This magnificent combo tour unites whale watching and northern lights, some of the most popular winter attractions in Iceland!<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n You start the day with a 3 hr whale watching<\/strong> tour at 13:00<\/strong>, with departure from the Old Harbour in Reykjav\u00edk. <\/p>\n The most common species seen in Faxafl\u00f3i bay in winter are the minke whales<\/strong>, dolphins<\/strong>, porpoises<\/strong> and humpback whales<\/strong>. The views and landscape on the horizon are not to be missed as they are astonishing in the winter glow! After having explored the wonderful seabirds and marine life of the bay, you return to shore in time to walk around the city centre and have a cosy dinner before it is time to join us at the harbour again for an amazing night at sea!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The approximately 2 hr northern lights evening cruise<\/strong> departs at 21:00 \/ 22:00<\/strong> (depending on the season). Please keep in mind that if you select pickup for this combo, you will be collected at your hotel or bus stop nearest to your hotel for the whale watching tour and are only returned after the northern lights cruise.<\/p>\n For your safety and enjoyment, both tours are weather dependent.<\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=”3393,3496,236707,236708″ fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ background_layout=”dark” pagination_font_size_tablet=”51″ pagination_line_height_tablet=”2″ use_border_color=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_code admin_label=”Code” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ global_colors_info=”{}”]Whale watching<\/h3>\n

The tour will take you into the Southern part of Faxafl\u00f3i bay, away from the bright city lights<\/strong>. Heading out into the open bay under the vast starry sky is a wonderful experience, and certainly not to be missed as a part of your Iceland holiday.
We know that you don’t have many days to chase the lights, so we want to maximise your chances by always running the tour<\/strong>, no matter if the forecast is in our favour or not.
In our experience, the weather changes very quickly and a fully clouded sky can clear up within minutes. If the lights fail to appear, we offer a free ticket to try again the next day!<\/p>\n
