Itinerary
Borgarnes
A welcoming gateway to West Iceland
Pause in a historic seaside town beside Borgarfjörður, where colourful rooftops, mountain views and stories from Iceland’s settlement era set the tone before the peninsula grows wilder.
Ytri Tunga
Golden sand and a resident seal colony
Visit a rare golden-sand beach where harbour and grey seals often rest on seaweed-covered rocks. Wildlife sightings remain natural, while the sweeping coast is beautiful in every season.
Arnarstapi
Sea arches, basalt cliffs and Atlantic drama
Walk through a historic fishing hamlet to a coastline sculpted into columns, caves and natural bridges. Waves, seabirds and views towards Snæfellsjökull give the stop extraordinary energy.
Djúpalónssandur
Black pebbles and seafaring history
Descend through twisted lava to a polished black-pebble cove beneath Snæfellsjökull. Rusted shipwreck remains and traditional lifting stones connect the spectacular shore to generations of local fishermen.
Local horse farm
Home-cooked Icelandic hospitality
Sit down for the included home-cooked meal in a warm countryside setting. Local flavours and personal hospitality make this stop a memorable cultural counterpoint to the wild peninsula.
Kirkjufell & Kirkjufellsfoss
Iceland’s most recognisable mountain composition
Frame the elegant cone of Kirkjufell above the small cascades of Kirkjufellsfoss. Mountain, water and open sky combine in one of Iceland’s most rewarding and unmistakable photographic scenes.
Return to Reykjavík
A final sweep across West Iceland
Relax on the journey back after a full day of glacier-volcano views, fishing villages, dramatic beaches, wildlife possibilities and the spectacular Atlantic coast.
