Reykjanes Peninsula Private Day Tour with Pick-Up
The Reykjanes peninsula tour begins in Reykjavík or at the Keflavik airport. Our very first stop will be Kleifarvatn lake, the largest lake on the peninsula. Our second stop is the geothermal springs of Krýsuvík, located on the middle of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. The fishing town of Grindavík is our next stop. Brimketill lava rock pool is next up, a little pool right on the edge of land. Next is Gunnuhver, hot spring with a boiling water and mud pools. Close by is the Reykjanes lighthouse, Iceland’s very first lighthouse, built in 1878 but destroyed by an earthquake eight years later. Right by the tower are Valahnúkar and Valahnúkamöl which are unique cliffs and rocks made out of some of the oldest lava on the peninsula. The next stop is where the European and the North American plates meet and form the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Sandvík, a beautiful beach with almost entirely black sands, is our next stop. The one and only Blue Lagoon will be our final destination.

(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Kleifarvatn Lake
After picking you up from your accommodation in approximately 35 min. drive, our very first stop will be Kleifarvatn, the largest lake on the peninsula. Its southern part is warm from hot springs running into the lake but is otherwise very cold. It's a perfect place for photographing because of its volcanic surroundings and bright blue water.
Krysuvik
After short 10 min drive our second stop will be the geothermal springs of Krýsuvík, located on the middle of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Dramatically coloured hills create a beautiful view over the volcanic vents and boiling hot springs.
Grindavik
After spending time at Krysuvík we will be driving for 25 min to our next stop, the fishing town of Grindavík. The town is somewhat isolated in a small inlet on the very southwestern most corner of the peninsula.
