Godafoss Waterfall & Lake Mývatn Shore Excursion

At the designated time, we'll gather at the cruise terminal in Akureyri to commence our excursion to Godafoss Waterfall and Lake Mývatn, two vital natural attractions.

We will drive along the coast of Eyjafjordur. The first stop will be at Godafoss Waterfall, recognized for its stunning beauty.

On the route to Lake Mývatn, we'll observe the landscape characterized by volcanic formations like lava pillars. The lake was formed by a significant eruption of basaltic lava approximately 2,300 years ago.

Afterwards, we will visit Grjótagjá Cave and the Hverarönd hot springs area in Námaskarð. Here, there will be an option to relax in the steam baths or receive a massage, or to take free time for lunch at a local restaurant.

On the return trip, we will stop at the Dimmuborgir lava formations and Skútustaðagígar, known for its pseudo craters. The final stop will be at Eyjafjordur, the longest fjord in northern Iceland.

The excursion will conclude with goodbyes at the meeting point in Akureyri, totaling 6 hours.
