Midnight sun whale watching from Reykjavik with warm coveralls, onboard commentary, and included Whale Watching Centre access.
“Brilliant experience from start to finish. We saw humpbacks, minke whales, white-beaked dolphins and puffins. Commentary from the naturalist on board was lively and interesting. The ship is a decent size with toilet, bar for hot drinks, and also provides overalls and rugs if you're cold. The office is easy to find and they were very prompt and helpful responding to email queries.”
Experience humpback whales in Eyjafjörður from Akureyri during Iceland’s midnight sun, with heated comfort, thermal overalls, and a naturalist guide.
“The captain worked very hard to find whales. I do realize that the whales are unpredictable and company has no control over if they show. The 3 hour tour turned in to a 5 hour tour. We did see several small humpback whale tails but none came up much out of the water. We have seen a lot more in Maine and Alaska. We could not hear the guide so did not get any of the information. We traveled a long way to find them so the return trip at midnight was long. Could use better speakers and some entertainment like music or area information/history.”
Midnight sun sea kayaking at Mt. Kirkjufell in a small group, with warm drysuits, wildlife chances, and hot chocolate after sunset.
“Wow. The colors of the water, the sky, and Kirkjufell were spectacular. Funny, knowledgeable guides. Definitely do this activity at night.”

“It was exciting!! Take the anti-sickness pill if you want to be able to move back and forth, to follow the whale whilst the boat is moving. It was a great night! TIP: I have my binoculars and a camera attach to it, and that levelled up my experience!💕”

“Unique experience you can't find many places.
