Overview

Your guide welcomes you at your cruise dock or hotel, where you will board your private transportation and settle in for a full day to discover the Diamond Circle.

From Akureyri this is the ideal tour to visit Goðafoss, Lake Mývatn, Dettifoss, Ásbyrgi Canyon, and Húsavík with a full day combining nature, adventure and history.

Whatever is on your bucket list - there are numerous must-see attractions in the area. This sample itinerary is an ideal plan for the day and factors in travel times to maximize your time ashore.

Based on your preferences you can let your guide know if you want to spend more time at a particular attraction and of course if you want to swim at the lagoon, allow extra time for this activity.

Whatever you choose you will journey through North Iceland’s dramatic and well known Diamond Circle. Have fun discovering geothermal wonders of Lake Mývatn, with its bubbling mud pools, lava formations, and rich birdlife. Admire the magnificant Dettifoss - Europe’s most powerful waterfall, and enjoy the breathtaking landscape of Ásbyrgi Canyon, a horseshoe-shaped glacial valley. Húsavík, this is known as the whale-watching capital of Iceland and a fitting finale is visiting Goðafoss, fondly known as the Waterfall of the Gods.

At the end of your full day, you will return to Akureyri to join your ship or return to your hotel, with unforgettable memories!
