Reykjanesskagi, otherwise known as the Reykjanes Peninsula, is made up of a variety of geological sites that earned it the creation of a vast geopark recognised by UNESCO in 2015. This is an exceptional site where lakes, lava fields, geothermal zones, rock formations and many other amazing landscapes await you, so taking a trip to the Reykjanes Geopark from Reykjavík is an experience not to be missed!

In a minibus for up to 19 people, you will set off on a tour of the Reykjanes peninsula, stopping off at most of its key sites: the Kleifarvatn and Grænavatn lakes, the Krýsuvík geothermal area, the Brimketill lava rock pool, the Gunnuhver geothermal area, the Reykjanesvíti lighthouse viewpoint, and finally the bridge between 2 continents, Bruín Milli Heimsálfa. Accompanied by a guide who will explain the history and special features of these extraordinary places, you will have made plenty of enriching discoveries by the end of this excursion to the Reykjanes peninsula!
