Strandir Adventure Private Tour

Strandir is one of the most unique destinations in the country due to its isolation and natural landscapes. If you want to do something different in Iceland and not just the typical tours, Strandir is a great option.

Strandir holds a compelling and poignant history of witchcraft, witch-hunting, and sorcery, offering a tour into the mystical world of the supernatural. Our journey begins early as we depart from Reykjavik and make our way to the town of Hólmavík, the largest settlement in Strandir. Here, you will find the Museum of Icelandic Sorcery and Witchcraft, exploring the intriguing stories and practices of the past.

Continuing along the coastline of Steingrímsfjörður, we are often treated to the sight of Humpback Whales in the fjord.

The Sorcerer's Cottage provides a glimpse into the lives of the locals during the 17th century, offering insight into why people turned to sorcery to seek solace in their challenging lives.

Next, we reach the village of Djúpavík. Once a bustling hub during the prosperous "herring" age, this abandoned village now stands as a ghost like testament to the past.

Just north of Djúpavík, we have the privilege of visiting what can be argued as one of the world's most secluded man-made swimming pools, Krossneslaug. This hidden gem offers a comfortably warm pool where you can unwind with the view of the North Atlantic Ocean. Price is per vehicle.
