Itinerary
Day 1
Evening departure from Reykjavík harbour for a New Year's Eve yacht cruise on the Amelia Rose. Guests meet at the harbour boarding point ahead of departure for check-in and boarding.
Check-in & boarding at harbour (Ægisgarður 5b)
Arrive at the harbour boarding point for check-in and boarding. Staff will confirm bookings and direct guests to the Amelia Rose. Boarding time includes a short buffer to stow coats and find a comfortable spot.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive by 22:00 to allow time for check-in and boarding; taxis can drop off directly at Ægisgarður 5b.
- Dress in warm, layered clothing and wear sturdy shoes — Icelandic harbour areas can be windy and chilly.
- Bring your booking confirmation and ID for check-in; keep valuables secure while boarding.
New Year's Eve Reykjavík Cruise on the Amelia Rose
Two-hour yacht cruise departing the harbour at 22:30. Relax on the panoramic decks or inside the warm interior. A complimentary glass of champagne will be served as midnight approaches to toast the New Year. The yacht returns to the same harbour at approximately 00:30.
Tips from local experts:
- Head to an upper deck early in the cruise for the best unobstructed view of the city fireworks at midnight.
- Warm blankets and a heated interior are provided, but bring a warm hat and gloves — temperatures on deck can feel several degrees colder.
- If you are prone to motion sickness, take available seasickness tablets before departure; restrooms are available on board.
