During the summer, the extended daylight hours provide opportunities for long hikes and exploration under the midnight sun, offering an unforgettable experience of Iceland’s northern latitude. The area has a history of human settlement dating back centuries, with remains of old farms and fishing villages that tell stories of a challenging life in an unforgiving environment.

Farm and waterfall

The farm was beautiful but no information was provided about the farm or how it is run. Loved petting the horses and seeing the baby sheep. Food treats were yummy Waterfall was spectacular and the drive was very senic. The driver was very proud of his country and but often offensive to other cultures, especially Norwegian and Americans. He did not need to be so opinionated and maybe the experience less enjoyable.

Westfjords Whale Watching

Heather_S, Jan 2026

A whale of a tale!

What an amazing adventure. We watched as our ship’s tour group boarded a small boat with cramped rows and smiled a bit when our open boat arrived! We were able to board quickly and headed straight to the top deck. We were given blankets for the ride as well. Loved the opportunity to hear an expert in his field explain and talk with passion about the whales. We were so close and felt in the actions as the whales came close to us. On the return we got to see things the tour guide had collected on whales as well as see photos of the whale tails we had experienced seeing. This was amazing

Perfect trip! I would highly recommend booking this experience

Loved our trip out to the falls! Even though the day was rainy and cold, our guide made this experience well worth it. After our visit to the falls, the off-road portion of the trip was very exciting, and the climb ended with a breathtaking 360 view. We loved this trip and will for sure be booking it again in the future!
