Chase Iceland’s northern lights from Reykjavik with local guides, hotel pickup, hot chocolate, pastries, and professional photos.

“They have dishonest business practices. I provided the dates that I would be available to the tour provider and they agreed to service those dates. I showed up and asked them to service the dates that they agreed upon and told me they refused to because it was on a holiday and then told me there would be an extra fee and that they wouldn’t service that date anyway. They told me this long after the cancellation. Period closed so they robbed me of the opportunity to cancel and go with another tour provider. I also asked for a partial refund and they were extremely condescending refused to accept responsibility,…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 1,155 reviews · 3 hours · from $140

Snorkel between tectonic plates at Silfra in Iceland, with crystal-clear water, small groups, drysuits, photos, and hot chocolate.

“It was an incredible experience! It was surreal. Very bazar going snorkelling between two tectonic plates and in December haha. But it was very cool. We did the dry suit option. I’d just suggest to wear two pairs of socks. If you are doing this in the Winter, the waiting around before getting into the water isn’t easy. My feet were in so much pain beforehand but once you’re in, it’s a lot warmer! But definitely do this if you can!”

Snorkel Silfra’s crystal-clear glacial water between tectonic plates with a small group, drysuit, photos, hot chocolate, and Reykjavik pickup.

“I would 100% do this tour again. Dori was a rockstar. Extremely safety focused, and diligent to ensure we all had a good time. It was FREEZING the day we went. I thought I had enough layers, but for the sake of your toes, wear an extra layer of socks. Their dry suits are toasty, but given it was snowing and the water was just above freezing, you’ll thank yourself later.”

Review of Iceland’s Golden Circle and Silfra snorkeling tour from Reykjavík, with drysuit gear, photos, small groups, and practical tips.

“Incredible experience. Snorkeling in Silfra is once in a lifetime type of stuff. Out of this world. The rest of the Golden Circle tour was also beautiful. The guides were excellent - friendly and informative. You have to be adventurous to do the snorkeling, it's not for the faint of heart, but so worth it! The dry suit keeps you warm and dry.”

Snorkel Silfra in Thingvellir National Park between two tectonic plates with dry suits, underwater photos, cocoa, and a small group.

“All I wanted besides the experience itself was individual pics so I asked our tour guide if that is something he does. He clearly said yes. We did not get many pics even ones we were certain he took. We had six people in our group and no one needed attention or was struggling so from the reviews I was certain we should get some pics. All other groups today received individual pics. At the end our tour guide told us we all looked the same so just take them from another group. Super disappointed! So if you want good pics that you paid for (or any of yourself) then…”

“Our guide Kobe was the best!! We went on another Northern light trip 2 days before which was horrible, we didn't see anything. Decided to book this one as it was recommended by another tourist. Kobe knew exactly what he was doing, took us to places where there was no other tour and we saw the Northern light with red, orange, green. We were so happy and glad we spent the additional money to see it again as we only came to Iceland to see the northern lights. I will be recommending Kobe and this tour to everyone.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 379 reviews · 5 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $211

Snorkel Silfra from Reykjavík between two tectonic plates, with a PADI divemaster, dry suit, photos, hot chocolate, and transfers.

“This trip was poorly organised from the very start when the pick up bus arrived late. I few points should be made clear before booking this experience like bringing thin under layers which will act as a base under the dry suit. Also there are hight restrictions which were not clear at all when a booked. The dry suits are massive so anyone under 5ft will struggle to find a dry suit that fits them properly. My dry suit was massive so i did struggle with the snorkelling when i finally entered the water after lots of waiting around. The instructor Fede was helpful at first but after a while…”
