The beautiful surroundings and relaxing setting make it a wonderful escape from the city. Thank you for choosing to travel with us! Kind regards, Inga
Pick up process was smooth and went as described. Bus was on the small side with seats close together. A little cramped for anyone over 5’10”. Driver was friendly and safe (but was just a driver - no commentary). Hvammsvik Hot Springs was very nice. We enjoyed trying the different pools (with varying degrees of warmth) and the occasional “plunge” in the cold ocean. It was very relaxing to sit in the hot pools and view the scenery. We were there midday and it was not crowded. There was plenty of room in each pool. Lockers and shower facilities were clean and efficient. We ate lunch there. A little pricey but good. We would take this tour again.

The hot springs were great! Beautiful place immersed in scenic natural surroundings. Bring water shoes if you want to go into the ocean, it’s rocky but the cold plunge was so refreshing. I’m a little disappointed with the communication with the tour company. After reaching out three times about a pick up at the cruise terminal I got no where. We taxied to the bus station and returned there and had to taxi back to the port. The ride there and back was fine and the experience at the springs was wonderful. I definitely recommend
Dear Traveler, Thank you for your review! We’re glad you enjoyed the hot springs and the beautiful surroundings. We sincerely apologize for the communication issues regarding your pickup and appreciate your feedback. Best Regards, Gabriele
This was an absolutely stunning experience. I had gone to the Blue Lagoon earlier in the week, and while I really enjoyed that one, the Hvammsvik Hot Springs are on another level. It was a relaxing escape that afforded the opportunity to literally soak in the stunning Icelandic scenery. Quiet and not overrun with tourists, it was the perfect getaway for a few hours. After a good soak in the springs, and a freezing cold plunge in the fjord, I decided to clean off and grab lunch in the cafe. Don't let the small rustic space of the cafe fool you - the food is next level along with the hot springs. Booking through Viator and finding the bus was relatively easy, for an overall enjoyable tour. Hands down a great experience and highly recommend!

Scenic drive there. Great choice of pools from hot to cool. Or, dip in the inlet. Bring beach shoes; beach sand a bit sharp. Great snacks at the Cafe.

This is my only hot spring experience in Iceland and I’m very glad I picked here. It’s not big but has enough spaces to still feel private. It just hard to beat that you get the beautiful view in the back drop.

Warm water, big mountains. The showers at the hot springs are great, with good shampoo and soap. The cafe has a beautiful view. But I spent too much time in the hot springs to take advantage of the cafe.
