Your Itinerary

Day 1: Arrival in Iceland
Once you have landed at Keflavik Airport in Iceland, please pick up your luggage and take the FlyBus Plus airport shuttle transfer to Hotel Island. Remember to let the FlyBus representative on the bus know what hotel you are using for drop-off.

The rest of the day is open for your own activities.  We suggest a walk in the Old Town area with galleries, museums, restaurants and pubs.  A visit to one of the city´s geothermal swimming pools is a great way to shake off jetlag and a very Icelandic activity.  It is also a great way to meet Icelanders.  
Day 2: Whale Watching Tour
Enjoy a delicious breakfast buffet at your hotel then set out and explore the city around you before return to your hotel by noon for your whale watching tour.

The boats are designed with whale watching in mind. The friendly guides, along with the captain and crew, point out where you can spot the whales. They will also provide interesting information about the different kinds of whales and seabirds you can expect to see. Whales and dolphins often spotted include minke whales, humpback whales, harbour porpoises and white-beaked dolphins. The tours have a special interactive and educational focus so people can discover more about the ocean wildlife.

Included: Guided Whale watching boat tour, one way transfer from hotel to tour start point.

Not Included: Transfer from Whale Watching Boat tour back to hotel (hotel is within walking distance, cabs plentiful). Departures: Pick up at 8:00am from your hotel. Please be in the lobby.

Duration: 3 – 3.5 hours

Important: Please dress well for cold weather, as it gets cold at sea. Dress in layers and wear gloves, cap, and scarf and good, wind and waterproof outerwear. Please also wear good outdoor footwear.

Please note: This tour is subject to weather conditions, and whale sightings cannot be guaranteed. If you do not see whales during the trip, or if the tour is cancelled due to unfavourable weather conditions, you will be given a free ticket for the next day‘s tour.

Day 3: The Golden Circle and Fontana Wellness
This amazing day tour takes you around the Golden Circle to see three of Iceland’s highlights Gullfoss waterfall, Geysir geothermal area and Thingvellir National Park, before heading to Fontana’s natural steam baths. 

The original sauna was built in the 1920s and was little more than a shack with two compartments, built above the hot spring that bubbles and gurgles below the ground. Today, a modern complex welcomes you to relax with various hot tubs and steam baths naturally heated by Icelandic hot springs. Before returning to Reykjavik, you will be offered some typical Icelandic rye bread which is slow-baked in the natural hot springs.

Day 4 (or 5 if extra night added): Departure
Breakfast at your hotel, afterwards Flybus will prick you up and take you to Keflavik airport for your flight home.  Please be prepared to depart your hotel about 3 hours before your flight.

Important: Whale sightings are based on natural and weather conditions. There is no guarantee of sightings.
