3.Snaefellsnes Peninsula Full Day Tour from Reykjavik

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,036 reviews · 11 hours (approx.) · from $138Best value

A long, car-free day around Iceland’s west coast, with lava fields, Kirkjufell, black sand beaches, and sea cliffs from Reykjavik.

“The tour was okay, not as good as the other tours we booked in the week. The itinerary felt a bit rushed and the guide barely spoke throughout the day and didn’t even tell us his name. Tour probably would’ve been better on a different day.”

Full-day small-group drive from Reykjavik around Snæfellsnes: seals, black sand, Snæfellsjökull and Kirkjufell. Small group, guided stops.

“Amazing trip. Lot of things to see. In my mind this really showcases the amazing nature of Iceland. There was enough time in every stop and that was really important. Our designated tour guide moved rapidly so that we had time to see everything. Also his stories and knowledge of snaefellesnes was interesting. Lunch schedule was little bit tight but otherwise all gucci.”

“Great tour experience! I would recommend. My guide tour Christo was knowledgable and friendly - he even gave us a 15 minute summary of an old Islandic tale (Egils saga!) on the way to the national park. Climbing to top of the crater is literally breath-taking on a sunny day - and perfect for photos!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 295 reviews · 11 hours (approx.) · from $149

Small-group Snæfellsnes day trip with hotel pickup, seals, black sand beaches and Kirkjufell photos, plus folklore in English.

“The tour with our guide, Siggi, was wonderful. We had plenty of time at each stop without feeling rushed. Siggi was informative and interesting. The sights did take time to get to, but that was expected. Kirkjufell was lovely at sunset, and the beach with the seals was surprisingly peaceful and beautiful. The landscape had recently been dusted with snow, so everything looked magical. We also were able to see the glacier and it was amazing!”
