This cruise takes place aboard elegant, premium-class yachts featuring stylish interiors and panoramic windows. Each vessel has 92 comfortable cabins of various categories, with a private terrace or balcony.
A unique feature of the lower deck is the lounge area with the innovative "Blue Eye" system—large portholes designed to resemble the eyes of marine mammals, combined with built-in hydrophones that capture and broadcast underwater sounds in real time. This allows guests to observe ocean life without leaving the ship. For island landings, motorized Zodiac boats are available.
Onboard, every detail is designed for comfort and relaxation:
In the evening, we will meet the yacht’s crew at the Reykjavik port (details can be found in the “Place & Time of the group meeting” section).
If you have free time before departure, we recommend exploring the capital of Iceland. A great starting point is the Perlan Museum, which offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city and its surroundings. Then, you can take a walk through the historic center and see the Parliament building. Among the must-visit places is Hallgrímskirkja Church, known for its height and unique architecture. Continue your walk along Skolavordustigur and Laugavegur streets, famous for their colorful houses, cafés, shops, and souvenir stores.
After boarding the yacht, our journey begins: we leave the port and head toward Iceland’s western coast.
Today, we set course for the Westman archipelago, where we will visit two islands.
The first is Surtsey. This place is unique—it appeared on the map just 60 years ago as a result of a powerful volcanic eruption. To preserve its pristine ecosystem, landing on the island is prohibited. However, we will admire its rugged landscapes from aboard our vessel.
Next, we will visit Heimaey, home to both people and thousands of Atlantic puffins that come here for the summer. We will have the opportunity to observe their daily life. Keep in mind that the winds at Cape Stórhöfði can be strong, so dressing warmly is recommended.
You can choose between two excursion options:
Today, we arrive in the charming town of Grundarfjordur, surrounded by mountains and lush greenery. We will reach the shore via Zodiacs and explore the area by choosing one of two routes:
We will visit the tiny island of Grímsey, which lies directly on the Arctic Circle. It is the only place in Iceland where the midnight sun can be observed! By tradition, anyone crossing the Arctic Circle receives a commemorative certificate. Here, we will soak in the mesmerizing landscapes and spot numerous seabird colonies, including puffins.
Early in the morning, we will set foot in Akureyri—a charming northern town with picturesque streets and a relaxed atmosphere.
Our first stop is Godafoss, whose semicircular cascade plunging into the river is truly spectacular.
You can then choose one of the following excursions:
Today, we explore northwestern Iceland and the town of Isafjordur, tucked between black cliffs. The town is so compact that it can be seen entirely from the top of a nearby mountain.
Nearby, we find scenic locations such as Látrabjarg cliffs and the Dynjandi waterfall.
Excursion options:
Early in the morning, we return to Reykjavik. Today, you can choose between two routes:
After breakfast at 07:00, we disembark from the yacht and head to the airport.
If you have a late flight, you can further explore Reykjavik. Options include hiking up Mount Esja, visiting the Saga Museum, or relaxing in the warm waters of the Blue Lagoon, surrounded by black lava rocks.

This journey takes place in a remote, hard-to-reach region. All activities during the cruise depend on ice and weather conditions, and the expedition leader and captain will determine them. The actual course of the expedition may differ from what is stated. Encounters with the listed wildlife are not guaranteed.
The price includes all-inclusive meals on board.
Important: Since this is a group tour, meals are prepared for all guests collectively. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate individual menus.
If you have severe allergies or intolerances, please inform the manager in advance. While we will relay this information to the guide and accommodation providers, we strongly advise personally ensuring your dietary needs are met.
For strict dietary requirements, we advise bringing your own food or purchasing suitable products locally.
Available throughout the yacht.
We will encounter wild landscapes, the harsh beauty of the fjords, and three islands. One of them is completely uninhabited, but it is there that we will witness a massive colony of seabirds—puffins and guillemots—that arrive here for the summer. On another island, we will cross the Arctic Circle and receive a certificate!
We will also visit two country’s capitals: Reykjavik—a dynamic city with unique architecture, and Akureyri, a cozy northern port nestled among the mountains. Additionally, we will stop in small coastal settlements where we can walk among rugged cliffs, lava fields, and breathtaking waterfalls. If the weather is on our side, we will see how the sunlight transforms the cascading water into shimmering rainbows.
Our home for these eight days will be a comfortable yacht with spacious cabins. In the evenings, we can relax in the pool, visit the spa, watch a movie, or enjoy the tranquility of the northern ocean.
