Reykjavík Whales & Buggy

Combine two thrilling adventures into one action-packed day in Reykjavík with the Buggy Safari and Classic Whale Watching combo. Your day begins with a hotel pickup from 09:00, followed by a scenic drive to Safari Quads’ base camp. After a safety briefing and instructions from experienced guides, you’ll hop into a rugged two-seater buggy and head off-road toward the stunning Úlfarsfell mountain. Whether you’re a first-timer or seasoned driver, the route offers an exciting mix of terrains, giving you a real taste of Icelandic wilderness. At the summit, pause to admire breathtaking panoramic views over Reykjavík, the shimmering ocean, and surrounding peaks before heading back to base.

Following the adrenaline-fueled buggy ride, you’ll be driven back to Reykjavík’s Old Harbour to continue your adventure with Elding’s Classic Whale Watching tour. Before boarding the boat, take a moment to explore the floating wildlife exhibition – an educational display featuring real whale bones, teeth, and fascinating facts about marine life in Icelandic waters. Once aboard, you’ll set out for a 3-hour voyage into Faxaflói Bay, guided by an expert who will help you spot minke whales, humpbacks, dolphins, and seabirds. The serene oceanic setting contrasts beautifully with your earlier mountain adventure, making this full-day combo the perfect blend of high-octane fun and tranquil wildlife exploration.
