Explore Vestmannaeyjar's famous duo: volcanoes and puffins. Known for its 1973 eruption and the world’s largest puffin colony, this island offers a unique adventure.
Join us on an ATV tour starting southward, where you'll see the famous "elephant rock." We'll then head to Stórhöfði for stunning views of the island cluster. On clear days, you can even spot Surtsey, the southernmost island formed in 1963. Stórhöfði is perfect for watching puffins play and hearing fascinating facts about them. This part is non-offroad.
Next, we venture off-road through lava fields, visiting Prestvik beach, where fishing ship Pelagus stranded, and visit the scene from "The Deep," where Guðlaugur Friðþórsson survived a cold sea swim. The tour continues to Eldfell volcano and along the coast with breathtaking views.
This family-friendly tour requires no prior ATV experience. Drivers need a license, and passengers must be 6+. All gear is provided, including waterproof overalls, gloves, and helmets.

Jump on an ATV with us and explore the most famous things Vestmannaeyjar has to offer, volcanic areas and puffins. We start the tour by going south along the island where we will, among other things, take a look at one of the most special landmarks on the island, the elephant or "elephant rock".
Storhofdi (Great Cape)
From elephant rock, we will drive towards Stórhöfði, where the small island cluster of Vestmannaeyja faces us in all its glory. When the weather is good and the Vestmannaeyjar are at their best, you can see all the way to Surtsey, but Surtsey is the southernmost island in the Vestmannaeyjar cluster and was formed in an underwater eruption on November 14, 1963. At Stórhöfði the view to all directions is magnificent, despite the fact that the weather can make you spin around as it is the windiest place in the country. We will take the walk to a special place and give ourselves plenty of time to observe the crown jewel of Vestmannaeyjar, the puffins, watch them play around on the slope, take off and come in to land while the guide tells us interesting facts about the puffins and their surroundings.

Amazing experience!!

5.0010/10 was so much fun, we went around late may and there were like 20-30 puffins (thousands more come in july) but still enough to see and enjoy them. The tour guide told us lots and tailored the experience to what we wanted to do, weather was so nice but we still wore the coveralls to protect from wind and was very comfortable all day. Victoria was our tour guide and so nice!! She knew lots about the whole island and was so funny.
Once in a lifetime experience

5.00WOW!!! This was one of the most FUN activities we did while in Iceland. Our small group tour ended up only being our family of 5 adults with our lively tour guide Victoria who was from Greece. We were fortunate that when we got to the Puffin nesting green cliffs on the south side of the island that there were 100s of adult puffins there. (Be sure to also stop in the Visitor Center/Puffin Rescue while in town!) Riding the ATVs off road and through the volcanic area was exhilarating with lots of twists and turns! ZOOOOOOOM! ;-) The views were of the volcanic area were surreal.
Excellent Tour

5.00What an awesome way to experience the island! The stop to view puffins was amazing. I could have watched them for hours! Riding the ATV to view the volcano was very fun as it was off road. The guides were excellent!

5.00While ultimately we did not choose to use the Volcano ATV service, because of age and other limitations, we want to commend the owner for his graciousness and help. His kindness was a capstone to a wonderful visit to Iceland. Through his thoughtfulness we were treated to a memorable display of Puffins.

5.00Our guide, Mar, was amazing! She is very knowledgeable about all the different aspects on this tour. Our tour took us to all the spots we wouldn’t be able to see on foot. The Elephant rock, the puffin colony, lava field, middle of a crater and the Stave church. Mar provided great information on each location. Highly recommend if you only have a day and want to see some of the highlights of the Westman Islands and learn a bit of their history. Thank you Mar for making our day (and Bill’s 60th birthday) a memorable one!!
You have to experience the Puffins!

5.00This was a wonderful experience !! Our guild was wonderful as well. She is very knowledgeable of the island, puffins, and volcano areas. She explained how to drive the ATV while focusing on safety and environmental protocols. The Puffin encounter was amazing. They were right below us feeding their pufflings, going in and out of their burrows. Photos came out great! The volcano experience was great too.. testing our ATV skills and enjoying the amazing views! Highly recommend the Volcano ATV company!
Best and most fun tour EVER!!

5.00Most fun tour I’ve taken in a long time! Our guide (cute girl w glasses- sorry can’t remember her name)was OUTSTANDING. Professional and friendly, she made us feel comfortable riding our ATV’s (actually very easy!) and was extremely knowledgeable about the island and its wildlife . Definitely do the two hour tour and see the puffins as well as the volcano. Amazing scenery along the way!! Highly recommend this tour!!
