Overview

Snaefellsnes National Park tour from Reykjavik - personalized experience in small groups. This fascinating journey is culminating right about the halfway point at the mighty 1 450 meter Snæfellsjökull volcano glacier - Jules Verne made it famous in his novel "Journey to the Center of the Earth''. After crossing the Hvalfjörður through a 6 km underwater tunnel, you will visit small towns and fishing villages, see spectacular bird cliffs by the sea and beaches. In the northern side, we also stop by picturesque church-shaped mountain Kirkjufell which is accompanied by a wonderful little waterfall on the other side of the road. At Djúpalónssandur beach (may not be accessible in winter) we will allow those who feel up to it to try strength with the Stones of Trial. The whole journey of Snæfellsnes peninsula circles around Snæfellsjökull glacier volcano which you can admire from several stops on the tour. Please note: the tour does not go on the glacier itself.

Truly memorable. Excellent day.

Published on Jul, 2024

Excellent service, with a magnificent tour guide, Mr. Guitie made the day phenomenal with some stories about Iceland that were magnificent. Truly memorable.

Amazing trip

Published on Apr, 2024

Booked the trip with GTI because we wanted to see the area without renting a car ourselves and it was so worth it! The bus size was small and cozy which made for a great ride and our tour guide was an absolute joy, you could tell this was someone who loved and appreciated the nature here. The tour covered so many different locations and sights that it was hard to predict what you would see next, we even went to a seal bay where we could walk up to them with only a few meters between us! We would highly recommend this trip if you want to see as much as possible, this area has so many things to see and this is the best way to do it.

True Icelandic experience

Published on Oct, 2023

Wonderful day. Our original plan was canceled but we were placed on a similar tour with East West tours. Our guide Leroy was the best. Shared personal stories of why he migrated to Iceland. Played a game at each spot where we counted in Icelandic. This tour included a homemade lunch at a horse farm. Got a real taste of authentic Icelandic hospitality. Two days later on a different tour spotted Leroy who gave us both a hug. Highly recommend this tour and small group tours in general.

Customer Oriented

Cant say enough good things about Gateway to Iceland. My wife and I booked GTI for a Snaelfellsness NP tour. Their tour didnt get the required no of participants and we had already prepaid. Clare with GTI booked us with an affiliate company so we didnt have to go thru the process of credit and last minute rebook etc, then emailed all the info to me. the new tour was identical but also included lunch as a bonus. Good customer service and much appreciated Clare.

EXCELLENT! We had such a wonderful time touring Snaefellsnes! We ended up with such a small tour group that our guide, Thrond, was able to take us to a few extra stops for pictures - and a stop for the best carrot cake I've ever had (Hótel Snaefellsnes). Thrond was so great!! Very funny, kind, and knowledgeable!
