The whale watching tour was equally good we saw several whales and dolphins/ porpoise as well as many birds including Puffins, we also got engaged on the boat.</p>

What a fun day! 4-wheeling outside... - <p>What a fun day! 4-wheeling outside, taking in all the views and seeing Reykjavik from the top of a mountain nearby! Our guide, Hinrik, was fun, funny and full of adventure. And the combination of this trip with the whale watching cruise - great day! Hint: the seas are choppy, just take the sea tablet that is offered or your whole trip will be ruined!</p>

Wonderful whale watching cruise! - We had this trip included as part of our Secret Escapes holiday & had a fab time. The crew are very friendly & offer advice re how to walk on the stairs while at sea, offer warm overalls (which cover your clothes) to wear if you are up on deck. We didn’t wear these this but wished we had! They also offer sea sickness pills. I had taken my own a couple of hours before & was glad I did. It was a cold sunny day & the sea was like a mill pond as we left the harbour but did get rather choppy/rocky as we got out further out. A few people were being ill. The cruise lasts for 3 hours & we got to see lots of dolphins & minky whales. There was a marine biologist on board who gave a running commentary the whole trip & told us when/ where she’d spotted the dolphins/ whales. We didn’t get many good photos but if you email Elding they will send you their photos from the trip. It was a very enjoyable afternoon & would recommend this if you are visiting Reykjavík
