In the event of unfavourable weather or unstable sea conditions, we sometimes have to cancel our tours for safety reasons. But that doesn't mean you can't make the most of your day in the city! There are numerous things to do in Reykjavík on a rainy day and many of our partners even offer tours that are less weather dependent than ours.

The schedule and prices that are published on our website are subject to change without notice. To see current and up to date availability, please have a look at the booking calendar for individual tours. Note that all rates quoted are based on current purchasing prices in Iceland.

We offer two different kinds of whale watching tours from Akureyri in North Iceland. Our fleet has two fundamentally different vessels and thus, options to choose from; one is a 200 passenger catamaran and the other a 12 seater RIB. We offer a whale guarantee - or come again for FREE!

Elding's souvenir shop is located on board Fífill, a retired fishing boat permanently marooned at Reykjavík's Old Harbour. It's a relaxed place to browse Icelandic souvenirs, practical outdoor items, and a small selection of second hand clothing, all with a focus on Icelandic design, production and sustainability.

As whale watching in Iceland continues to grow, so does the need for ethical practices that protect marine life. At Elding, we follow a strict code of conduct and have developed our own enhanced guidelines to ensure safe, respectful encounters with whales. In a country with few formal regulations, we lead by example to promote sustainable, science based whale watching for the future.
