Can't recommend these guys more! My boyfriend and I booked onto a trip late the night before and they were up for taking us out the next day, even though we were the only ones. They were so friendly and cheerful, and had great vibes. The boat was amazing, all of the equipment was great with warm suits, goggles and binoculars provided. It was amazing to see the puffins flying alongside us and diving next to us. The water is so clear you can even see them, and other birds such a razorbills swimming down and under the boat. They asked if we were comfortable with speed which we were, and the boat was so fast it was thrilling and we even raced some Eider ducks who are surpringly fast! 🙂 they also took us to see some seals who swam towards us, and a beautiful waterfall. The guides were so informative and fun and gave us loads of time to take pictures. Afterwards, they even came to find us at our camp to deliver our own binoculars which we had left behind and we ended up enjoying a fish soup with them in the town after. We highly recommend this trip and this town. Thank you guys, so sorry we can't spell your names for this review! 🤣 Georgia and Rick, UK. 🙂

This was hands down one of the best experiences I had in Iceland! We had an incredible amount of fun and spotted a ton of birds throughout the trip.

Huge shoutout to our guides, Hallur and Arnar, for being so kind, hilarious, and knowledgeable. The tour lasted just over an hour and took us into one of the most stunning birdwatching spots I’ve ever seen, which was only accessible by boat. At one point, it honestly felt like we were in the jungle and Antarctica at the same time (you’ll get this when you try it for yourself!)

They provided us with goggles and a full safety suit that kept us warm and safe. We didn’t get wet at all, but it was nice knowing we were ready if the occasion called for it.

The rib boat ride itself was a blast. It’s fast, smooth, and if you like a bit of speed, you’re in for a treat! They keep it super safe but still make it exciting. There’s even a moment where it feels like you’re racing the birds.

Of course, the best part was the puffins. There were so many to watch as they dove and zipped around the boat. We even saw some other wildlife I won’t spoil here—but wow.

Bonus: They offer discounts for local spots in town like the spa and food stops, and it’s clear they really care about their community.

This was day 4 of our trip and genuinely a top 3 experience in all of Iceland. If you’re considering it, do yourself a favor and go. It’s 100% worth the detour from the usual Ring Road itinerary.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Thanks to Captain Hallur, we had an amazing private tour!
He showed us the best places around the fjord and with his bird knowledge, we were also able to learn a lot about the puffins and the local bird species.
Last but not least, he took us to the place where the seals live and they were just 10 meters away from us sunbathing on the rocks.
The whole tour felt like, you are having a fun boatride with your friends in one of the most beautiful places in Iceland. Don't miss it!!

This RIB boat 1hr safari was hands-down the highlight of our trip to Iceland! The entire experience was incredible from start to finish. Our guides were not only extremely knowledgeable about the local wildlife and the fascinating geological history of Iceland, but they also had us laughing the whole time with their great energy and humor.

We saw an amazing variety of birds, including puffins (of course!), and were taken to a spot where seals lounged along the shoreline, such a special moment. The boat ride was thrilling yet safe, and the views were absolutely breathtaking. Even the drive into town was beautiful and added to the overall experience.

If you’re in the area, don’t miss this tour. It’s a perfect blend of fun, nature, and Icelandic storytelling!

A one-of-a-kind experience! Excellent crew with a great sense of humor. They entertain and teach at the same time. Unique location, breathtaking views, abundance of nature. We had a wonderful time.
