About this experience
A private day on the Reykjanes Peninsula, just for your group, that fits neatly into your arrival or departure day. Your driver-guide meets you at Keflavík Airport, a Keflavík hotel or your Reykjavik accommodation with a VAREN name tablet and helps with your luggage, which stays safely in the vehicle.
See Garðskagaviti lighthouse and the stone church at Hvalsnes, then walk across the Bridge Between Continents. On the wild south-west coast visit Reykjanesviti lighthouse and the cliffs of Valahnúkamöl, look out to Eldey and its gannet colony, feel the steam at Gunnuhver and watch the Atlantic surge into Brimketill.
Your guide shares stories and practical tips along the way. Water on request.
Choose a private sedan for 1-3 travellers or a private van for up to 8. One price per vehicle, not per person.
