CULTURAL WEST – jeep tour Westfjords
Enjoy the magnificent valleys, giant cliffs and yellow colored beaches of Ketildalir valleys and the beautiful remote valley Selárdalur, on the west side of Arnarfjörður. We visit the extraordinary museum of outdoor works, the Art Museum of Samúel Jónsson, a self educated artist who could finally devote himself to his passion for art when becoming a pensioner. There is a variety of big sculptures, paintings and colorful houses in this remote and isolated place. On our way through the historic, vivid Bíldudalur town, we examine tales of sea monsters at the Sea Monster Museum. Tálknafjörður is renowned for the small tidy fishing village, geothermal water, rich birdlife and white sandbank. We explore both sides of the fjord including Europe's western most grove, the ruins of Suðureyri's whaling station and rest our legs in the local natural hot spring pool Pollurinn.
Local guidance in English, jeep transportation and entrance to the Sea Monster Museum.
