Hi, I'm Kalman and I've been living in Iceland for the past ten years. As an experienced tour guide, I have developed a deep passion and knowledge for the unique landscape and culture of Iceland. My goal is to provide an unforgettable private tour experience that is tailored specifically to your interests and preferences. From the Golden Circle to the Northern Lights, I will take you on a journey that will create lasting memories.
Watch the dancing lights in the arctic sky. Head out of Reykjavík in a minibus on a dark winter evening to catch the dazzling show across the Icelandic sky: the Northern Lights. Let your skilled local guide take you to a hidden spot unreachable by larger tour buses, promising you not just a chance to see the Northern Lights, but also an unforgettable journey in itself – away from the bustling crowds. Watch the dancing green and sometimes purple lights as they snake through the sky above-head, before heading back to your cozy hotel in the capital city.
Throughout the tour, you'll be accompanied by knowledgeable local guide who will share fascinating insights into the history, geology, and folklore of Borgarfjörður. Whether you're an avid nature enthusiast, a thrill-seeking adventurer, or simply seeking to immerse yourself in the unparalleled beauty of Iceland's wilderness, our Borgarfjörður tour promises an unforgettable experience that will leave you in awe of the natural wonders that abound in this extraordinary corner of the world.
This peninsula showcases a diverse array of Icelandic landscapes, earning it the moniker "Iceland in miniature." Despite its remote location, away from the bustling Ring Road, Snæfellsnes remains sparsely inhabited, often overlooked by travelers who prefer more beaten paths. Culturally, Snæfellsnes holds significance as well. Its dramatic scenery served as the backdrop for Jules Verne's iconic novel "Journey to the Center of the Earth" and subsequent film adaptations. It also stood in for the northern landscapes in "Game of Thrones." Mt. Kirkjufell, beloved by Icelanders, famously depicted the Arrowhead mountain. Exploring Snæfellsnes reveals not only Mt. Kirkjufell but also the nearby Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall, the awe-inspiring Arnarstapi Bird Cliffs with their stone bridge and arch, the striking Djúpalónssandur black beach, and much more. Visitors may also encounter the famed black church of Búðir and perhaps catch a glimpse of seals at Ytri-Tunga beach.
Delve into the geological wonders shaped by volcanic activity along the mid-Atlantic ridge's fissure line, where eruptions, earthquakes, and seismic phenomena unfold. The tour unfolds a captivating narrative of the region's geothermal marvels, natural spectacles, and breathtaking landscapes. The highlight centers on a trek through the recent eruption sites, spanning from 2021 to the present, near Fagradalsfjall Volcano. Witness the aftermath of the July 2023 eruption near Litli Hrutur and the ongoing activity near Sundhnukagigar Volcano, which erupted in December 2023. Led by our experienced guide, the journey extends beyond the volcanic marvels to include other Reykjanes Peninsula highlights. Experience the bubbling waters and sulphuric steam of Seltún and Gunnuhver hot springs, traverse the Bridge between Continents for a stroll between the American and Eurasian plates and explore the black sand beaches surrounding Kleifarvatn Lake. This comprehensive tour promises an unforgettable encounter with Iceland's dynamic landscapes and geological wonders.Optional pick up or drop off at Keflavik airport.
