Whale Watching including Gullfoss and Geysir Express Tour from Reykjavik

Reykjavik, Iceland

For a full-day experience with a difference, go on a whale watching boat trip in the morning then spend the afternoon touring Gullfoss, Geysir and other Icelandic natural phenomena. It's a nature-lover's dream, and the best way to make the most of your visit to Reykjavik.

Following your morning of whale watching, your day's activities continue with the Gullfoss and Geysir Express half-day tour, to see Iceland's best known historical sites and natural phenomena. The tour begins with a visit to Thingvellir, a geologically unique place where the American and Eurasian tectonic plates meet. The Icelandic parliament Alpingi was established here in 930, and in 2004 Thingvellir was added to UNESCO's World Heritage List.

You will also see the majestic and beautiful waterfall Gullfoss, the incredible spouting hot springs of Geysir and Strokkur. After a visit to the village of Hveragerdi, with its large greenhouses cultivating all manner of fruit, vegetables and flowers, the tour returns to the capital.

The whale watching was brilliant and a must when you go to Iceland. There is never a guarantee of seeing them but we saw a whole family of Orca whales. A dream come true. The Gulfoss and Geysir Tour was lovely too although I wish we had had more time at all the stops to take it in more. However, for a full day, could not have asked for a more enjoyable day!

Very professional, excellent logistics, no delays, very good guidance and explanations. Fantastic scenery and country and very nice people. Even the bad weather - bad for us, non-Icelanders - was much easier to stand with such well organized excursion.

Yes, I absolutely loved my experience with the exception that we did not see any whale but rather dolphins.

After an initial problem of the bus coming to collect us 50 minutes early we had a great trip. We saw Minke whales, a Humpack, harbour porpoises and lots of sea birds on the boat trip. Well worth it, especially if you haven't had the opportunity to see them before. The Golden Circle Express tour was both interesting and informative with lots of stop off points to take pictures. I would recommend this trip.

We went whale watching in April. I think we were lucky with the weather, as the water was very flat and it was sunny and due to this we saw lots of dolphins, porpoises and minke whales; they just surrounded the boat and we were able to take lots of photos. The trip lasted over two hours. I recommend wearing warm clothing and a hat, but you can use the warm jumpsuits that they provide on the boat to wear over your clothes. Refreshments are provided on the boat. We had to wait around for about forty five minutes to be picked up for the golden circle trip after getting off the boat. No one really told us what we had to do or who would pick us up, so we had to ask at the ticket office. I enjoyed the golden circle tour, but wish we had had longer to stay at the drop off points.
