About this experience
Diese deutschsprachige Kleingruppentour führt vom Hafen in Akureyri zum Wasserfall Goðafoss und zum vulkanisch geprägten See Mývatn.
Die Tour führt zu Beginn entlang des Fjordes mit Blick auf die Stadt Akureyri über den Bergpass Vikurskarð zum schönen Wasserfall Góðafoss.
Von dort führt die Fahrt weiter über zwei Hochebenen bis zum See Mývatn, bei dem wir mehrere Stopps einlegen. Sie werden Pseudokrater, bizarre Lavaformationen, kochende Schlammquellen, Krater und die aus der Serie Games of Thrones bekannte mit warmen Wasser gefüllte Höhle Gjrotagjá erleben.
Die Dauer der Tour liegt bei ca. 8 Stunden; die Abfahrtszeiten sind auf die Liegezeiten der Kreuzfahrtschiffe angepasst.

Why this one and not the cheaper one?
The nearest cheaper Mývatn, Goðafoss & Grjótagjá Half Day Tour From Akureyri from Arctic Adventures is €125 — €67 less. Here is every difference we can actually measure.
| SPS Travel · €192 | Arctic Adventures · €125 | |
|---|---|---|
| How long it runs | 8 hours | 6 hours |
| Getting there | Picks you up | You make your own way |
| Changing your mind | Not stated | Free until 24 h before |
The €67 buys you 2 more hours out and hotel pickup. Whether that is worth it is your call — but that is what the difference is.
Sold out on your date?
Seats come back — a cancellation, or the operator adding a vehicle. Tell us the date and we will check once a day and email you if one opens. One email, then we delete the address; nothing else is ever sent to it.
Who this is not for
- Not for late risers on your first morning — the earliest departure is 07:00, and Reykjavík pickups start before that.
Read off the operator's own conditions. If none of it applies to you, this is a good one.

We were a group of 8 friends who stayed here in Selfoss. It was one of the highlights of our vacation to Iceland. We found his place absolutely lovely and in an amazing location. Extremely clean, everything looked like it was new, and the place was fully equipped and beautifully furnished with pretty much everything we needed. During the days, we were driving around the southern part of the country, the Golden Circle route and then further out all the way to Vik. We experienced the extremely volatile weather conditions in Iceland firsthand -- snowstorms, sunshine, clouds, rain and gale force winds. At night we mostly spent our time chilling out in the house, playing games, talking, having nice dinners and of course -- relaxing in the magnificent hot tub! The northern lights were a bit elusive but everything else made up for it. Waking up in the morning and looking out the large windows was a truly spectacular experience. There's a large mountain situated right across, and even a volcano further in the distance. We visited in winter and the endless carpets of fresh, untouched snow and the nature surrounding us was quite magical. I must mention that even before we arrived on the days leading up to our trip, Sven was very helpful and swift with all the communication. He arranged car rentals for us, gave us some tips on getting around and driving in Iceland. All the information we required about the house was neatly documented. To everyone else reading, we highly highly recommend staying here if you plan to visit southern Iceland!
