• 5Fun adrenaline trip.

  This was a great tour. A fun experience on a speed boat. I was wondering how much bounce there would be over the waves, but the seats are on springs so you don’t feel it much. The guide was informative and engaging. The provided suit did a great job keeping me warm in the September weather. Great trip.

• 5Exhilarating boat experience.

  This was a great experience. The boat was quick so it was easy to see a lot during the hour trip. The guide was knowledgeable and engaging. The crew was very away of safety while still giving an enjoyable ride. The one hour trip was the right length based upon the time of year. Be sure and bring gloves and a hat, even if you don’t think it will be needed. The suit provided by the company kept me plenty warm, but gloves are not included and are helpful. A summer ride may not need them. Highly recommended.

• 5Amazing team 👏

  We've never experienced kinder, more open communication nor greater professionalism from a tour operator than we experienced from Helga Björk Georgsdóttir and the Ribsafari crew! We arrived by cruise ship and were already in communcations the night before the trip. We fully recommend this team and look forward to returning soon!

• 5Must do boat tour in Westman Islands - Not to be missed!!

  The Rib Safari Small Group Tour in the Westman Islands is fantastic. A trip to the islands would be incomplete without the opportunity to see the sights from the vantage points that this tour provides. It is well organized, fun, tour guides are informed and pleasant, and safety is excellent. We had the opportunity to see everything we had wanted and more, with history and educational stories along the way. Felt comfortable and enjoyable for our whole family (adults and kids ranging 5-10 yrs old). Highly highly recommend!!

About Reykjavik

Reykjavik is the northernmost capital of any nation, a colourful, compact city of art and music that opens onto Iceland's volcanic landscapes.

The landmark Hallgrímskirkja church, its tower inspired by basalt columns, rises above streets of brightly painted houses. Down by the harbour, the glass-fronted Harpa concert hall shimmers on the water, and the Sun Voyager sculpture faces the sea toward Mount Esja. Laugavegur, the main shopping street, is lined with design shops, cafés and bars.

Top-ranked sights in Reykjavik: Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss, Harpa.
