★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 9,838 reviews · 3 hours · from $87

Review of Reykjavík whale watching in Faxaflói Bay, with wildlife, boat comfort, guide quality, cold-weather tips, prices, and booking advice.

“An amazing morning whale watching - we were lucky enough to see 2 humpback whales and lots of seals! Maria, our guide, was very knowledgeable and friendly. Even when we were looking for (and unfortunately not finding) more animals, she chatted away about the scenery and sea birds. The views themselves, especially at sunrise, make this a lovely thing to do but the whales coming very close to the boat made it exceptional! Also, the hot chocolate is so so good, and very reasonable!”

Review of Iceland’s South Coast tour from Reykjavik, covering waterfalls, glacier views, Reynisfjara, Vík, transport, timing, price, and practical tips.

“Absolutely stunning scenery. Tour guide friendly but inane stories could have been more informative about the sights. Make sure to pack/bring a raincoat for the walk around the waterfall. Cold and wet but we'll worth it. The weather seems to change on a dime so wear layers. We saw rain, sleet, snow and bright shiny warmth all within the first few hours. Might've made the day more pleasant if everyone on the small tour was introduced to eachother. Spending the whole day together- why not”

“I originally booked to go as early in the morning as I could, however due to the snow impacting my plans I changed to a later booking and went at the end of the day. The staff were so helpful with arranging this for me. And I’m so glad I did it this way! I saw the blue lagoon in the daylight with the beautiful creamy blue water, then witnessed sunset and enjoyed time surrounded by the dark, starry night sky as well. As it got later the steam got better and better which was great. I really enjoyed the whole experience! I just wish it had been more obvious…”
