Private Whale and puffin tour from Akureyri
This private tour brings us to the charming village of Húsavík where you'll get the chance to go whale watching on a RIB boat.
With the speedboats we can offer you more area to cover in search for the gentle giants. A RIB is faster than the wind and therefore, makes it more likely to find the big whales. Nothing is guaranteed but on this tour, your chances to encounter some of the world’s biggest animals ever increase – big time!
This tour also includes a visit to the Puffin Island, where you can experience thousands of puffins during the nesting period (May 1st – August 20th).
There is nothing that beats the smell of the sea on a sunny day at Skjálfandi bay.
This tour includes comfortable private transportation, a complimentary pickup service, and an English-speaking guide to enhance your experience
The tour on RIB speedboats is not allowed for passengers with heart- or back problems or pregnant women. The minimum age limit for children on the RIB speedboats is 7 years or minimum 130 cm in height.
