★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 780 reviews · 4 - 6 hours · from $163

Review of the Fagradalsfjall volcano hike from Reykjavík, with a geologist, rough trails, fresh lava, safety advice, and practical booking tips.

“This Fagradalsfjall volcano hike with a geologist was one of the best things I did in Iceland. Our guide is a geologist and she was outstanding – incredibly knowledgeable, clear in her explanations, and genuinely kind. Throughout the hike she showed us different lava fields, explained how each eruption shaped the landscape, and pointed out details in the rocks I would never have noticed on my own. She answered every question with patience and enthusiasm, and you could really feel how much she loves her work. Reaching the viewpoint overlooking the crater while hearing her describe what had happened there made the whole scene come alive – it wasn’t just…”

Hike fresh lava at Fagradalsfjall with a local guide, then visit Seltún and Kleifarvatn on this small-group Reykjanes tour.

“Oddi was amazing! My husband is fascinated by volcanos and he was geeked out the entire day. A private tour is a splurge— but in this case well worth it. Even in a small group the tour has to be accessible to everybody. But with a private tour we were able to go further and Oddi even had time to take us on a few extra stops. He surprised us with hot chocolate and homemade goodies at the top, let us measure the temp of the steam, took us to a black beach, etc etc. He clearly loves his country and what he does for a living. It was the…”
