The tour departs from Akureyri. The first stop gives you the best views over Akureyri and Eyjafjörður. After a short photo stop we drive on to Goðafoss waterfall. One of Iceland´s most beautiful and uniquely shaped waterfalls. Here we tell you why the falls are important in Icelandic history and give you enough time to explore the area close up.
Then we head on to Myvatn. We stop at the pseudo craters for a short while before continuing on to Dimmuborgir.

Dimmuborgir is a unique and very interesting area. Visitors are given time to walk among the unusual lava sculptures, pillars and caves. Our guides know everything about this area and will be happy to walk with you and explain how the area was created 2,500 years ago, as well as tell you a few folktales about the local trolls.

After a lunch break overlooking Dimmuborgir, we visit the former nature baths located on the tectonic plates between Europe and America. The last volcanic eruption in Myvatn was in 1984 from the volcano Krafla and lava from this eruption is visible everywhere you look.
Hverir is an area of bubbling sulphur mud pits and steaming vents, watch your step as you explore this unique area.
You will have the option to go into the geothermal Forest Lagoon and soak in the picturesque nature lagoon just on the outskirts of Akureyri. Note that the entrance fee for the lagoon is not included in the tour price.
During the winter months the frost, low lying sun and often snow add something extra to this amazing tour of Myvatn.
