Full description

Explore the dynamic Reykjanes Peninsula, a region shaped by Iceland's powerful geological forces. Visit the town of Grindavík, where earthquakes and lava flows once devastated the landscape, forcing evacuations and reshaping the area.

 Your adventure will take you to a geothermal hotspot, scenic Kleifarvatn Lake, and Iceland’s oldest lighthouse. Walk across the Bridge Between Continents, marvel at ancient lava fields blanketed in vibrant moss, and witness the raw energy of the land.

 Please note: The Reykjanes Peninsula, particularly around Grindavík, remains volcanically active. If eruptions disrupt our plans, we’ll adjust the route to offer the best possible views of the activity.

My wife, adult daughter and I booked this tour with “Your Friend in Reykjavik” through Viator the during the afternoon we arrived in Iceland. Our tour guide, Cristin, was excellent. She met the group at the designated meeting location ahead of schedule. She was very friendly and informative about everything Reykjavik. Iceland is a fascinating place with so much history, and she did a great job of bringing it to life. We would definitely recommend this tour and guide to anyone new to the city.

Ester E was our guide today on our Iceland Women walking tour and the group LOVED her and the tour. We enjoyed hanging out for conversation after the walking portion as well. I would highly recommend doing a tour with Ester E!
