Ultimate Whale Watching Tours: Tourists taking pictures of the Puffins from the RIB boat
I can’t believe how close we got to the puffins, and how many they were! Fantastic experience!
Join this premium puffin tour from Reykjavík and maximise your chances of seeing puffins in the wild!
On this guided tour, you will be traveling aboard a custom-made rigid-inflatable boat (RIB). Choosing a RIB boat means that you get as close as possible to the islands of Faxaflói Bay, where puffins come to breed in the summer.
While watching the clownish birds, your guide offers insight into their behavior, as well as those of the other resident seabirds, such as auks and gannets.
Summer is the best time to experience the birds and wildlife of the bay and islands just outside Reykjavík City. Puffins, auks, gannets and an incredible variety of other sea birds dominate the skies and sea cliffs just a few minutes sailing from the Old Harbour.
RIB boat experience
Leaving from the Old Harbour in Reykjavík, this is the ultimate puffin adventure tour operated on our RIB speedboats.
Each boat can only seat 12 passengers, so this is a personal tour where you travel with a small group.
RIB boat are specially designed to get you as close as possible to the islands. When possible, we switch the engines completely off to give the birds (and you) some peace and quiet to enjoy nature.
During the tour your guide and captain will tell you interesting facts and tales about the puffins and the surroundings.
On this up close & personal tour you have plenty of time to ask your guide any question you have about the charismatic puffins and the other Icelandic sea birds.
Our RIBs are also the fastest boats in the harbour, meaning that on a short tour you will spend the majority of you time with the birds.
