About the Stopover Iceland Tour
Explore the Reykjanes Peninsula with it’s spectacular landscape of moss-covered lava fields, dramatic dormant volcanoes and colourful, spouting and smelly geothermal areas. The tour ends with a 2 hour bathe in the Blue Lagoon.
The stop-over tour begins at Keflavik intl. airport around 7:30 am. Our first stop is for a refreshing breakfast (of your own choice, cost not incl. in price) to have a good start before the upcoming day and explore the Reykjanes peninsula.
After breakfast, the tour takes you around the spectacular landscape of moss-covered lava fields, dramatic dormant volcanoes and colourful, spouting and smelly geothermal areas.
Reykjanes peninsula has an amazing landscape
The Reykjanes peninsula is a highly active volcanic and geothermal zone with at least 200 different lava flows and volcanic activity that reaches from the Reykjanes ridge southwest of Iceland up Hengill mountain at Thingvallavatn Lake.
On the tour, you will see many different types of lava fields, the last flow was in 1240. You can see the difference when it erupts under ice or open air. On the tour, there are many photo stops and a bit of outdoor activities to keep you awake. You will see racks of dried fish or “stockfish”, have a look into a “shark shack” where the famous “Hákarl” fermented shark is produced and taste Hákarl and Brennivín, the Icelandic schnapp.
You can have about 2 hours to bathe in the Blue Lagoon spa before you go back to the airport in time for your departure.
Payment
You can pay as you meet the guide with a credit card, Icelandic krona, Euros or US dollars.

Thor is the Best
I toured Iceland twice with Thor ! Every time he was considerate, on time. He is a great driver on snow and ice. We trusted him with our lives! He knows Iceland history and regaled us with stories. He cares about the people and his country. Those blue eyes and that smile welcomed us. He even woke upon at 4 am to take me to the airport! That is genuine kindness and commitment! Best tours with lots of places to discover. Thanks a million! You are the best!!
Amazing South Coast private tour
My husband and I did a private South Coast tour with Thor, Salty Tours. From the first communication through to dropping us off at our apartment, we had an incredibly positive experience. Any questions before the tour were answered promptly. The tour itself was fantastic. Thor is very knowledgeable, personable and interested in giving his clients the best day possible. He tailored the tour to suit our interests and pace. He timed out stops so we weren’t competing with the larger tour buses and gave us honest tips about each stop, ensuring that we got the best experience possible. Highly recommend Salty Tours!
Once in a lifetime experience
My tour of Iceland in March was perhaps the best travel experience I have ever had. Our tour guide, Thor, did his utmost to make sure we had the best experience possible. We were able to see the northern lights on three nights and he took fabulous photos and beforehand told us a little bit about science behind the northern light. The accommodations were wonderful, the food was excellent, and in out-of-the-way places, the tour arranged for private meals where there weren’t restaurants. It was wonderful to go in March to see the northern lights and to avoid the crowds from the cruise ships.
