An Amazing Experience! - We had such a good time snorkeling in Silfra! Dory was an excellent guide - kind, patient, and helpful. She accommodated my wife in a drysuit and myself in a wetsuit, and she helped me get the hang of a little freediving in the fissure. The snorkeling is amazing, and visibility in the water is spectacular. We were pretty cold by the end, but it was 100% worth it. Super cool!

Magical Silfra Snorkeling Experience – Unforgettable Adventure with Amazing Guide! - Absolutely incredible experience! I went with my son on a beautiful sunny day, and the Silfra Wetsuit Snorkeling tour was unforgettable. We parked in Lot 5 and walked down to the second lot to meet our guide—though I initially missed that detail and arrived a bit late. Thankfully, Dory, our guide, was incredibly kind and welcoming, quickly getting us geared up and into the water without any stress. The crystal-clear waters of Silfra are unlike anything I’ve ever seen, and the free photos are such a great bonus to remember it all by. Highly recommend this tour—it was the highlight of our trip!

Great experience, would do again. - This was one of the most surreal experiences I've ever had. Our guide, Doris, was very thorough, experienced, and funny. She ensured us the full experience while making it as self-guided as possible. Would recommend 11/10

Amazing Silfra Snorkel Experience with Ed - This tour with Edgar was AWESOME!!! Everything from suiting up, to swimming through some of the clearest water in the world within the tectonic plates, the photos from our guide, and our guide Ed himself! He was so so accommodating and nice and even gave us hot chocolate at the end of the experience to warm up! Pretty chilly before going in the water but 100% worth it once inside and would recommend this experience to anyone! Thank you Ed and Adventure Vikings, you’re the best!!!

Snorkeling in Silfra: The Coolest Thing You’ll Ever Do (Literally) - If you’ve ever wanted to experience life as a popsicle while floating between tectonic plates, Silfra in Iceland is your spot! We signed up for this adventure on a whim, thinking, “How cold could it really be?” Answer: Bloody cold (but only your face). Don’t let that scare you — this was hands-down one of the most incredible experiences of our lives. First off, the water is so clear that you can see all the way to the bottom. The colors of the rocks, moss, and the endless shades of blue are unreal. Now, let’s talk about Wilmar, our guide and human life jacket. With a mix of sharp humor, endless energy, and a genuine passion for Silfra, Wilmar turned a freezing experience into a hilarious adventure. He walked us through every step, from squeezing into dry suits to keeping us calm in the water by cracking jokes. As for the cold? Sure, your lips might go numb, and you’ll start to question your life choices when you first stick your face in the water, but trust me, it’s worth it. Wilmar’s quick wit and encouraging nature made sure everyone stayed positive — even when we resembled awkward seals flopping into the water. 10/10 would freeze again.
