A first class operation! A fabulous experience. It is amazing how many whales you can see so close to the capital city of Iceland, We had a ten-hour layover on our way to Spain and took advantage of the down time. The trip was well organized and the guide, Lucas, was amazing. Lucas was knowledgable and entertaining. Of course, the highlights of the trip were the whales. We briefly saw some Harbor Porpoises, had many views of Minke Whales, and a LONG, LEISURELY encounter with a massive Humpback Whale! WONDERFUL!!!

Amazing Tour at the old habor the guide was really nice an we got to see whales and dolphins but if you do this be prepared with warm cloth or get an overall that is supplied in the ship

Saw the whales. Amazing Icelandic sea view surrounded with the mountains. Cofe and toilets are on the boat. Good atmosphere and easy to move around the boat.

Very good and competent guide, she spotted many whales, jumping out of the water for few of them, weather was sunny, sea was very quit, we were very lucky seing many whales this day, the captain and the guide were very good at finding them on the sea.

Last minute decision booking for us but a definite good decision! We booked up for the 3hr tour where we saw 4 different humpback whales. The crew were so good at finding the whales and the guide talking us through was fantastic! It was all so amazing and informative. One of the whales came up unexpected about 2 metres from our boat so the pics I’ve added weren’t zoomed in ❤️ best day!

We had a very good time and managed to get sightings of humpback whales, dolphins, and some late-season puffins in flight. The boat was large and stable, with ample viewing points to get a view. Early sightings were more distant but we managed to get closer later on in the tour. The crew moved the boat to various locations to try to get the best sightings. The guide also provided a session on whale bones which added to the trip. If you want a very close encounter, then the rib boat trips may be better, but this was a very nice and comfortable day out on the water for a family.

I went on a glorious, sunny Sunday day in Reykjavík harbor to see some whales. I was not disappointed at all! Everyone was friendly and welcoming of all of us on the tour including the kids. The crew was knowledgeable about the migratory habits and the types of whales inhabiting the waters there. Also, loved that they respected the whale's space while pointing them out in the water around the boat. I would definitely recommend this tour if you have a few hours and want to experience the beauty of whales in the wild.

They found us a whale… 5 stars. Downside after I paid to park, when I checked in there was a map for FREE parking. I went back and looked and nowhere did they tell me about the FREE parking. Good thing they found me a whale. 🐋

A fantastic afternoon tour for whale watching out in Faxaflói Bay. Our guide was very informative about the island & Reykjavik’s surrounding Rekjanes peninsula, as well as the whales & other marine life we saw. The crew & captain did an excellent job of approaching whales without crowding or scaring them away.

I went with my brother and this was a great package deal for our last day in Iceland. It allowed us to have a bit of a later start to the day and gave us plenty of time to get back later to the hotel to pack for our early morning flight back home. We started with the lava show and were lucky to be in a small group, having front row seats to the show and the opportunity to ask lots of questions. The host for the show was super passionate and knowledgeable. Although the weather was a bit rainy and gloomy for the whale watching it still was a super experience. The staff were friendly and welcoming, offering windbreaker jackets to stay warm and checked up on everyone throughout the trip. We saw a variety of sea life with the host talking us through each spotting and what it was we were seeing. The length of time was good enough to make sure we saw a variety of things and increase the opportunity to see something, whilst not being too long that you were wanting to head back to land. In the return journey Iceland was hidden by a wall of fog and there was something quite indescribable to be following the seabirds back to port, slowly watching as Iceland broke through the fog and the harbour became visible. Overall, a great value experience package and I would recommend for anyone to do, with friends family or as a solo traveler!

We were greeted by the lovely crew. The cabin was clean and warm (for those who could resist not being on deck) and there was a good selection of drinks and snacks, including milk for tea! (not always available). There were lots of places to look out to sea and plenty of seating. The guide was informative and the staff helpful and pleasant. Must mention decent clean toilets and the 'warm suits' that were available to those who needed them. We were lucky - the weather was good - sunny and about 14 degrees. And yes, we did see whales - hump back and Minke - also Arctic Skewer, Artic Tern, Puffins and Icelandic gulls. Fab trip, nothing to complain about at all. We would recommend this crew/boat/trip whole heartedly. It compared very well to a second trip we took 2 days later with on a different boat. Thank you.

Very well organised and good tour guides. There were warm suits for everyone to enable standing on deck to catch a glimpse of the wildlife. We saw a whale fluke, some dolphins and a minke whale as well as all kinds of birds. It is difficult to be in the right spot to catch sight of the animals, but this was a good try and the female tour guide was excellent. If you did not fancy standing on deck there was plenty of seating inside and a cafeteria.

The guides were excellent and did a great job of locating various whales and porpoises. We got a lot of close up photos on the trip. Really worth the time and effort! It was a highly of our trip to Reykjavik.

We joined this tour as it was a combined tour with Northern Lights Tour by boat. But the Northern Lights Tour was cancelled on the day of departure and it was too late to cancel the whale watching tour. We had a refund for the Northern Lights Tour but since we took the transfers in the morning, they couldn't refund us even though we paid for 2 transfers for 2 tours. We felt cheated as it was not clear that the transfers were not refundable if the tours were cancelled. As for the whale watching tour, the boat was too crowded and there are issues of insufficient seats. There were too many people crowding at the decks to look for the whales. After a few moments of squeezing with the crowd, we decided to just stay indoors. Luckily, the staff took photos of the whales and we were able to download the photos. We had a much better experience when we took the whale watching tour at Hauganes.

We were a group of four, from Iceland and Lithuania, and all of os had a fantastic time with Reykjavik Sailors!!! The guide was professional, funny and very knowledgeable. We got to see a lot of puffins and other seabirds, some bigger types of whales and we had docents of dolphins swim and play all around us. The sailing was smooth, you could by drinks and snacks on board and they even offered everyone seasickness tablets (for those who needed one) and warm overalls to use, free of charge. I highly recommend a tour with Reykjavik Sailors to everyone :)
