Step by Step

Discover one of the world's most amazing natural spectacles with this whale watching cruise from Reykjavik. Accompanied by an expert local guide, you'll cruise the North Sea in search of humpback whales, porpoises, dolphins and more creatures that inhabit these icy waters.

Aboard a safe and cold-ready boat, equipped with toilets, free Wi-Fi and floating thermal overalls (also for children), you'll feel like a true polar explorer. As you sail, your guide will explain in detail how these impressive animals live and how to recognise signs of their presence.

The Icelandic coastline is one of the best places in the world to see whales in the wild, and if the weather is good, you may also see puffins fishing, adding an endearing touch to this marine adventure.

The tour departs from Reykjavík harbour, and comfortable clothing and appropriate footwear are recommended. Don't forget to keep your eyes on the sea - the thrill of seeing a whale breaching for the first time will never be forgotten.

    Attentive staff: they lent me gloves because I forgot mine. A nice touch.
