Christmas Schedule 2025

We're happy to confirm that our tours will be running daily throughout the Christmas period in 2025, allowing both visitors and locals to enjoy the winter season at sea.

Our Classic Whale Watching tours operate as usual over the holidays, along with Imagine Peace Tower tours and Viðey Island ferry services, subject to the regular weekend schedule. The only changes apply on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve where the Northern Lights Cruise will not operate. Instead, on New Year’s Eve, we'll be offering our popular New Year's Eve Cruise, a festive way to welcome the year ahead from the water.

On all other days, we operate according to our regular winter schedule and tours can be booked right up until departure at our ticket office at Reykjavík's Old Harbour, making it easy to plan last-minute adventures during the holidays.

We look forward to welcoming you on board and sharing the Christmas season with you at sea.
