More about the Tour

Our specially trained, highly qualified whale watching guides will take you on a 2,5 – 3,5 hour tour to Eyjafjordur – the longest fjord in Iceland. They will provide you with information about wildlife, nature, environmental issues, history and the fjord area while taking pictures that you will be able to receive after the tour.

We operate our tours on 3 big boats – specially modified, dedicated for safe whale-watching encounters in Iceland. Our biggest boat is the only high-speed, specially modified, whale watching ship in Iceland. Capable of carrying 200 passengers with spectacular views from our “cinema styled” viewing platforms and its speed guarantees sustainable whale watching tours, wherever the animals might be located in the fjord.

With ample indoor and outdoor seating, a bar, and a cafeteria, you can be sure that the ride is comfortable and pleasant, even on challenging weather days.

Please make sure to arrive at our ticket office by Oddeyrarbót pier at least 15 minutes before your scheduled departure to check in and receive your boarding pass.The boat is docked right next to the office, making boarding quick and easy.

Icelandic weather can change rapidly, so we recommend dressing in warm, layered clothing – even on sunny days – as it can be chilly out at sea. Complimentary overalls are available on board to help keep you comfortable throughout the tour.

We follow a strict code of conduct for responsible whale watching to ensure a respectful and safe encounter with the wildlife. Our guides will provide safety instructions at the start of the tour, so please listen carefully and don’t hesitate to ask questions during the journey.

What to bring :
Dress warmly for our northern fjord, so if you have it, bring warm outdoor clothing like a wool or fleece sweater, some warm headgear and gloves. Flat bottom shoes are recommended.
