Travel and Nature

There are plenty of possibilities all year round. Several companies offer a variety of  tours, both on a scheduled basis and upon request for a party of people. To explore the availability, check on Daytours and Excursions on our website.

Nature is obviously a big part of the Icelandic experience - but it´s by no means the only part.  Reykjavík is one of the liveliest, safest, most sophisticated and modern cities there is, and its nightlife and cultural activities have earned it an exciting reputation. Other towns such as Akureyri in the north are worth visiting in their right too.  For those who want to see both city and nature, the wilds begin just outside urban communities and a wide range of sightseeing tours are on offer from most of them.
 

There are several ways to reach the Blue Lagoon:

1) Driving on your own, e.g. if you are renting a car. 30 minutes from Reykjavik.
2) Take a scheduled coach from the BSÍ Terminal. 40 minutes from Reykjavik.
3) Join in on special Blue Lagoon Tours, offered by several suppliers.
