WINTER EDITION
A combination day tour available directly from Reykjavík city. Includes caving in the Blue Mountain area & snorkeling in Silfra fissure in Þingvellir national park.
Trip difficulty 2 out of 5 possible.
We start with the black as we explore the Leiðarendi cave in the hidden world under the lava field in the Blue Mountains area. The cave is a perfect example of an Icelandic lava tube where you have the opportunity to discover the marvels created by past volcanic activity. This is an adventure that everyone can undertake. After the cave we have lunch before moving into the blue...
Snorkeling in Silfra is our second adventure. The Silfra fissure is one of Iceland’s best-kept secrets, an otherworldly scene that is world famous for its heavenly shades of blue. The crystal clear water in the deep fissure gives you a feeling of being weightless as you float along with the lazy current. The snorkeling is a relaxing but exotic trip in an environment most will only encounter in their dreams.
The Black & Blue is an amazing trip, a true journey to the borders of reality and dreams.
Bad eyesight? Since you are wearing snorkeling / dive goggles to see underwater there can be nothing in the way of the seal to keep them from filling up with water. That is, you can not wear glasses underneath the goggles. You will have to go without them, wear eye lenses or bring your own goggles with prescription.
