If you'd like to take a trip to see whales, dolphins or puffins, Whale Safari & Elding offers cruises from the capital. With Whale Safari, excursions are organized in small groups of 12 people on a RIB speedboat to give you an unforgettable experience and a thrill to behold. With Elding, classic boat excursions are also available, as well as northern lights and sea fishing: wifi, coffee on board and even more comfort. The 2 offices are only 5 meters apart.

One of the leading agencies for aquatic wildlife observation, with a professional and friendly team to introduce you to the discovery of these marine mammals. Even if, as far as whales are concerned, you can't force nature to put on a splendid show every day, you'll have to make do with small dolphins and puffins. Good to know: you can see whales all year round in Iceland, but the best time is in summer, from May to September. And if you don't see anything during your outing, it's often possible to come back.

This is an excellent whale watching tour and highly recommended. They are so big and I had the privilege to watch 2 whales for a nice long time after a failed attempt. But this is a must do tour as the experience and the air is amazing. One enjoys the sightseeing apart from the whales. The boat that they take you on is clean and big and very safe.They serve some refreshments too at a cost. They have suits to wear if you want to fight cold. The staff is very nice , polite and helpful. Definitely don’t miss this place.

We didn't see any lights the first night, but I enjoyed our tour guides' positivity on both nights. After not seeing them the first time, we got free tickets and were told to book by email. Due to time constraints, we went 2 nights later, and were lucky enough to see not just green ones, but red ones as well.

In case our cameras didn't take the best pictures, they provide pictures of the night.

If you're going out on the deck, wrap up well because it's cold.

Unglaublich wie dicht die Wale am Kai von Reykjavik sich aufhalten

Balade en mars 2024. Super expérience, équipe sympathique et souriante! On a eu la chance de voir des dauphins et une baleine. Ils font attention au bien être animal et ne s’approchent pas trop pour ne pas les déranger (gros point positif) mais on a quand même une bonne visibilité et ils prennent des photos qu’ils nous envoient en fin de journée donc pas besoin d’être fixé sur sa caméra on peut profiter du moment ! Merci beaucoup pour ce moment !

We went Whale watching today and had a great time. The boat was fairly big and had lots of space. We left on time and headed to sea. The staff where friendly and good on the PA system. We were unlucky and only saw a small pod of Dolphins. No Whales to be seen but not the companies fault. They tried to find us anything and when the other boat found Dolphins we headed towards and got to see them and spent time near them. They stayed as long as they could even getting bsck slightly late to ensure we saw something. Can't fault the effort or enthusiasm of the team despite the outcome! Would recommend these guys and if you are remotely travel sick, take a tablet before hand!!
