Combine Iceland's raw power and serene spa culture on a private half-day escape that whisks you from storybook Seydisfjordur Cruise Port to thundering Gufufoss and the soothing geothermal pools of Vok Baths. With a local driver-guide handling every mile, you'll trade gangway crowds for mountain vistas, glassy lakes, and mineral-rich warmth--then be back on board with time to spare.

From your cruise in magical Seydisfjordur, your adventure begins with a breathtaking drive through mountains, offering panoramic views of picturesque fjords and valleys. The journey leads you to Gufufoss, one of East Iceland's hidden gems. Known as a mini Skogafoss, this tranquil waterfall is a sight to behold and a secret many cruise passengers never discover.

The tour continues to the celebrated Vok Baths on Lake Urridavatn - an award-winning spa where floating infinity pools draw naturally hot, silica-rich water straight from beneath the lakebed. These floating infinity pools offer you a chance to immerse in mineral-rich waters while soaking in the views of pristine wilderness. To further enhance this calming experience, you will be treated to a complimentary herbal tea made from lake-filtered water.

The itinerary includes starting the tour with a brief from the guide at Seydisfjordur Port, a scenic drive via Fjardarheidi Mountain Pass, a short visit to the Gufufoss Waterfall, and then the drive through East Iceland's countryside to the Vok Baths. Here, you will have 60-75 minutes for bathing, tea tasting, and an optional cafe visit. We wrap up the tour with a scenic return drive to Seydisfjordur port, well in time for the cruise departure.
