Experience the adventure of a lifetime on a specially designed RIB boat allowing you to get closer to the whales and wildlife of the fjord.
The tour starts from the Floating Pier at Hof Cultural Centre in downtown Akureyri. Board the RIB boat and ride out into the serene fjord framed by spectacular, glacier carved and snow capped mountains. The RIBs are fast small boats that can reach the whales quicker and cover a larger area, improving the chance of spotting whales, dolphins and bird life without disturbing them in their natural habitat.

It’s not just about where you go, but how you experience it. I’m here to turn that trip into an adventure you’ll cherish.
