Lake Mývatn

Join us for a magical afternoon and evening as we tour highlights of North Iceland. Starting from Akureyri, we take in the splendor of Goðafoss Waterfall, the waterfall of the Gods. Soon after, we arrive at Lake Myvatn, a volcanic, geothermal wonderland that straddles the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates. Here, we soak in the hot springs and nature baths, explore the Skútustaðir pseudo-craters, the Dimmuborgir lava fields, and the colorful Mt. Námafjall with its boiling hot pots and steam vents. Next, we indulge in a three-course meal at Vogafjós, located inside a cowshed and offering delicious, homemade local food. On the way home, we search for the brilliant Northern Lights that so often illuminate the night sky. Available as both a group or private tour.
