Overview

This private tour explores the best of West Iceland. The Snæfellsnes peninsula has some of Iceland’s best sights, with the beauty and mystique inspiring world famous novels, enchanting visitors every day. This is a one day trip that you will not forget. We start the day departing from Reykjavik on the ring road heading north. As we get closer to Snæfellsnes, we will start to notice a change in the scenery, with everything becoming more dramatic. We will start to pass through enormous lava fields, mountains that seem to rise from the ocean, charming fishing villages and endless bays and beaches. Included is a delicious lunch at one of our favourite local restaurants.

This private tour was previously run as a small group tour but is now only available for private parties of up to 12. If you have a larger group, please reach out directly for advice.

Selvallafoss

Sellvallafoss, overlooking the Sellvallavatn lake, is one of the more hidden spots along the way, despite being so close to the mountain road. It is obscured by the contours of the land, down an unmarked route. The short walk is well worth seeing this uniquely shaped waterfall. It's nickname, the sheep's waterfall is so named due to free-roaming sheep often hiding behind the falls on a summer's day.
