This combo tour offers the ultimate way to experience Iceland’s natural beauty, combining a thrilling whale watching adventure with a magical Northern Lights cruise—all in one unforgettable day. Begin with a 3-hour whale watching tour departing from Reykjavík’s Old Harbour at 09:00, 13:00, or 17:00 (based on seasonal availability). Guided by a professional marine biologist or naturalist, you'll learn about the diverse marine life of Faxaflói Bay. Sightings may include humpback whales, minke whales, white-beaked dolphins, and harbour porpoises, along with a wide variety of seabirds. The snow-capped mountains and low winter sun provide a dramatic backdrop, making this wildlife encounter even more spectacular.

After the whale watching, enjoy some free time to explore Reykjavík’s charming city center and have dinner at a local restaurant. In the evening, return to the harbor to board your second boat tour—a Northern Lights Cruise departing at either 21:00 or 22:00 depending on the season. This 2-hour sailing takes you away from the city lights for optimal aurora viewing conditions in the peaceful waters of southern Faxaflói Bay. Surrounded by stars and sea, you’ll watch the sky for a glimpse of the elusive auroras in one of the most serene settings imaginable. The tour is operated based on weather conditions to give you the best possible chance of witnessing the Northern Lights.
