Highlighted reviews from other travelers
Saw a humpback multiple times (maybe 40 yards at closest). Nice boat. Wish we had learned a little more about the whales and maybe stayed a little longer to see the humpback more.
Beautiful weather and lovely yacht . Blessed with sightings if 3 Orcas. Amazing.

Know before you go
- Wear warm clothes and good footwear
- The best time for whale watching in Iceland is during the summer months (from April until September)
- The tour is dependent on weather conditions, the captain will make the decision on whether to sail, always keeping in mind passengers' safety and comfort
- The tour length varies, the whales may be close to the harbor or far out to sea so the tour length can be between 2.5-hours to 3.5-hours
- The tour takes place in wild nature, so sightings can’t be predicted or guaranteed. If there are no sightings, we don’t provide refunds but offer a free return ticket (valid for up to three years, subject to availability).
