Snæfellsnes Peninsula: Luxury Full-Day Experience
Join us on a curated journey through the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, often called “Iceland in Miniature” for its incredible variety of landscapes. We begin at Ytri Tunga, a golden shoreline known for its resident seals, before visiting Bjarnarfoss, a silver ribbon of water flowing over dramatic basalt cliffs. Continue to the iconic Búðakirkja, the black church set against vast lava fields and glacier views.
In Arnarstapi, enjoy an included lunch with warm Icelandic dishes and ocean views, followed by a gentle guided walk along volcanic sea cliffs and natural stone arches. We then explore the towering basalt peaks of Lóndrangar and the powerful black-pebble beach of Djúpalónssandur.
Next we visit Saxhóll Crater for sweeping views of lava fields and distant Snæfellsjökull Glacier. Your day concludes at the legendary Kirkjufell and its graceful waterfalls, an iconic finale before your relaxed return to Reykjavík.
