Join us for an amazing evening yacht cruise on the Amelia Rose to celebrate the New Year and say ‘bon voyage’ to 2023. The yacht leaves the harbor at 10:30 PM (22:30) and returns approximately half an hour after midnight.
The view from the sea gives you the chance of seeing the world-famous fireworks over the city and the surrounding towns. If the skies are clear you might be able to catch the Northern lights too. Receive a complimentary glass of Champagne as of midnight approaches and, as the clock hits 12, raise a toast to the New Year.
Three panoramic decks will ensure that you will get the best view possible of the fireworks, the coastline and if the skies are clear hopefully catch the Northern lights too.
What's Included

1Old Harbour
The ship sets sails from Reykjavík’s Old Harbour and during your journey, you’ll sail among the small islands in the Faxaflói Bay, as well as along the coast of Reykjavík, providing you with a fantastic view of the city as you search for the wildlife in the water. The most common sights are minke and humpback whales, dolphins, and porpoises. However, there is always a chance to spot a few orcas (also known as killer whales) as well as a wealth of other species. The professional team onboard is very experienced in spotting whales and is dedicated to making sure their passengers leave with a smile!
