Departing from the Old Harbour in Reykjavík, this is the fastest and most convenient way to see puffins and embark on the ultimate puffin adventure! The tour is available during the puffins' breeding season, typically from late April to mid-August.

Summer is the ideal time to witness the vibrant birdlife of the bay and islands just outside Reykjavík. Puffins, auks, gannets, and a stunning variety of other seabirds fill the skies and cling to the sea cliffs just minutes from the Old Harbour, right in the heart of the city.

What makes this tour truly special is the use of our custom-made RIB boats, designed to bring you as close as possible to the islands. Whenever possible, we turn off the engines completely, allowing you and the birds to experience the tranquility of nature. Throughout the tour, your guide and captain will share fascinating facts and stories about the puffins and the beautiful surroundings.

  • 1 hour expertly guided puffin watching tour on a RIB boat.
  • Small Group – only 12 passengers with expert guide & captain.
  • High quality suspension seats for extra safety and comfort.
  • Panoramic views of Reykjavík.
  • We supply warm overalls, goggles and all necessary safety equipment.

Arrive at our ticket office at the Old Harbour in Reykjavík at least 30 minutes prior to departure. Check in and sign the required safety waiver. You’ll be provided with warm overalls, goggles, and all necessary safety equipment.

Please dress according to weather and remember to bring a hat, gloves and sturdy footwear. You will be required to wear our thermal overalls (available up to size 3XL), as well as a life vest for the duration of the tour.

You are welcome to bring your sunglasses, phone or camera on board, but do so at your own risk. Bags are not permitted on the RIB boat, so ensure that whatever you bring with you fits around your neck or in your pocket! You can store your belongings in our office while you are on the tour.

Please arrive at the Whale Safari ticket office at least 20 min. prior to depature.
