhaal van "Reis naar het middelpunt van de aarde" van Jules Verne zich afspeelt. We zullen er omheen rijden tijdens ons woon-werkverkeer tussen bezienswaardigheden.

We spent a few days with Philippe touring the South Coast (including a glacier hike) and the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. It was my first time visiting Iceland and touring with Philippe, and the second time for the rest of the family. We had an amazing time with him. He is so, so knowledgeable, shares so much and in such interesting manner, and adapts himself and the tour to the group amazingly well. He is very kind and helpful, an excellent safe driver, his vehicle is super comfortable and pleasant - the whole thing was simply a delight. I am already thinking about the next trip and tour with Philippe, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone that would want to visit Iceland.
Thank you very Much Alan for your kind words. We've been very happy to guide your family two times already and are looking forward to doing it again! Thanks again for traveling with us, Julien
Julien did an excellent job showing us the wonders of the Snaefellsness peninsula. He was very knowledgeable. Everything was well-organized, relaxed, and enjoyable from start to finish. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly recommended!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure to guide you through the beautiful Snaefellsnes peninsula. Your kind recommendation means a lot! Thank you for choosing Lilja Tours, and I hope to welcome you again for more Icelandic adventures!
We chose the Snaefellsness Peninsula tour. Julien picked us up from our hotel located in Reykjavik. We had the chance to make several stops in beautiful places. Each stop reserved its bed of surprises, indescribable views and landscapes and a climate specific to each place. We feel like we’ve had a great trip in one day. Julien taught us a lot about Iceland, its history, people and volcanoes. His driving was perfect despite the rapid changes in time. We recommend 200%!! Brice and Olivier
Merci à vous d'avoir pris le temps de nous laisser un commentaire. Je suis ravi d'avoir contribué à ce que vous passiez des vacances formidables en Islande. Julien
Our guide, Yandy, was so fun and kind, and he made sure we got to see everything we wanted without feeling rushed. The scenery is incredible - just riding in the car is a breathtaking experience, but don't miss the hidden views you get by walking a bit at each stop. The Snæfellsnes Peninsula is a must-see destination if you're visiting Iceland, and this personal tour is so much better than being on a bus! Thank you, Yandy!
Amazing, thank you for the review, Yandy is great guide!
The views were magnificent!😍 Julien is a great guide who introduced us to great places.
Merci Valérie, je suis heureux que vous ayez apprécié votre journée!
Many excursion solutions exist for Iceland. On one side there is the bus of 50 people, and on the other a private 4x4 with Julien who is French-speaking and proved to be a perfect guide. Of course it's more expensive, but no more worries about schedules, photo stops, peeing, shopping and chocolate stops, etc... Freedom is priceless. Obviously he knows everything about Iceland including the secrets he will reveal to you. Plus he's super nice and so it's the best of the best of the excursion. He always has his camera with him and will happily immortalize your best moments. Highly recommended. (Given the quality of the personalized service, we did two additional excursions: Golden Circle and Northern Lights!)
Merci Pierre, j'ai passé de bons moments avec vous, continuez á voyager comme vous le faîtes!
We wanted a private tour so we could see the famous sights but have a chance to go off the beaten path as well. Julien was the perfect guide for this. He took us to the big places in the peninsula but tailored the trip to what we wanted. We saw little or no tourists on the tour and it was so special! We walked behind waterfalls, hiked up to the top of them, walked the cliffs and hiked a beach by ourselves! Julien shared stories and sights that we would have completely missed without him. Our lunch stop was one of the best meals of our whole vacation! I almost didn't book a tour of the peninsula but I'm so glad I did. It was my family's highlight. I recommend emailing Julien in advance if you have any special requests as he responds right away. He is an expert hiker and can build that into your tour easily. He is the BEST!!!!
Hello Linda, Sorry, it took me so long to answer. Thank you very much for the review. I am happy to read that this day was the highlight of your trip and hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay in Iceland. Looking forward to guiding you again in Iceland, Julien
My life's dream: to visit Iceland in winter and see the Northern Lights. This dream has just come true thanks to and with Julien de Lilja tour. Julien is the perfect guide: young, dynamic, very organized and above all very attentive to his customers, All the visits made proved to be pure moments of happiness and the anecdotes or ancient Icelandic legends told by Julien added to this magnificence!! The restaurants reserved for lunch were always a discovery: typical Icelandic restaurants, where the food was simple but good, as Julien liked to say. A. real treat!! For the aurora borealis, Julien has mastered everything: the variations in the weather, the unforeseen movements of clouds, ... he has not counted his hours and encouraged our patience to finally get the vision of this magnificent natural phenomenon. Dazzling!! I will return to Iceland to learn more about Iceland and without hesitation I will call on Julien's services. I recommend you, Julien de Lilja Tour, so friendly and professional.
Merci énormément Béatrice pour ce retour. Je suis toujours heureux de savoir que mes clients ont passé un moment exceptionnel. Je serai ravi de m'occuper de votre prochain séjour.
