Whale watching tours are scheduled from the old harbour in Reykjavik from beginning of April through October. Whales most frequently seen on tours with Elding are the Minke whales , Humpback whales , Dolphins and Porpoises other speces are sometimes spotted.
We depart from the old harbour of Reykjavik from the pier Ægisgarður, which is located down of Ægisgata.
The tours usually start with a coach pickup at the hotels in the Reykjavik area 20 to 40 minutes before departure. The departures are at 09:00 , 13:00 and 17:00 and the tours are about 3 hours at sea
We do have excellent guides that follow our guidelines, but they include an introduction and safety rules are announced. In addition, what we might see and how we search for the whales. We do tell about the seabirds and the nature in the bay Faxafloi. It is different how much is announced it depends on sightings, conditions and season. However, we try to answer all questions.
 It depends on the tide and sea state if we start the trip going to either Akurey or Lundey to wach the puffins (May 15.-aug 15.) There are no two whale watching trips the same, therefore, we have to be flexible and line the trips up regarding conditions, weather and sightings. It is different how far we have to go, but we rarely have to go further than 15 nm from the harbor.
