This tour comes in two options: ATV ride and the Blue Lagoon and ATV ride and the Blue Lagoon with airport transfer .
The tours are identical, except the latter comes with a transfer to Keflavik Airport at tour’s end.
ATV Ride and the Blue Lagoon:
You will be picked up in an air-conditioned coach from your hotel or guesthouse in Reykjavik. You will be accompanied by an English-speaking guide.
Drive out of the capital to the Reykjanes Peninsula , where the mid-Atlantic ridge rises from the ocean. More than half of the peninsula is covered with lava flows, some of which are only a few hundred years old.
Once there, you will be provided with an ATV (all-terrain vehicle), along with overalls, gloves and a helmet.
Set out on a 1-hour ride across this stirring Icelandic landscape, where you’ll see lava cones and craters of all shapes and sizes, which bespeak the mercurial volcanic activity of the area. Your rugged ATV is perfectly suited for this exacting landscape, and allows you to bump along without the slightest discomfort.
Close out your tour with a transfer to the reviving waters of the Blue Lagoon. The lagoon is a unique geothermal spa situated in the youngest lava field in west Iceland. Once there you are treated to an afternoon of perfect serenity walk through the enchanted lava fields that surround the lagoon, bathe in the steamy blue-green waters, relax in a geothermal steam bath or release the stress from your shoulders under a soothing waterfall.
Your time at the Blue Lagoon is at leisure. We do not include the bathing fee in the tour price as many people choose to simply wander and take in the beauty of the area or have a meal at the restaurant. If you wish to bathe you may pay the fee locally.
Four different departure times back to Reykjavik let you stay at the Blue Lagoon for as long as you please. Your tour ends where it began.
ATV Ride and the Blue Lagoon with Airport Transfer:
This tour mirrors the one above, but concludes with a drop-off at the Keflavik Airport in Reykjavik. Three different departure times from the Blue Lagoon provide maximum flexibility.
