Lots to Discover

A wonderful tour. We went really only excited to see Puffins but discovered so much more to love about these truly unique islands. The thousand years of history blew us away, as did the intriguing traditions of the locals today. It was super rainy so visibility was at times challenging, but there was still a great deal to see and learn. The guide Ebbi was terrific and characterful. We would highly recommend. Be sure to give yourself time to wander the island a bit afterwards!
Great tour - saw and learned a lot, great guide; Heimaey Island is beautiful

Really nice Heimaey Island tour. This was our 4th trip to Iceland, and visiting Heimaey was always on our list. Our guide/driver Einar was great -- he had a sense of humor, answered our questions, and gave us a lot of information. It was humbling and amazing to be at Ground Zero of Eldfell volcano that exploded in 1973, especially with already knowing the story, having seen documentaries and then hearing more about it "up close and personal" from Einar. The visit to the Sea Life Trust was great -- we got to interact with a rescue puffin. We saw the Beluga whales Little Gray and Little White who are being educated on how to survive in a natural habitat -- they were to be released into a protected nearby cove in a few weeks. There were only 5 of us on the tour with Einar, and that really helped make the tour more personal. Heimaey Island is beautiful - we are so glad we finally got there!

Excellent way to learn about this beatiful island and its history, also about the little puffins. The guide, born and raised here did a great job, his loved for his native land and its history was real. The entire family had a great time spending time with the puffins during the tour and later after 9pm. Thanks

This tour was a wonderful introduction to the Westman Islands. Our group was a nice, smaller size. The pace of each stop and the spacing between them was good - we never felt rushed and there was just the right amount of time back on the bus to look out at the scenery and relax. Our tour guide was named Einar Birgir. He was very knowledgeable about the island and we enjoyed his commentary. I took this tour with my two teenagers and my younger child. The length of the tour was just right to keep us all interested and happy. The highlight was when the guide let Tóta the puffin stand on my 6-year-old's head!

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
