Would you like to discover the wildlife that occupies the sea around Reykjavik? If so, then, this is the tour for you!

You'll spend three hours at sea with an expert crew and specially trained naturalists as you search for whales, dolphins and other wildlife. Minke and humpback whales, white-beaked dolphins and harbour porpoises are some of the most frequently seen species and if you're lucky, you might even see killer whales, fin whales and sei whales. They're easiest to spot in the summer which gives us the chance to see them in their natural habitat while they're feeding near the shore but research shows that more and more are staying in the area all year round. One of the other highlights of this tour is the opportunity to see the incredible landscapes and views of the bay. It'll make your experience even more special!

Easy to find, well presented, good sized boat with cafe and bar. Plenty of time in the bay and saw several whales. Guide was informative, experienced, and clearly dedicated to whale preservation. A little disgusted that the harbour berths the two resident whale hunting ships rights next to the whale watching tours!

The trip was very good. We got to see both humpback and Minke whales plus puffins and other seabirds which is what we were hoping for. The boat was nice and spacious so we got a good view of the whales. The weather was also good with a calm sea so no sea sickness!

We were lucky to see many breaching humpback whales as well as minkes dolphins and porpoises . Guide helpful and knowledgeable. We were obviously aware that there would be no guarantee to have any sightings but we were very fortunate to see so much on a gloriously sunny day .

Amazing trip, the kids really enjoyed it. The staff were nice and friendly. We managed to see minkies, dolphins and humpback whales. Definitely recommend.

Overall a very good experience, the downside was that we didn’t see any whales or dolphins- but understand that is not innTUIs control
