Akureyri Optional Private Excursions Avoid the crowds and hustle and bustle associated with a group activity. For a memorable trip ashore, we invite you to consider a private shore excursion. Enjoy the undivided attention of your own driver/guide and the flexibility of experiencing the aspects of the local culture that most interest you. Below are just some samples of the private shore excursions we can arrange for you. Let us personalize your experience! Akureyri - Lake Mývatn classic - Nature Baths- FD Tour <div> <div> <p>The tour starts by driving along the coast of Iceland’s longest fjord, Eyjafjordur, from where you will get an excellent view of Akureyri and its surrounding mountains. After crossing Víkurskard-pass, view the Fnjoskadalur valley, where clear geological remains from glacial and post glacial times can be seen. The first stop is by Godafoss falls - one of the most spectacular waterfalls in Iceland; the water of the river Skjalfandafljot falls from a height of 12 m over a width of 30 m. In 1000 A.D., at the meeting of the Althing, the Icelanders voted to adopt Christianity. The wooden idols of the Norse mythology were thrown into the falls in a symbolic gesture that swept away the old religion. Thus the Godafoss literally means the "Waterfall of the Gods”. From there you will drive directly to the Lake Myvatn area, stopping by the unique craters at Skutustadir before having lunch. After lunch you will visit the Dimmuborgir lava labyrinth, a paradise of towering lava castles, natural arches and countless unexplored grottos.</p> <p>Next is a visit to the Myvatn Nature Baths. The Nature Baths offer bathers a completely natural experience - a relaxing dip amidst clouds of steam and a luxurious swim in a pool of geothermal water drawn from depths of up to 2.500 meters. The baths contain a unique blend of minerals, silicates and geothermal micro-organisms. The warm, soothing waters are beneficial to skin and spirit alike, creating a sense of wellbeing and creating a lasting memory of your visit. Facilities include a reception area and cafeteria, changing rooms and showers for up to 120 guests, three natural steam baths accommodating up to 50 bathers at a time, and a 5000m2 outdoor geothermal bathing pool maintained at a constant temperature of 38-40ºC.</p> <p>Due to its chemical composition, undesired bacteria and vegetation do not thrive in the lagoon making chlorine or any other disinfectant redundant. Following a relaxing bathe, you will then continue to the gurgling purple and yellow sulphur cauldrons at the high temperature thermal field of Namaskard, which are so hot that they actually boil. Following a short walk at Namaskard, enjoy a relaxed return drive to Akureyri.</p> </div> <div></div> <div></div> <div><span><strong>Tour Duration:</strong> 8 hours </span></div> <div><span><strong>Tour can operate: </strong>Morning </span></div> <div><span><strong>Wheelchair Accessible: </strong>No </span></div> <div><span><strong>Physical Activity Level:</strong> Moderate </span></div> <div><span><strong>Included: </strong>Private car with driver-guide</span>, entrance fee to Nature Baths.<span> </span><span>Pick up/drop off at the port. </span></div> <div><span><strong>Not Included: </strong>Meals, swimsuit and towel (swimwear and towel can be rented at the Nature Baths)</span><br /> <br /> <img alt="" src="https://www.icelandtravel.is/_next/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ficetprodblue.wpengine.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2018%2F02%2Ffile-723.jpg&w=1920&q=75" /></div> </div> <div></div> Akureyri - Godafoss Waterfall & Laufas Turf Farm - HD Tour <div> <div><span><span>Leaving Akureyri, cross the waters of the fjord and travel along the slopes of Vadlaheidi Mountain, via the Fnjoskadalur Valley to Vaglaskogur Forest - one of Iceland's rare woodlands which is part of an extensive soil and vegetation reclamation project. From Fnjoskadalur, you'll travel to historic Godafoss - waterfall of the heathen gods that figure prominently in Iceland's 12th century Book of Settlement. Legend has it that Thorgeir of Ljosavatn, a chieftain present at the Thingvellir in the year 1000, was given the authority to decide which religion was to be adopted by the Icelanders. He was a pagan himself, but after a period of profound thought, decided that Christianity was to be the religion of Iceland. Upon his return home, he took the statues of the pagan gods he used to worship and threw them unceremoniously into a waterfall near his homestead. From this time, the waterfall has been named Godafoss (Waterfall of the Gods). After enjoying some time at the falls, the tour continues. The areas geological past is clearly visible on the surrounding hillsides and suggests that a once large periglacial lake filled the valley. Onwards to Laufas a 19th-century farmhouse built in the traditional Icelandic style of stone and turf – now one of the last turf farms in the country.  Originally it was a manor farm and vicarage, the farmhouse itself dates back to 1866 and contains many interesting household and agricultural implements used by the gentry at around that time. The nearby church was built in 1865. Following a pleasant scenic drive back to Akureyri, a stop is made at the towns Botanical Gardens famed for its 2,000 species of local and foreign flowers which, incidentally, bloom outside thanks to Akureyri’s warm microclimate.</span></span><br />  </div> <div></div> <div><span><span><strong>Tour Duration: </strong>3-4 hours</span></span></div> <div></div> <div><span><span><strong>Tour can operate:</strong> Morning or Afternoon</span></span></div> <div></div> <div><span><span><strong>Wheelchair Accessible:</strong> No</span></span></div> <div></div> <div><span><span><strong>Physical Activity Level:</strong> Moderate</span></span></div> <div></div> <div><span><span><strong>Included:</strong> Private car with driver-guide from Akureyri,  entrance fee to Laufás turf farm (open 15 May - 15 September.

