Description

Explore the geothermal wonders of Iceland on a guided tour from Reykjavik. Visit the active volcanic zone of Krýsuvík, see the largest mud geyser in Iceland, and walk across the bridge between continents. Then, relax in the Blue Lagoon. Journey through lava fields, covered in gray-green moss, to the active volcanic zone of Krýsuvík. Here, near Lake Kleifarvatn, see hot mud springs burst to the surface, merging into a thermal river. Explore the cosmic landscapes of Krýsuvík, strolling along special wooden walkways and capturing photos of this beautiful yet perilous terrain. In Gunnuhver, located in the heart of the Reykjanes Global Geopark, encounter Iceland's largest mud geyser and hear the legend of an evil spirit trapped here by a priest. Observe streams of boiling clay shooting several meters from the ground from a safe distance, as their temperature reaches 300 degrees Celsius. From the element of fire, transition to the element of water. Visit Brimketill, an incredibly picturesque natural pool carved by the Atlantic waves into soft lava rock. According to legend, this place was chosen by Icelandic trolls for bathing. Swimming in Brimketill is dangerous due to the ocean surf, but the photos are outstanding. Head to the beach to visit a monument to the disappeared bird—the white-winged gull. On the coastal cliffs in summer, see noisy colonies of northern fulmars nesting, and sometimes, if you're lucky, spot the backs of whales swimming not far from the shore. Arrive at the Reykjanes Peninsula, find yourself at the boundary of two colossal lithospheric plates and be able to stroll from Europe to North America in just a few minutes. Appreciate the power of the local landscapes, learn how Iceland's shape changes every year due to plate divergence, and walk across the bridge built over the earth's crustal fault, symbolizing the connection between continents. Finally, relax and unwind in the soothing waters of the Blue Lagoon, which are believed to have therapeutic properties for the skin and body. The spa offers a range of amenities, including silica mud masks, saunas, steam rooms, and in-water massage services. Enjoy the tranquil setting amidst the rugged Icelandic landscape, providing a unique and unforgettable experience.
