Overview

Iceland is famous for its impressive volcanic landscapes, but you must leave Reykjavik to see them, which is hard without a rental car. This half-day tour includes hotel pickup and takes you out of the city on a tour of the Reykjanes Peninsula to show you how volcanic activity has shaped the region. See craters, lava fields, hot springs, and where the 2023 eruptions happened right outside the town of Grindavík.

Lava fields, volcano and amazing views

Jason_S, Jul 2026

Fantastic tour, even with changing weather. Amazing to see Grindavík, lava fields, thermal mud pools ( if stinky). A reasonable bit of walking, so do recommend proper hiking shoes/boots. Our tour guide was Bruno, who went over and above

Knowledgeable tour guide...

Joseph_K, Mar 2026

Knowledgeable tour guide and safe driver. Guide warned us about impending weather and adjusted our tour accordingly. Visit to Grindavik was eerie!

Convenient hotel pick-up...

We went on a volcano tour...

Lauren_P, Aug 2025

We went on a volcano tour with Frederick who kept us entertained with stories about past eruptions, local folklore and history. Unfortunately the volcano stopped erupting during our tour, but each site was spectacular. Bring water, sturdy shoes, and rain gear as Icelandic weather is unpredictable.

Not impressed

Gabe_E, Jul 2025

This trip was mediocre at best. Might have been because the weather was quite rainy and the sites we visited didn’t visit well in the rain. The driver was very quiet and didn’t interact much with us.
