Snaefellsnes Day Tour
 "The Journey to the Center of the Earth"

Words cannot express the mystery, wonder and almost surreal energy of the Snæfellsnes peninsula! The major landmark is the Snæfellsjökull glacier which is renowned for its mystical powers and has captured the imagination of people all over the world, ever since Jules Verne wrote “The Journey to the Centre of the Earth” in 1871.

The area features extraordinary moorlands, meadows, marshlands, rivers, streams and small ponds along with beautiful rock formations and black sand beaches.

Snaefellsnes Peninsula is with out any doubt one of the best places in Iceland for Nature- and Wildlifewatching during summertime. In this tour we can expect to see great variety of bird species and among them species such as Harlequin Ducks, Puffins, Brünnich's Guillemots and White-tailed Eagles.
