About this experience

We’ll drive through quaint fishing villages of the northern part of the peninsula where you’ll see one of Iceland’s most picturesque mountains, Kirkjufell and one of Iceland's most photographed waterfall, Kirkjufellsfoss. We’ll then enter the Snæfellsjökull National Park, named after the glacier-capped Snæfellsjökull Volcano which towers over the area. The 700,000 year old volcano, now covered by a glacier plays a pivotal role in Jules Verne's classic Sci-Fi novel the Journey to the Center of the Earth as the location of lava tubes reaching all the way to the earth's core. Jules's groundbreaking novel has inspired a number of films and TV shows you might want to see if you can find before visting the area yourself.

The Snæfellsnes National Park is covered by fields of lava that have flowed down the slopes of the volcano creating a truly unique landscape of moss covered lava fields, black pebble beaches, coastal cliffs and other-worldy wonders. Said to be one of the seven great energy centres of the earth, the glacier has been attributed various mystical powers and many who visit claim to experience an amazing connection to Mother Earth and her powers while others feel the presence of elves and trolls all around them. Regardless of any spiritual or magical connections all agree that the Snæfellsnes Peninsula is beautiful and and awe-inspiring. 

You simply cannot go wrong with a visit to the Snæfellsnes Peninsula and while it's a long tour it's one well worth doing. You'll be taken good care of by your private guide who will not only regale you with stories but also you're warm and watered in between stops. All our private tours include light snacks and drinks for guests. 

Our private tours offer flexibility and freedom to veer off the beaten track, change the itinerary due to weather and/or cater to everyone's culinary interests.

Cancellation for this tour

If the weather cancels this tour

Iceland's weather is real. What usually stops this one is a forecast the operator judges unsafe. Here is exactly what happens to your booking.

  1. 1Pink Iceland decides, and tells us. Operators cancel when it is unsafe or pointless, and we back that call every time — we do not ask them to run anyway.
  2. 2We contact you by email, and by phone if your tour is the same or next day. You choose: another date if there is one you can make, or a full refund. There is no fee and nothing to argue.
  3. 3The refund goes back to the card you paid with, through Stripe, usually visible within a few working days. If this tour was one of several in your booking, the others are untouched.

What you do not get is the day back. If this is the only free day in your plan, put a spare day next to it — the planner leaves days free with the rest-day option. And if you want out because the forecast looks bad, that is your own cancellation: free until 3 days before departure, the operator's policy after that.

Questions on the day: [email protected] · +354 497 1373. How cancellations work in Iceland →

Who this is not for

  • Not for last-minute planners — free cancellation ends 3 days before, longer than most tours here.
  • Priced per vehicle, so it is poor value for one or two people and good value for four or more sharing.

Read off the operator's own conditions. If none of it applies to you, this is a good one.

    Iceland is our favorite country and has been for several years. When it came time to decide on a wedding location, we knew it would be there. We came across Pink Iceland and immediately loved their company culture and inclusivity; this is so important nowadays. We contacted them immediately and were connected with our planner, Heiðrún. Heiðrún built out a masterplan that we could plan and communicate with. We had several virtual meetings leading up to the events. She was excellent at capturing our vision and making it a reality. On the first day, Pink Iceland had a guide take us to Blue Lagoon, with a hilarious and informative explanation of Iceland on the way there. That evening, we were greeted at the docks in Reykjavik for a yacht ride, followed by dinner at Kopar. We were recommended and setup at Exeter Hotel which accommodated our wedding morning by reserving a private space. After hair and makeup, we were greeted by Sara from Pink Iceland and Kristin Maria for first look photos. We were then transported around the Aurora Basecamp, outside of Reykjavik, to take our amazing wedding photos. We were recommended Kristin Maria by Pink Iceland and we also recommend her to anyone else! After photos, we were taken to Aurora Basecamp where our guests were shuttled in and the ceremony began. The decor and arrangements of the domes were perfect and better than we imagined. It was an awesome night with our 50 guests, food, drinks, and dancing. Long months of planning plus professional expertise made Pink Iceland a great choice. You won't be disappointed.

    When we found the perfect venue in Iceland to get married in, we knew we would need help with everything. We came across Pink Iceland and knew they would be the right people. Valdi was our planner and he was amazing. He met with us and set up a master plan. We set a date and then due to life issues we had to postpone. Once we were ready, we were able to jump right back in. Valdi went above and beyond to make our wedding day magical. He really took care of everything and the day was perfect. All of his suggestions made for a beautiful and stress free wedding day, plus we had so much fun with him! I would recommend Valdi and Pink Iceland for anyone who is looking for a fabulous wedding.

    We had the most perfect wedding thanks to Pink Iceland. We knew from the start we wanted a destination wedding, and when we saw the reviews for Pink Iceland we thought it was too good to be true. Turns out, they truly are the best!! We are so happy that we choose this team to plan and execute our wedding adventure. We started planning in early 2024 for our June 2025 wedding and were connected with Sara. Sara was amazing from start to finish and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. We live on the east coast of the US and even with the time difference we were able to communicate efficiently and effectively. Sara was reliable and honest and we were able to trust her with our vision and our plan. You can tell that she as well as the rest of the team loves what they do. We knew that when we asked our guests to come from the US to Iceland we wanted to make their trip easy, fun, and stress free. Pink Iceland made sure that not only we were taken care of, but our guests were as well. For our wedding we brought 70 guests to the south coast of Iceland and all of the details were thought of and taken care of. Some of our guests all said that this was the best wedding they had ever been to and many of them praised the Pink Iceland team. We were also connected with Haukur who helped us to arrange our travel plans before and after our wedding, and who organized activities for our guests before our wedding adventure. Haukur helped us to arrange these plans in a stress free, clear and organized way. Both Haukur and Sara were so flexible through the whole process and we appreciated their willingness to communicate directly with our guests for special arrangements. Sara arranged tours for all of our guests before and after the wedding as a way of transportation to our accommodations. We had personalized tours from Guðni and Árni and all of our guests were amazed at how awesome the tours were thanks to them. I highly recommend if you have a larger group to do these tours - everyone enjoyed learning about Iceland and stopping at some of the best spots with these guides. Overall, hire Pink Iceland! We couldn't recommend them more. They truly think of everything and we had the best wedding ever thanks to Sara, Haukur, Guðni, Árni and the rest of the Pink Iceland team! We were able to thoroughly enjoy our wedding thanks to them. 10000000000000 stars!

    We can’t say enough wonderful things about Pink Iceland and our planner, Gloéy. They helped us plan the most magical wedding week imaginable — truly beyond anything we could have dreamed of. From the very beginning, Gloéy made us feel completely supported, cared for, and understood. Their attention to detail, calm presence, and kind energy set the tone for the entire experience. Our wedding day (and week!) ran so smoothly thanks to them, even with the inevitable last-minute adjustments that come with getting married in Iceland. They handled everything with such grace and professionalism that we never had to worry — we were free to just be present and soak it all in. Gloéy worked seamlessly with our photographers, videographer, and officiant to create a day that felt effortless, natural, and uniquely us. We loved them so much that they even joined us and our officiant on a glacier hike the day after the wedding — the perfect, joy-filled ending to an unforgettable week. We can’t wait to return to Iceland and meet up with the wonderful people we met along this journey, as we now consider them our friends! If you’re considering getting married in Iceland, do yourself the biggest favor and work with Pink Iceland. They made our wedding experience unforgettable, and we’ll be forever grateful for the love, care, and magic they poured into it. — Anna & John Michael
