Volcano Hike & Northern Lights Combo Tour
Beskrivning
Island är den enda platsen på jorden där det är möjligt att kombinera dessa fantastiska turer; en vandring till ett levande vulkanutbrott och en kvällstur på norrskensjakt. Din dag börjar sent på morgonen med att följa med på vår rundtur till utbrottsplatsen vid Meradalir. Detta innebär en 1,5-2 timmars vandring varje väg över ojämn terräng och skulle anses vara av måttlig svårighet för den genomsnittliga, någorlunda vältränade personen. Njut av spektaklet när tusentals kubikmeter rykande het magma bryter ut från vulkanens kärna. Efter din tid vid vulkanen, kommer du att släppas tillbaka till staden där du kommer att ha tid för middag och för att fräscha upp dig innan din kvällstur med norrskensjakt. Våra guider, efter att ha konsulterat norrskensprognosen från isländska Met Office, tar dig till det område som med största sannolikhet är fritt från molntäcke och hoppas att se norrskenets skimrande ljusshow. Vi tar dig till 2 eller 3 platser i hopp om den bästa visningen. Den här norrskensturen är vanligtvis cirka 4 timmar lång.
Turalternativ
Resplan
Njut av den spektakulära utsikten över sjön Kleifarvatn.
Vandra till vulkanutbrottsplatsen genom de mossbeklädda lavafälten och bergen med vår expertreseguide. (Kan variera från cirka 2-4 timmars vandring och rutter ändras på grund av vulkanaktiviteten)
Kör runt Reykjaneshalvön och titta på unika omgivningar.
Se det färgstarka geotermiska området vid Seltún Hot Springs. (detta hoppas över på längre vandringar)
Besök norrskenscentret i Reykjavik och lär dig om Aurora-fenomen. Norrskenet, även känt som Aurora Borealis på norra halvklotet, är faktiskt resultatet av kollisioner mellan gasformiga partiklar i jordens atmosfär med laddade partiklar som frigörs från solens atmosfär.
Norrskensjakt Följ med på en äventyrskväll på den isländska landsbygden! Platserna som besöks skiljer sig från dag till dag eftersom vi går i den riktning som har störst chans att se norrsken. Eftersom denna turné är väderberoende och observationer inte är garanterade är du välkommen att gå med på en annan norrskenstur utan kostnad.

We first did the volcano hike. It’s absolutely amazing! The lava fields seem so unreal! It’s a unique environment to experience. We also stopped at Grindavik for lunch and to see the photo exhibition of the 2023 eruption. We visited blue lagoon afterwards, a beautiful, relaxing end to our stay in Iceland. a truely memorable experience.
This review is for the Westman islands volcano and world largest puffin colony tour. Our guide Vjeran Misurac was fantastic. I have been on many tours and this was one of the best. He was very knowledgeable and helpful answering questions. The tour was great and we saw some interesting things.
On a very wonderful day, the tour guide Ottor almost kept introducing knowledge points on the road. He explained the driver and the guide part-time, which was very professional and experienced. Friendly and enthusiastic. He took us on an unusual volcanic hiking route. The scenery was very beautiful. I felt it when I walked on the black magma land. Although the route was challenging, it added more fun. All this is possible because of Ottor, the best guide I have ever met in Iceland. He is like an old friend. Thank you! If Ottar is your guide, you have a really nice day.
A wonderful tour with an amazing hike to the newest volcano in Iceland. Vjeran, our guide, was awesome and gave us all the time we wanted to explore and see the sights. Definitely recommend this when visiting
I received a message the day before that my tour had been changed due to scheduling. This was listed as an upgrade to a full day, 10 hour volcano and sightseeing tour starting 2.5 hours earlier than originally booked. It seemed to me that this would replace the entire booking. Because of this, I booked a separate northern lights tour to supplement what was to be missed with the new agenda that was emailed to me. I received no other communication regarding the northern lights portion of my original booking until getting a call and email that my guide was looking for me and would be leaving in 2 minutes. Moving forward, any communication regarding modifications of the original booking should also summarize what is NOT being changed. That would’ve saved me about $120. Otherwise, the volcano hike and sightseeing tour were excellent. It is unfortunate that my memory of this tour will be how I had to pay twice for the northern lights due to poor communication from the tour company.
Went on a tour on Nov 29, I wish I could remember who my tour guide and bus driver were (maybe Hindrik?) as they were amazing and knew so much stories about Iceland. The stories were so engaging and funny. While the volcano hike was a little strenuous, our guide made sure to check on us! Seeing the erupting volcano from afar was a story I tell everyone!
Omar was our tour guide and he was amazing. Very friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and a great photographer. The hike itself was beautiful but I wouldn’t say it was easy. Pretty steep so keep that in mind. The sites were amazing and it was very cool to see the lava.
This tour got changed to a different hike and the hot river and it was amazing. The guide we had was so friendly and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with him. I can't remember his name but if we went back, I would love to request him again. Highly recommend!
This was an incredible hike, the topography and geological aftermath of the 2021,2022 and 2023 eruptions were breathtaking and other worldly. It was a challenging 10 kilometer hike, led by Dave and Ignacio , but worth it for the views, it took our group a solid 4 hours round trip including about an hour of viewing stops and according to our guides , we were going at a relatively fast clip,.. Be advised there is no rest stop after the hike ( we did about 2 hours of sightseeing and driving afterwards) so avail yourself of the portapotties before leaving the site, and bring enough water and food for the day as there is no place visited for either. Kudos to our masterful bus driver Artur on some really narrow roads! We retuned back to Reykjavik for a meal and rest before being picked up by our Aurora lights tour led by Victoria and driven masterfully by Halli. It was a beautiful, clear night but alas the Northern lights eluded us. Nonetheless, Vicki told tales of Icelandic folklore and sang songs of childhood ( she has an incredible voice!!), gave us hot chocolate and her energy really made it a very worthwhile event. The stars at night in Iceland are bright and plentiful with many wishes on shooting stars made. Glad we tried! All in all, an wonderful and memorable day!
Best experience I have had in Iceland. The tour guide was amazing and informative. I do wish I got a pickup up time for the northern lights. I missed the bus for that, but it was an overall great experience
