★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 47 reviews · 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes (approx.)

Fly from Reykjavik Domestic Airport with a professional English-speaking pilot over the Reykjanes Peninsula, Lake Kleifarvatn, Seltun, Grænavatn, lava fields, and the Blue Lagoon. This private flight lasts about an hour and gives your group up to six a clear aerial view of Iceland’s volcanic terrain.

“Everything about this tour was wonderful. We went out in the morning, but the weather was bad so the company organised to take us out again in the afternoon. The staff were fantastic, especially the pilots, and the tour took us over the incredible landscape, with a view of volcanos and geothermal areas that you just cant get from the ground. Landing balanced on the crater's edge of a volcano was incredible!”
