About this experience

Unwind in East Iceland’s Natural Wonders – A Perfect Shore Excursion

Stepping off your cruise in Seyðisfjörður, you’ll be greeted by your friendly local guide for a rejuvenating half-day tour that perfectly balances scenic beauty and relaxation.

We begin with a breathtaking mountain drive offering sweeping views of fjords and valleys as we make our way to Gufufoss, one of East Iceland’s most photogenic waterfalls. This peaceful cascade, often called a mini Skógafoss, is a serene spot that many cruise passengers never get to see.

Next, we journey to the acclaimed Vök Baths on Lake Urriðavatn—an otherworldly geothermal spa featuring floating infinity pools nestled in the still waters of the lake. Soak in mineral-rich waters while gazing out across the untouched wilderness. You'll also enjoy complimentary herbal tea brewed from lake-filtered water, and can explore the bathhouse’s café and facilities.

    We had a great time on our Iceland Folklore tour. Our guide was Einar. He was a fantastic storyteller!! Hidden people/elves, trolls and ghost stories - and a lot of Icelandic history. Thank you Einar!!

    Petra was an incredible guide. We asked her to show us as much as she could before taking our crazy family of 10 to the airport for our flights to three different cities ! First stop was the beautiful church in downtown Reykjavik that had just opened with an organ recital. Next stop a lovely spot and observation sight overlooking the city by the Pearl. Cold and wet she found us a lovely coffee shop with the best pastries for a welcome mid morning rest next to the sea. Back in the van we drove for a bit before having the opportunity to explore a geothermal field on our way to the airport. A perfect day and ending to our time in Iceland. Petra shared alot of history and information from the perspective of a local which we all appreciated and enjoyed!

    Nice walking trip in Reykjavik city centre with our local guide Hrafn, very friendly and knowledgeable. A good introduction to Iceland on the very first day of our 2 weeks road-trip around the island 👍
