Best Value Whale Watching tour from Reykjavik
3 hours and 30 minutes · From Reykjavík

Experience the thrill of our original RIB boat whale watching tour, designed for small groups with a maximum of 12 passengers per boat. Departing daily from the Old Harbour in Reykjavík, this premium adventure runs from April through October. With a specially trained crew and a certified RIB captain, you’ll be in expert hands as you explore the seas and search for wildlife.
Our custom-engineered RIB boats allow you to get closer and faster to the whales and puffins than larger vessels, enhancing your chances of witnessing these incredible animals up close. The stability and safety of these boats also allow us to cover a larger area, further increasing the likelihood of sightings. As you journey back to Reykjavík, enjoy a unique view of the city’s coastline, including landmarks such as the Sun Voyager sculpture and the stunning Harpa Concert Hall.
Please dress according to weather and remember to bring a hat, gloves and sturdy footwear. You will be required to wear our thermal overalls (available up to size 3XL), as well as a life vest for the duration of the tour.
You are welcome to bring your sunglasses, phone or camera on board, but do so at your own risk. Bags are not permitted on the RIB boat, so ensure that whatever you bring with you fits around your neck or in your pocket! You can store your belongings in our office while you are on the tour.
