Itinerário
Hafnarhólmi é uma pequena ilha perto do porto da pequena vila de pescadores, Borgarfjordur-Eystri. Esta extinção rochosa é o lar de uma das maiores colônias Altantic Puffin do mundo. Todos os verões, casais de ninhos regressam aqui para criar seus brotos. Hafnarhólmi, é muito acessível, permitindo que todos possam ver de perto esta espécie ferida.
Enquanto visita a pitoresca aldeia de Bakkagerði em Borgarfjordur-Eystri, você pode encontrar este exemplo puro da clássica casa de grama islandesa. As paredes de grama espessa e o telhado revestido de grama forneceram isolamento essencial contra os elementos de tempos passados. Muitos islandeses continuaram a viver em casas assim até o início do século 20.
Para aqueles que desejam fazer uma caminhada fácil enquanto na aldeia de Bakkagerði poderia caminhar Alfaborg, ou rocha elfo, que é um monumento em uma colina com vista Borgarfjordur-Eystri. Esta parada era considerada a casa da rainha elfo da Islândia. Saiba mais sobre folclore e crenças islandesas. Mesmo se você não manter muito stock com histórias folclóricas, não se pode deixar de admirar as vistas dramáticas oen pode desfrutar deste ponto de vista da colina.
Gufufoss é uma pequena cachoeira que se encaixa suavemente em uma falésia rugosa. Devido à sua aparência, às vezes é comparado ao seu primo maior no sul, Skógafoss. As quedas lançam uma névoa suave, que explica seu nome - Gufu significa vapores em islandês.

This was an awesome excursion to see the puffins! I am still speechless from the tour a couple days ago. The pictures are phenomenal! We were very close to the puffins and they literally were flying so close to us we could feel the wind from their flight. I admit I was concerned we were going to miss them because our cruise was late in the season but we were truly blessed. After the puffins we made a pitstop and had some delicious sweet bread? Pastry. Not sure of the proper terminology but the people that provided it were very welcoming, informative and gave us samples of a delicious snack. There was coffee but we're not coffee drinkers so we had delicious Iceland water. The scenery in the area was beautiful. And all of this was before the waterfall LOL. I'd do this trip again in a heartbeat. The only thing is you have to walk up steps to get to the puffins. If you have trouble with steps you will not be able to get to the puffins. Not a drawback for us but some people opted out of the walk up to the puffins because of the amount of steps.
The guide was fabulous and very knowledgeable. The other stops along the way were fantastic. But the highlight was absolutely the puffins. We saw 1000s. It was our best day of the entire trip. Don’t miss this tour.
Very nice and comfortable tour. Not too much walking, get to enjoy the view, see puffins, learn a lot about iceland people and culture.
This was an excellent tour. However, beyond the tour operator control is the exact time of the Puffin migration in August. Check the Puffin availability for the time you book. We had a terrific tour and saw many Puffins up close despite being near the end of the season. We would book it again. Tour guide and bus driver were terrific.
Loved seeing so much of Iceland, such beauty. Was thrilled with the Puffins. As a favor to our tour guide I will omit rating her.
Saga was a very good guide. She offered us to change tours since it was at the end of puffin season and said we may not see many. Glad we stayed as there were hundreds of puffins that were very close to photograph.
The tour was fascinating; we saw a great many puffins and other seabirds. Our guide Saga gave us great information (with a personal touch) about the country and its people 👍. The stop at the elf town or the peat house could have been 10 to 15 minutes longer. The visit to Gufufoss finally rounded off the trip. It was one of the best tours we have taken in Iceland.
Great experience and our tour guide was awesome She was a local girl, very knowledgeable and truly loved what she was doing.
Our guide Saga and driver Arthur did an outstanding job showing us just how beautiful Eastern Iceland really is! We were so lucky to have a lovely day (weather wise), we got to see the puffins (100’s and unusual to see that many this late in August as many fledgelings have left the nest already) , and got to taste a wonderful Icelandic twisted donut and cup of coffee as a bonus! The scenery was just awe inspiring; mountains, waterfalls, free range sheep. The whole tour was just not to be missed. I’m so glad I found it. Booking was easy. Our tickets arrived in email, no problem. Would I do it again? Absolutely!
This was an amazing tour for me. I have always wanted to see the puffins and I was not disappointed. There were so many there on the day of my tour and they were so cute. The weather was great that day- no rain!
