Day Trip Hike in the Nature Reserve Hornstrandir

Due to the harshness of the environment, the Hornstrandir area was abandoned completely by the last of its inhabitants in the early 1950s. Since 1974 the flora and fauna have been protected and now arctic foxes, birds, seals, and plants have thrived undisturbed. This is the perfect full-day hike to enjoy all of what the area has to offer. You´ll leave by boat from Ísafjörður in the morning for Aðalvík. Continuing on foot to the abandoned settlement at Hesteyri. Once we reach Hesteyri warm drinks and pancakes will await us at the Doctors House Café. We will return from Hesteyri in the late afternoon and be back to Ísafjörður. This is a moderate hike for people in good shape. Hiking distance is about 11 km on rough ground and elevation is about 300 m.

What are people saying about Isafjordur

Ian_M, Aug 2026

Great Tour of Dynjandi and West Fjords!

I booked this tour with my girlfriend during our stay in Ísafjörður, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip to Iceland. Gummi was an outstanding guide. He was born and raised in Ísafjörður, so his knowledge of the area, its history, and local culture added to the experience. His expertise driving the Super Jeep on the rugged roads made us feel safe while still being on an exciting adventure. Dynjandi was great. It was a busy day with lots of tourists, but Gummi timed our visit so we got there ahead of most of the crowds on the hike up, which made a big difference. We also stopped at Hrafnseyri, where we were lucky enough to watch whales while enjoying a coffee. That was such an unexpected bonus! The real highlight, though, was the drive to the top of Sandafell. The views were breathtaking and it felt like we were standing at the edge of the world. The Super Jeep gives you access to parts of the Westfjords that most visitors never get to experience because the large coach buses aren’t equipped for those roads. Another thing we appreciated was the small group. With a maximum of 12 people, the tour feels personal, unlike the crowded buses carrying 40 to 50 passengers. Gummi shared local stories throughout the day, had a great sense of humor, and made everyone feel welcome If you’re visiting Ísafjörður, we can’t recommend this tour enough. It’s worth every penny and offers an experience you can’t get on a standard bus tour.

3,5-Hour Sightseeing Tour To Dynjandi Waterfall

Jack_P, Aug 2026

Waterfall

Beautiful waterfall! The climb to get close to the waterfall was treacherous. Steep trail with uneven stones to walk on. No handrails. I would not recommend the climb unless you’re fit with no balance issues. Our guide, Annalise, was terrific! She was very knowledgeable and gave us a wonderful overview of Iceland.

Fun experience!

The tour guide was his first day guiding in 15ish years. He was a hoot! He knew the area so well and his stories along the way were great. The scenery was beautiful and the entire experience was well worth it. The tunnel we went through was scary to me, but was very safe. Definitely recommend.

LauryL_D, Aug 2026

Great day

Fun way to see Iceland. We traveled through a 7 km tunnel—amazing engineering. The waterfall was lovely ( though crowded). I loved seeing how the fishermen dressed and lived 100+ years ago. And the drive to the overlook at the top of the mountain was amazing. The walkway extended over the chasm with great views.

Dynjandi Waterfall & Westfjords Farm Tour from Ísafjörður

Juli_K, Aug 2026

Astonishing Guide who MADE this tour!

WOW! JUST WOW! While the farm and waterfall were lovely, We have literally been on thousands of tours in over 120 countries, and have never experienced a better guide than Tomas! He is clever, informative and real, has a phenomenal working knowledge and understanding of history, culture, arts and geological and life science, as these apply to his homeland Iceland, and the their relationship to the rest of the world, and a magical way of conveying this information in a fun way, which makes one want to lean in and listen carefully. His conversational and hysterically funny way of storytelling, while being both the guide and driver is astonishing. Having just been on a couple other similar tours with both a driver and guide, Tomas deserves 10x their pay, based on the value he has provided to all his guests! We can’t recommend anyone more highly and if I were booking this tour, I would specifically ask to be on his bus, you will not regret it!

Amazing small group tour!

Very much enjoyed the small group over the large bus tours. The late afternoon was nice as most of the bigger tours were leaving when we arrived. Plenty of time to walk up to the falls. Enjoy the secret tour to see the small towns. Simon our guide was very thorough and provided lots of interesting facts.

Westfjords Whale Watching

Keisha_H, Jul 2026

A Heartwarming Whale Experience

Wonderful! Yes, we saw whales, and it was also a sacred and moving experience. The guide's love and knowledge of whales was contagious. It was beautiful to experience the whales through his eyes. He also let us hold baleen and see whale tail pictures to help us identify which ones we were seeing. Delightful experience! (We went in July)

You need to understand...

You need to understand stand how the app works and to make sure your settings on your iPhone are set properly before beginning the tour. My partner and I had different settings so it was confusing at first as we were not in sync. The audio tour was great. - we really enjoyed it and have recommended the app to several other people
