Discover the beauty of Hvalfjörður (Whale Fjord) on a half-day private excursion that blends Iceland’s natural landscapes with the thrill of a drive in a modified Ford Focus RS. Designed for those who prefer a shorter, more exclusive journey, this experience emphasizes the art of the drive as much as the destinations. With winding coastal roads, dramatic fjord views, and relaxation at the Hvammsvík Geothermal Baths, this tour offers a refined balance of performance and tranquility.

The Experience

Unlike full-day tours, this half-day journey is about quality over quantity. The route through Hvalfjörður is one of the most scenic drives near Reykjavík—offering quiet roads, panoramic fjord views, and a sense of seclusion. Behind the wheel, your chauffeur showcases the Spirit’s stability, agility, and performance on the fjord’s sweeping curves and long stretches, delivering a drive that is smooth, controlled, and memorable.

The Car – Spirit

This private excursion is enhanced by the character of the vehicle itself. The modified Ford Focus RS is more than just transportation—it’s an integral part of the experience. Its turbocharged power, precise all-wheel drive system, and sport-tuned suspension are perfectly matched to the fjord’s winding coastal roads, creating a journey that is as engaging as it is scenic. Inside, a premium, driver-focused interior ensures your comfort throughout.

Note: Spirit has four bookable seats, though it is best suited for three adults and one smaller individual or child, given the car’s compact performance layout.
