$90
This is an experience gift voucher. The recipient will book the experience after they redeem the gift voucher.

Overview

On this exciting 1 hour tour around Faxaflói Bay and the islands of Engey, Lundey and Viðey, you’ll have a chance to get up close to colonies of endearing puffins and many other migrating bird species, as well as enjoying the extraordinary backdrop of the majestic Mount Esja and the city’s colourful skyline.
Depending on the time of your visit, the mountains may be capped with ice and snow, or coloured bright purple, covered with a carpet of summer lupins. At any time of the year, Reykjavík is always a stunning city to see from the water. During the summer months, our voyages will pass close to the famous puffin colonies of Faxaflói Bay.

Please note
Since this is a wildlife tour we can never predict or guarantee sightings of any kind. In the event that we don't encounter any puffins, we do not offer refunds, but instead, give our passengers a complimentary ticket to use another day.
