The highlight is the majestic Dynjandi waterfall — considered by many to be Iceland’s most beautiful. Hidden deep in the fjords, it’s a true natural wonder rarely seen by visitors. This small-group tour offers a rare chance to discover the raw, authentic side of Iceland — far from the crowds and full of culture, history, and unforgettable views.

The destination largely depends on the weather and sea conditions. Remember to bring a camera, binocular is also very good for looking at the seals (if we go close to the islands) when the tide is low as they sit sunbathing on the rocks. Dress warm.

What are people saying about Isafjordur

Mary_A, Jun 2026

Best waterfall tour!

We booked with Jake, owner of Valkyrie tours and it was hands down the best tour we have ever done. Small group of 18 and such personalized service! Wonderful! (communication initially was bad, but he made that up, and more with our excursion!) He took us to see sea birds and seals on our way to the waterfall. The ride back included a small town that was beautiful. Don't book with anyone else!

Amazing waterfall

Great tour - the waterfall is awesome and the walk up is spectacular although tricky in parts so take care. But the views wherever you stand are superb. The views on the journey there are pretty breathtaking and the 9km tunnel you go through was an amazing feat of engineering.

Fun day is Isafjordur!

Thomas was a very knowledgeable and very funny! He kept us entertained during the driving parts with his humour and stories and he even sang (very well I might add) a song for us is Icelandic. The cake at the farm was delicious and the horses were brought out for us to pet. The falls were beautiful.

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!
