Highlights
  • Bridge Between Continents - Bridge between Europe and North America on Reykjanes Peninsula.

The lava-scarred Reykjanes peninsula lies on one of the world’s major plate boundaries, the Mid Atlantic Ridge. According to the continental drift theory the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates are continuously drifting apart with great forces under the gaping rifts. As the plates diverge, linear fractures, known as fissures form due to stresses created by the tension that builds up as the plates move away from each other.
The Bridge between two continents at Sandvík is a small footbridge over a major fissure which provides clear evidence of the presence of a diverging plate margin. The bridge was built as a symbol for the connection between Europe and North America.

One can cross the continental divide on Leif the Lucky’s Bridge and take home a personalized certificate at the Reykjanes information center and Reykjanes Geopark visitor center at Duus Cultural house.

Nice short layover excursion - We had a great guide, Mr. S, who was very knowledgeable, understanding and made the tour really fit our group. We had a 10 hr layover and this was the perfect adventure. Would highly recommend!!!

Fantastic intro to Iceland! - What a fantastic way to be introduced to Iceland! Our guide, Agnes, was knowledgable and added so much more to the experience. She shared stories, local culture, and solutions when the weather did not cooperate. The sights we saw are off the beaten path with no crowds. We added a volcano hike to our tour and by far, the best part! Highly recommend this to everyone!

Great start prior to hotel checkin times - Great way to fill the time between landing and checkin and don't have to worry about your luggage. We were a family of 6 adults and had plenty of room. Beautiful start to our vacation.
