Reykjavík Sea Horse

The Sea Horse Combo is a full-day adventure blending horseback riding through Iceland's scenic countryside with whale watching in Faxaflói Bay. Your day begins with a morning pickup in Reykjavík, followed by a drive to the picturesque geothermal town of Hveragerði, where Eldhestar's professional guides welcome you at their horse farm. After gearing up with safety equipment and warm clothing, you'll set off on a 1.5–2 hour ride aboard a friendly Icelandic horse. Depending on the weather, you may cross the Varmá River, traverse lava fields, and ride through lush meadows, surrounded by the unique volcanic landscape. After your ride, enjoy a light lunch at the farm before heading back to Reykjavík for the second part of your tour.

In the afternoon, join Elding for an unforgettable whale watching cruise from Reykjavík’s Old Harbour. Setting sail into the rich waters of Faxaflói Bay, you’ll search for various marine life, including minke whales, humpback whales, white-beaked dolphins, and harbour porpoises. With expert guides and on-board commentary, you’ll gain fascinating insight into the local ecosystem. The vessel offers indoor seating, restrooms, a café with light refreshments, and warm overalls or blankets for added comfort. This combo tour offers a memorable taste of both Icelandic nature and wildlife, but as always, is subject to weather conditions—so be sure to dress warmly and wear sturdy shoes.
