Private Jeep Tours - Reykjanes Peninsula & Lava Tunnel - optional Blue Lagoon
Overview
From Reykjavik, we drive to Raufarhólshellir, one of the most significant lava tunnels in Iceland, where a local guide will tell us all about its spectacular colors and rock formations.
After an hour-long tour of the tunnel, we head to the beautiful Reykjanes Peninsula, home of the Reykjanes Geopark, UNESCO site and one of Iceland’s geological gems, a place rich in geothermal energy, seismic activity, and tectonic movements.
We will visit the beautiful lakes Kleifarvatn and Grænavatn, the multi-colored hills on Krýsuvík and the geothermal areas of Seltún and Gunnuhver with their hot spring and mud pools and much more.
We will make a stop at the Blue Lagoon. Here you will have time to walk around and take pictures or enjoy a coffee in the cafe overlooking the blue pool. If you wish, you can take a relaxing bath in the warm lagoon while enjoying a drink or put some silica mask over your body. (Entrance tickets are not included in the tour price and must be purchased in advance)

My mom and I visited Iceland for a week and had a couple of trips booked through Iceland Premium Tours. Our driver was none other than Örvar! The first trip he took us on was the 3-hour tour of Reykjavik coupled with an afternoon at the Blue Lagoon. First of all, the Jeep that we were taken around in was extremely spacious and comfortable. The windows had a cover over the top of it so even if you wanted to roll the windows down to get a better look at something, no rain or snow would come in to the vehicle. More importantly, Örvar was extremely knowledgeable about everything he was showing us in addition to all of the extra questions we had for him. Throughout the week Örvar was an absolute delight to be with—extremely professional and personable. He added on portions of our trip that were not on our original itinerary but that he thought we would enjoy such as the Viking museum and a pastry shop. He truly put so much effort into making this the trip of a lifetime. Thank you to Örvar and Iceland Premium Tours!
