What you'll see and do
Our first destination is around two hours drive away, along the west coast and under Hvalfjördur Bay. You can get a preview of the tour's wild and wooly Berserkjahraun lava field from a high vantage point. The beautiful and gloomy Berserkjahraun was built approximately 4000 years ago by thick black lava from neighboring volcano craters. The lava is mentioned in one Icelandic saga as how the Norwegian Berserks are ultimately vanquished.

Kirkjufell Mountain
As we reach the fishing village of Grundarfjörur, the solitary and beautiful summit of Mt. Kirkjufell becomes increasingly difficult to ignore (Church Mountain). The name makes sense when you consider that it towers over the city on a ridge of verdant hills. The mountain overshadowed the Snaefellsjökull glacier in fame thanks to its appearance in the popular Netflix series Game of Thrones.
35 minutes here
Kirkjufellsfoss
The nearby waterfall, which is connected with the mountain's summit, is peaceful and beautiful. Snaefellsjökull glacial streams provide the water for the waterfall. A hiking track leads guests on an exploration of the area, where they can take photographs of the breathtaking autumn foliage against the backdrop of Mt. Kirkjufell. As a result of its stunning appearance, Kirkjufellsfoss has become a popular spot for photographers from all over the world.

Djupalonssandur Beach
Black Lava Pearl Beach is a common name for the coastline in Djpalónssandur. This bay was once home to a fishing community; its lava cliffs and black basalt pebbels and sand provide for a dramatic backdrop. The four antique lifting stones, intended to test the strength of fisherman, are fascinating relics from the days gone by. The rusty remnants of an English trawler that ran aground on the beach in 1948 serve to preserve history while also providing a stunning visual contrast.
35 minutes here
Londrangar Basalt Cliffs
We will next proceed to the Lóndrangar basalt cliffs. What you see now, in the form of cliffs and ruined pinnacles, is all that's left of a volcano that the ocean devoured mercilessly over a long period of time. The cliffs are popular with birdwatchers because seabirds use them as nesting grounds. Snaefellsjökull glacier is visible in stunning clarity on a clear day, and if you're lucky, you might even spot some elves.
35 minutes here
Arnarstapi
The last stop is a quaint little fishing community with a harbor for small boats and a breathtaking coastline. The community of Arnarstapi, which takes its name from the beautiful mountain that towers over it, is situated close to Snaefellsjökull. Arnarstapi is a charming village that offers lovely strolls from the harbor and along the stunning shoreline all the way up to a striking monument honoring the region's defender, Bárur Snfellsáss. When walking along the coast, it's easy to feel empowered by nature's forces, including the energy of the volcano, the ocean, and the rough beauty of the various coastal features seen while walking. Only a few examples include petrified elephants, basalt columns, blowholes, and seabirds. And so our snæfellsnes peninsula tour of Iceland ends here.

The weather prevented us...
The weather prevented us from seeing some of the sites, so our tour guide did her best to rearrange things to maximize the experience. It would have enhanced the experience to learn more about the area on the car rides and hikes.

Loved our vacation planned by Arctic Adventures
I was thrilled with the service and holiday package I booked. Thank you, I will definitely use you again. Thank you for arranging an amazing trip. The whole trip went very smoothly and we all had our best holiday ever. The trek was the highlight and we had the best guides and the staff at all the lodges were great. The trip could not have been better. 'You know, I have planned many trips before with various travel agents and I must say you are truly one of the best agent/agency I have had the pleasure to interact with. We thank you very much for all your work and dedication to make this trip happen!

It’s easily the best day...
It’s easily the best day of our Iceland trip. Our guide Sam made every effort and more to overcome difficulties along the journey and it really felt more like having a travelling companion along the way instead of a cold tour guide who’s just doing a job. Easily five stars.

Wonderful day
This coast is very different from the southern coast, but equally as beautiful. Our tour guide made sure we saw everything that the coast had to offer including the volcano that was filmed in Game of Thrones. Our guide was very friendly, knowledgeable and interactive. It’s a long day that shouldn’t be missed.

Long drive but it got us...

Why this scores 60
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Snæfellsnes Peninsula day tour with 6+ Attractions: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reykjavik.
How much does Private Snæfellsnes Peninsula day tour with 6+ Attractions cost?
+
Prices start at $1249 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Reykjavik usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Snæfellsnes Peninsula day tour with 6+ Attractions take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Reykjavik is not rushed.
Is Private Snæfellsnes Peninsula day tour with 6+ Attractions worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Reykjavik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Snæfellsnes Peninsula day tour with 6+ Attractions?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Snæfellsnes Peninsula day tour with 6+ Attractions suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Snæfellsnes Peninsula day tour with 6+ Attractions?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Reykjavik can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Reykjavik and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Snæfellsnes Peninsula day tour with 6+ Attractions start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Reykjavik within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Reykjavik?
+
On Outty we rank every Reykjavik experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Reykjavik Food Walk - Local Foodie Adventure in Iceland, Small-Group Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon with Ticket & Kerid Crater, Reykjavík Small group Walking Tour - by CityWalk. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Reykjavik?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Reykjavik?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
