Full description
This is a private driving tour to Hvalfjordur and Hvammsvik Hot Springs with an expert guide from Your Friend in Reykjavik.
On our way from Reykjavik, we visit a waterfall and an elf stone before we head to the brilliant Hvammsvik Hot Springs, which is a beautiful experience where you have access to eight natural hot springs that evolve into the ocean with temperatures ranging from ocean temperatures to 42°C in the old original hot spring. You can even access the sea, steam baths, and hot outdoor showers to warm you up if you are brave enough to brave the ocean. This experience was recently voted the world's number one thing to do by Timeout magazine!
After your rejuvenation soaks in the hot springs, it's time to head to the restaurant to enjoy a nice bowl of delicious seafood soup made of fish from the fjord and local ingredients (there is also a vegan option). With the seafood soup, you get fluffy sourdough bread and butter with sea salt, also made on location.

Excellent! Our guide was wonderful and kept the pace appropriate for my husband who has mobility issues. Although we didn’t see many cats, we learned a lot of interesting things about the city.
