The most photographed mountain in Iceland. Also one of the highligts in Snæfellsnes peninsula. Kirkjufell or the Church mountain got even more famous when showed in Game of Thrones - under the name Arrowhead Mountain. Our stop is by the waterfall - fantastic photostop towards the Kirkjufell mountain as well as to the sister mountain with the old bridge in the front. Such a magistic place.

Snaefellsjokull National Park & Glacier
Jules Verne made Snæfellsjökull glacier famous with his novel “Journey to the Center of the Earth”. On this daytour we are driving around the glacier, seeing him from different locations.
Ytri Tunga Beach
One of very few places to spot seals in West Iceland and by far the best one. It is difficult to say if the seals here at Ytri Tunga are more curious or the people watching them. On a sunny day they can bee seen laying on the rocks relaxing and enjoying the sun and on a windy day more oftern swimming so close to the beach that you feel youy can almost reach out and pat them on the head.
