This Private Reykjanes Discovery Tour is perfect for those seeking a combination of adventure and relaxation. Begin by exploring an ancient lava tunnel to witness Iceland’s volcanic power. Experience geothermal wonders before ending your day in the serene beauty of the Blue Lagoon. Whether you’re a geology enthusiast, nature lover, or looking to relax, this tour offers an unforgettable experience.
Experience the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation with our Private Reykjanes Discovery Tour. This tour starts with a journey into the depths of Raufarhólshellir, also known as The Lava Tunnel. This remarkable lava tube, stretching over 1,360 meters and formed more than 5,200 years ago, showcases a stunning array of lava formations and colours.
Next, you’ll be transported to the Mars-like landscape of Krýsuvík. This geothermal area is renowned for its steaming vents, boiling mud pots, and vibrant mineral deposits. Walking among the bubbling mud pots and steaming vents, you’ll witness the powerful geothermal forces that shape Iceland’s landscape, offering a glimpse into an otherworldly terrain. Continuing the adventure, you’ll visit the Gunnuhver geyser area, named after a ghost from local folklore. Gunnuhver is Iceland’s largest mud pot, with steam vents that shoot boiling water and steam high into the air, creating a dramatic display of geothermal activity. Nearby, the iconic Reykjanesviti lighthouse stands tall over the rugged coastline, offering breathtaking views and a perfect photo opportunity with its stark white structure against the dramatic sea and sky.
The highlight of the day will undoubtably be a visit to the world-renowned Blue Lagoon. Nestled in a lava field, the Blue Lagoon’s mineral-rich, milky blue waters provide the ultimate relaxation experience. With your premium entry, you’ll enjoy the lagoon’s soothing warm waters, a luxurious silica mud mask, and two complimentary drinks from the swim-up bar. Additionally, you’ll have access to a towel and bathrobe for your comfort. The serene environment of the Blue Lagoon is the perfect way to unwind after a day of exploration, leaving you refreshed and rejuvenated.

Hallo.
We are planning a trip to Iceland Dec 29 2021 to Jan 5 2022. We plan to rent a car. Is it possible to join the hike with the group at the site rather than from Reykjavik? (3 adults)
Hi Tina,
Good question. We don’t offer a meet on location for this tour. This is because it is always difficult to know exactly when we will go to see the volcano. Sometimes we reverse the order in case the weather is better in the morning or in the afternoon and other times we spend longer at other spots. Feel free to email us at info@hiddeniceland.is if you want to learn more. If you are self driving you can achieve the hike yourself (with current conditions) but please check safetravel.is before attempting any hike to such an area.
Thanks
