Pass By:
Our day tour will begin with our fast and efficient pick-up service. We will come to pick you up from either, one of the hotels in the center of Reykjavik or from one of the many pick-up spots dotted across the city. When pick-up is completed then we will leave the city and begin our journey.
Pass By: Reykjanes Peninsula
You'll depart the city and head to the Reykjanes Peninsula's volcanic scenery. The Mid-Atlantic Rift, which separates the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, stretches along the Reykjanes Peninsula. Despite being sandwiched between two tectonic plates, there haven't been any volcanic eruptions there in at least 800 years. All of that changed, though, in March 2021, when the Fagradalsfjall volcano erupted. A stunning display of red-hot lava fountains during the 6-month-long eruption attracted hundreds of tourists to the area.

The first stop on your journey will be Geldingdadalur, the area where the same volcano erupted for most of 2021. You'll be able to view some of the planet's most recent lava, which is black and twisted and can still be scalding hot to the touch.
