Witness Earth’s Creative Power

Experience the incredible force of volcanic activity from the safety of a helicopter on this extraordinary tour over Iceland’s active volcanic systems. See firsthand how the Earth creates new land through the raw power of molten lava and volcanic eruptions.

Fly Over the Reykjanes Volcanic Systems

This helicopter tour provides unparalleled access to Iceland’s most dynamic geological features, offering views of recent eruption sites, fresh lava flows, and the ongoing volcanic activity that continues to shape the Reykjanes Peninsula. Fly over sites where new eruptions have captivated the world, and witness the stark beauty of newly formed lava fields where molten rock has cooled into otherworldly landscapes.

Your expert pilot provides geological commentary throughout the flight, explaining volcanic processes and Iceland’s position on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Each flight offers unique views as volcanic activity continues to modify the landscape, ensuring no two tours are exactly alike.

Your flight will adapt to current volcanic activity, focusing on the most active and visually spectacular sites available during your visit.

ERUPTIONS ARE UNPREDICTABLE AND WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT THERE WILL BE AN ERUPTING VOLCANO AT THE MOMENT OF THE TOUR
