About Tour
Reykjanes GeoPark Sightseeing Tour
Nestled within the UNESCO Global Geopark, Reykjanes is a hidden gem that showcases geothermal energy, seismic activity, and tectonic movements. While it often goes unnoticed by many tourists arriving in Iceland, it’s a breathtaking destination that deserves exploration.
Our tour begins with a visit to the stunning Kleifarvatn and Grænavatn lakes. These picturesque spots are perfect for photographers and anyone looking to soak in the natural beauty. Rumor has it that mysterious creatures lurk beneath their surfaces!
Next, prepare to be captivated by the vibrant, multicolored hills of Krýsuvík before heading north to Keflavík for a lunch break (lunch not included in the price).
Our journey continues as we walk across the Bridge Between Continents, where you can literally stand between two lands—what a thrilling experience!
