Stops on this tour:

Unlike most Icelandic beaches, Ytri Tunga shines with golden sand — and it’s famous for its playful seal colony.
Catch sight of seals lounging on the rocks or swimming gracefully just offshore.
✓ Djúpalónssandur Black Sand Beach
Step onto a beach of smooth black pebbles, once a bustling fishing hub centuries ago.
Explore the haunting remains of a shipwreck scattered along the shore and try your strength with the ancient lifting stones used by Icelandic fishermen.
✓ Arnarstapi
A postcard-perfect fishing village where dramatic basalt cliffs meet the roaring Atlantic.
Walk among amazing lava formations and meet Bárður Snæfellsás, the legendary half-man, half-troll guardian of the region, standing proudly in stone.
✓ Snæfellsjökull Glacier
A place where earth and magic collide!
The towering Snæfellsjökull volcano, crowned by a shimmering glacier, is said to radiate mystical energies.
Let yourself be inspired by the same landscapes that led Jules Verne to imagine a journey to the center of the Earth.
✓ Ólafsvík
Experience authentic Icelandic life in this charming fishing village, where colorful boats bob gently in the harbor against a backdrop of sweeping mountains.
✓ Stykkishólmur
Known as the capital of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, Stykkishólmur is a beautiful harbor town with colorful old houses, stunning coastal views, and a welcoming vibe.
✓ Kirkjufell Mountain
Behold Iceland’s most photographed mountain!
Kirkjufell’s unique, almost conical shape rises dramatically above the landscape.
With nearby waterfalls flowing in the foreground, it’s a true dream for photographers — and a symbol of Iceland’s wild beauty.
