Reykjanes Peninsula & Blue Lagoon Tour – Ultimate Layover Experience in Iceland

Start your Iceland adventure with an unforgettable journey that reveals the raw, untamed beauty of the land of fire and ice. As you step off your plane at KEF Airport, a world of bubbling geothermal springs, thunderous coastlines carved by centuries of relentless ocean waves, and volcanic wonders waiting to be explored suddenly opens before you. In just a few hours, you’ll traverse a landscape shaped by fiery eruptions and icy currents, culminating in a soothing soak in Iceland’s legendary Blue Lagoon — a rare chance to connect with the primal forces that define this extraordinary island.

ARRIVAL

Your layover journey begins with a convenient pickup directly from Keflavík International Airport (KEF). You will be greeted in the arrivals hall by your friendly driver and guide, who will ensure a smooth and personalized start to your tour.

BRIDGE BETWEEN CONTINENTS

Your first stop is the famous Bridge Between Continents, where you stand on the dividing plate boundary between North America and Eurasia. Walk across this unique geological site and touch both continents — a rare experience on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge that rises above sea level.

REYKJANES LIGHTHOUSE

Next, visit the historic Reykjanes Lighthouse, built after the original in 1878, perched atop rugged sea cliffs formed by lava flows from the 1800s. Marvel at the powerful Atlantic Ocean crashing against the cliffs and witness the continuous erosion shaping this dramatic coastline.

GUNNUHVER

A short drive brings you to Gunnuhver Hot Springs, Iceland’s largest geothermal area. Observe bubbling mud pools and fumaroles, and learn the legend of Gunnuhver — a haunted site rich in geothermal activity that was once used by settlers for warmth and cooking.

BRIMKETILL

Visit Brimketill, a natural lava erosion pool along the coast where the fierce Atlantic waves crash against the rocks. If you’re lucky, you might spot seals swimming through kelp or enjoy the spectacular scenery of lava meeting the ocean in a dramatic display of Iceland’s raw power.

After an exciting morning we will stop for lunch at the lava restaurant at the Blue Lagoon where you will have a chance to choose between a variety of Icelandic local dishes ranging from local soups, sandwiches to local fish meals. Lunch is also the only thing on the tour that is not included in the price.

BLUE LAGOON

Conclude your tour with a visit to the world-famous Blue Lagoon. Hidden amidst otherworldly lava fields, soak in its warm, mineral-rich waters, renowned for skin rejuvenation. Surrounded by Iceland’s stunning black lava landscape, relax and unwind while enjoying the breathtaking views. Don’t forget to indulge in a silica mud mask to leave feeling refreshed and revitalized.

During checkout, you can choose from three options for your Blue Lagoon spa experience: Comfort, Premium, and Signature. Each package offers unique amenities and experiences designed to enhance your visit.
