Day 1. Depart London

Depart London on the afternoon flight for Keflavik where you will be met and transferred to Hotel Klopp for a 2 - night stay. Hotel Klopp is a good hotel in a central location within easy walking distance of the harbour and the many good restaurants and bars the Reykjavik has to offer.

Day 2. Whale-watching [B]

In the morning you transfer to the harbour for your first whale-watch excursion in one of two vessels. The first takes a maximum of 150 passengers, the second a maximum of 38. As soon as you leave the harbour you should expect to see marine life.The waters in the vicinity are amongst the world's prime locations for Humpback, Fin, Sei, and Minke Whales as well as Harbour Porpoises and White-beaked Dolphins.

As well as whales today you may see a host of different sea birds and on your return, large numbers of nesting birds will be visible on Puffin Island. In the afternoon you have the option of taking a further whale-watching excursion, joining an escorted horseback trip into the surrounding volcanic countryside, or visit the nearby geysers.

Day 3. Homeward [B]

This morning you have time for a final whale-watch excursion, before transferring to the airport for your homeward flight. En-route you stop off at Iceland's most famous tourist attraction, the Blue Lagoon. The lagoon's brilliant waters which are on average 40 degrees c are mineral-rich and said to have curative powers. The lagoon set against the dark volcanic rock is a fantastic sight. You arrive into London in the evening.
