We will pick you up from Reykjavik on our minivan marked with our Troll Expeditions Logo.
The pick up starts at the same time stated on your voucher and it can last up to 30 minutes.
Once everyone is aboard, off we go to Thingvellir National park to take part in one of the most exciting activities in the world: snorkelling between 2 continental tectonic plates!
Our guide will be at the meeting point waiting for you; once there, you will get ready with all the gears we provide: you just need to make sure you wear comfortable clothes (a thin layer of thermal clothes is recommended). It will take 5 minutes to walk to the Silfra fissure. From the outside, you may think this is just a regular lake; wait to be immersed underwater, and you will see the wonders of pure and clear glacier water, with an extraordinary visibility of about 100 meters! Our guide will take photos of you while snorkelling.
Once the activity has finished and everyone is ready, we will drive you back to Reykjavik.
