Activity options vary depending on destination and operator. Activity level is determined by the range and intensity of activities you choose to participate in. Discuss with your Trip Planner which options are best for you.
Use your leisure time in Reykjavik to discover the unique charm of the world’s northernmost capital. The MS Seaventure docks in Old Reykjavik Harbor in the heart of the city, a five-minute stroll from the main squares, shopping, and dining. The ship departs in the evening.
The area is often referred to as “Iceland in miniature”, because of its diversity of landscapes. Breidafjordur Bay, for instance, is known for its fascinating bird life, unique basalt formations, and breathtaking panorama.
Today‘s destination is Isafjordur, an idyllic town in the Westfjords region. This secluded peninsula is connected to the Icelandic mainland by only a narrow strip of land and includes many roadless areas where cars have never been. The landscape includes jaw-dropping views of dramatic fjords carved by ancient glaciers, sheer table mountains that plunge into the sea, and pristine North Atlantic vegetation.
By morning, you may reach the fjord town of Siglufjordur, once the hub of the global herring industry and now enjoying a rebirth in popularity. Learn about the golden age of herring at the award-winning Herring Era Museum located on the vibrant harborfront. In the early afternoon, head to Flatey. It’s a natural haven for birdlife and home to the arctic tern and puffins, which can be observed at close quarters. During dinner, you may steam further into Skjalfandi Bay and visit Husavik.
Husavik is often called the "Whale Watching Capital" of Iceland; the town’s offshore waters are home to 15 different whale species, as well as dolphins and 30 varieties of birds. Watching these graceful ocean giants in their Arctic habitat is an unforgettable experience.
Iceland’s East Fjords are best explored from the impossibly picturesque port of Seydisfjordur, nestled between the sea and steep mountains. Activities include hiking, horseback riding and exploring the natural beauties of the East.
The fishing village of Djupivogur is today’s starting point to explore the Berufjordur fjord by kayak (optional). Go on a four-wheel-drive Jeep tour (optional) or take a boat trip in the Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon (optional). Icebergs of all shapes and sizes are floating in the water—an unforgettable adventure.
Located off Iceland’s South Coast, the Westman Islands were formed by submarine volcanic eruptions around 10,000 years ago. Go ashore on Heimaey, the only inhabited island, where half-buried houses remain from a violent 1973 eruption.

This was my first experience with Adventure Life - and I couldn't have been more pleased with the trip. The guides and local staff in both Buenos Aires and Uruguay were terrific - extremely helpful and accommodating. I really enjoyed meeting the friendly staff in Buenos Aires in person (I left my bags with them for the afternoon).
Kassandra is knowledgeable, efficient and very pleasant to work with.
