Godafoss Waterfall & Lake Mývatn Shore Excursion
At the indicated time, we'll meet at the cruise terminal in Akureyri to start our excursion to Godafoss Waterfall and Lake Mývatn.
We will drive along the coast of Eyjafjordur with our first stop at the Godafoss Waterfall, known as the "Waterfall of the Gods".
On the way to Lake Mývatn, we will observe volcanic formations like lava pillars. The lake was formed by a large eruption of basaltic lava 2,300 years ago.
We will visit the Grjótagjá Cave and the Hverarönd hot springs area in Námaskarð, where you can relax in the steam baths or have lunch at a local restaurant.
On the return journey, we'll stop at the Dimmuborgir lava formations, a popular tourist attraction, and at Skútustaðagígar, formed by pseudo craters. Our final stop will be at Eyjafjordur, the longest fjord in northern Iceland.
We will end the excursion by returning to the meeting point in Akureyri 6 hours later.