The earliest features of the castle, the two large drum towers, about nine metres in diameter, can still be seen on the eastern side.   </span></span></div> <div></div> <div><br /> <span><span>Return to Belfast Port on the motorway which runs close to some scenic inland countryside.<br /> <br /> <br /> <strong>Inclusions:</strong></span></span></div> <ul> <li>Private Driver Guide</li> <li>Giants Causeway visitor Centre</li> <li>Entrance to Dunluce Castle</li> <li>Lunch Including Tea and Coffee</li> </ul> Belfast: Cultural Belfast - 8 hours Belfast may be a small city, but it has a wealth of culture and excitement on offer for you to discover!

Liverpool: Explore Liverpool - 8 hours This morning, you are met as you disembark your cruise ship by your driver-guide. Begin your full day private sightseeing tour of Liverpool, once the most important centre of maritime trade in the world.<br /> <br /> Liverpool was the European capital of Culture in 2008 as is also the birthplace of Beatles. You may like to walk through the Mathew Street to the Cavern Club, following in the footsteps of the Beatles. See the buildings known as the ‘Three Graces’, and the impressive civic buildings that were constructed as a result of the mercantile wealth. The most important of these is St. George’s Hall, that interestingly claims to be the world’s first air-conditioned building. The Walker Art Gallery houses one of the finest collections of paintings in the UK outside of London. However the two most magnificent buildings from the 20th-century in Liverpool are the cathedrals. The Anglican Cathedral built in traditional gothic style is the largest church in the UK; the Roman Catholic cathedral is a fine example of contemporary modernist architecture.<br /> <br /> Time permitting you may also pass under the River Mersey to Port Sunlight, one of the first planned industrial villages in the world that was opened by the Lever Brothers to house their workers in better conditions. The focal point of the village is the Lady Lever Art Gallery that houses a large collection of Wedgwood Jasperware. You could also visit Speke Hall (closed Monday and Tuesday), a fine example of a Tudor half-timbered manor house that is richly decorated with wooden furniture inside.<br /> <br /> <strong>Highlights:</strong> <ul> <li>Follow in the footsteps of the famous band the Beatles who grew up in Liverpool</li> <li>See the impressive civic buildings, the Walker Art Gallery and the largest church in the UK</li> </ul> <strong>Tour Duration:</strong> 8 hours<br /> <br /> <strong>Tour Can Operate:</strong> Morning / Afternoon<br /> <br /> <strong>Wheelchair Accessible:</strong> Please enquire for more information<br /> <br /> <strong>Physical Activity Level:</strong> Light<br /> <br /> <strong>Inclusions: </strong> <ul> <li>Private transport by luxury car or minivan</li> <li>An expert local driver-guide for 8 hours</li> <li>Entrance fees to all sights and museums</li> <li>All taxes</li> </ul> <strong>Exclusions:</strong> <ul> <li>All cruise travel, personal items, meals and associated costs</li> <li>Gratuities</li> </ul>	07/08/2023 09:00 AM	07/08/2023 06:00 PM
