Take advantage of the Icelandic midnight sun in June, July & August, and use the bright night sky to look for whales, dolphins and more. The 3 hour whale watching tour includes an onboard multimedia show for information about Iceland’s natural marine life, as well a cruise on the sea from Reykjavik Old Harbour. Look out for humpback whales and soak up the serenity of the sea by night.

This was an amazing tour. The boat is comfortable, the bar prices are reasonable for Iceland (bring your own cup for a 50% discount!).
I was on a tour twice, and once we saw almost nothing and the second we saw so many leaping whales and dolphins it was almost unreal :) You can get pictures after the fact directly from Elding, but they weren't very good.

Fantastic experience with dolphins swimming in front of the boat, minke and humpback whales as well. The boat was spacious and lovely, with a great guide too.

We saw some minke whales and northern gannets. The boat wasn't overly full and it was a pleasant evening.

Very cool, bunch of whales, must do if your not going to be in the north, but if you can there are much more whales in husavik

Second time I've done this and great both times, although very different type of sightings. This time we saw 6-10 Minke whales for a considerable period if time, with Rob the naturalist giving lots of insights into their behaviour.
This is a must do tour every time I visit Iceland.

Took the night cruise (in broad daylight) so we had a full day to tour land sites. Saw a few Minka whales and dolphins but that was it. More interesting was the view of the entire western island mountains and sunset

It was an amazing experience! We've been pretty lucky cause one whale really got close to our boat and stayed there for a while! The guide explained many interesting details. I recommend it!

Thia cruise was 3 hours of magic. The midnight sun was beautiful on the horizon, but the appearances of a number of humpback whales and many dolphins and puffins was truly breathtaking.

We loved this tour! The late hour meant it was pretty quiet on the water, only a couple other boats. Our guide was fantastic, very knowledgeable and fun. He did a great job pointing out where to look and what we were seeing. We got to see quite a few whales, including dives and breeches! The boat was nice too, had bathrooms and a bar with hot drinks for when it got cooler. The scenery is also amazing, the view of the volcanoes and the bay was great. We would absolutely go again, we loved it.
