Description

  • Itinerary

The Reykjanes Peninsula, situated in the southwest corner of Iceland, home to both Keflavik International Airport and The Blue Lagoon, offers hidden treasures awaiting exploration.

A private tour unveils its wonders, from the bubbling mud pools of the Seltún geothermal field and Gunnuhver hot spring to the Bridge Between Continents and Lake Kleifarvatn.

Designated a UNESCO Global Geopark, the peninsula's extraterrestrial landscape, shaped by volcanic activity, evokes a sense of otherworldliness. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge emerges here, marking the division between Europe and North America, visible in the lava formations and fissures along the rugged terrain.

Before March 2021, the peninsula had gone over 700 years without eruptions. Remnants of past volcanic activity and recent events are evident, along with geothermal areas and a power plant exploring geothermal energy's potential. The Bridge Between Continents symbolizes the connection between continents, highlighting the peninsula's geological importance.

Optional Extras:

  • Icelandic Rock ‘n’ Roll Museum, Keflavik
  • Inside the Volcano, Volcano Crater Visit.

The largest lake on the Reykjanes peninsula hidden between the mountains not far from the outskirts of Reykjavík known for its natural beauty. Around 8km2 and almost a 100m deep. After a series of earthquakes in 2000 the lake lost almost 20% of its surface and still seems to be losing volume although at a very slow rate. In 2000, as the lake shrunk some curious boxes appeared on the exposed lakebed, their content was later identified as Russian spying equipment dating back to the cold war.

  • We recommend good clothes as well as something to drink and some snack.
