This is a private driving tour to Hvalfjordur and Hvammsvik Hot Springs with an expert guide from Your Friend in Reykjavik. On our way from Reykjavik, we visit a waterfall and an elf stone before we head to the brilliant Hvammsvik Hot Springs, which is a beautiful experience where you have access to eight natural hot springs that evolve into the ocean with temperatures ranging from ocean temperatures to 42°C in the old original hot spring. You can even access the sea, steam baths, and hot outdoor showers to warm you up if you are brave enough to brave the ocean. This experience was recently voted the number one thing to do in the world by Timeout magazine! After your rejuvenation soak in the hot springs, it's time to head to the restaurant to enjoy a nice bowl of delicious seafood soup made of fish from the fjord and local ingredients (there is also a vegan option). With the seafood soup, you get fluffy sourdough bread and butter with sea salt, also made on location.
