5.00We were so lucky to see so many whales on this tour, even though this is very much not guaranteed. Even if we hadn't seen any whales, the scenery was truly stunning. The crew were very professional and helpful, providing commentary throughout. Safety was taken very seriously as well, which is always good to know.
Amazing!

5.00It was a spectacular, unforgettable experience to see these gentle giants of the ocean. We loved the whole trip, starting with a bit of information about whales and the region, and enjoying the fiords’ view.
Great Experience

5.00Easy to book and clear directions to meeting point, friendly staff and well organised. Saw around 12 humpback whales (identified by the guides) and spent a good amount of time watching them, was a great experience and good value for money.
Loved this tour

5.00Easy to find, down at the harbour, very friendly staff. Children have to wear a life jacket, which honestly made me feel better, even if child wasn't impressed. You can sit inside the boat and be warmer or step outside on to the dexk at either the front or back of the boat. We went out down the fjord and then stopped, one of the staff members, I didn't get their name, but was talking about the whale and other mammals that frequent the area. Also pointed out where to look when the whales came by. Such an amazing experience, absolutely loved seeing the whales. It is cold out in the fjord but they do provide thermal suits, waterproof coats and warm drinks on board, read the side of the paper cups for the must-do check list whilst in Akureyri
Must do tour!! Whale watching in Akureyri

5.00Our whale-watching experience in Akureyri was fantastic. The tour was very well organized, and cruising through the fjord offered stunning views even before we spotted any wildlife. We were incredibly lucky to see five humpback whales, and the crew made the experience even better; professional, friendly, and full of interesting information about the whales and the area. We felt truly grateful for the chance to watch these amazing animals up close. The tour was also great value for the price, especially considering the length of the trip and the wonderful photos we received afterward. Highly recommend!
