Join us for a private dive to Silfra, one of the most stunning diving sites in the world, located in the heart of Iceland’s Thingvellir National Park. Our experienced underwater photographers will guide you through the crystal-clear waters of Silfra, capturing stunning photos of your unforgettable adventure.

We’ll pick you up from your Reykjavik accommodation and drive you to Thingvellir National Park, where we’ll prepare for our dive. Our team of experienced dive guides and underwater photographers will provide a thorough briefing on the dive, including safety procedures and equipment usage. We’ll then outfit you with a dry suit, gloves, hood, and boots to ensure you stay warm and comfortable during the dive.

As we enter the water, you’ll be struck by the otherworldly beauty of Silfra. With visibility up to 100 meters, you’ll be able to see every detail of the underwater landscape, including the famous Silfra fissure, which marks the boundary between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.
Our experienced underwater photographers will accompany you on the dive, capturing stunning images of you and the breathtaking scenery. You’ll have the opportunity to purchase these photos after the dive to keep as a lasting memory of your Silfra adventure.

After the dive, we’ll take a short break to warm up and enjoy a hot drink before returning to Reykjavik. Our team will provide transportation back to your accommodation, where you can continue to relive the experience and share your photos with friends and family.

					  Trip of a Lifetime in Iceland  - We finished a small group tour for 7 days in October  with another company and added the private South Coast tour with ice cave  with Julian for 3... read more days. This was actually the best part of our entire trip. Julian was very knowledgeable about Iceland and his love for the country really came through. He was very professional, pleasant and kind. He really took care of all the details. We were able to visit a private black beach where our footprints were the only ones there-stunning views. We went to Diamond beach, Glacier Lagoon, Seljalandsfoss (where he provided waterproof jackets to walk behind the falls), Skogfoss. He even convinced me to put on crampons and visit an ice cave. (Not a small thing after knee replacement surgery 4 months earlier) He literally was there every step of the way and I only attempted it because I trusted him. (True, Julian) We visited Reynisfjara beach, glacier Lagoon, churches  and so many sites! I really liked that he knew uncrowded places for the best views. He also took us to some great lunch spots that were unique. His excellent photography was a great record of our trip. My only regret was that we did not book our entire tour with him.

					  Great trip.  Julian was a great host and his knowledge and enthusiasm made our trip a real pleasure.  - We visited Iceland in early October for 6 days. Friends who had recently been to Iceland strongly recommended that we connect with Arctic Exped to ensure that we made the... read more most of our time there. We are so happy that our friends told us about Julian (owner/founder).  Julian took care of virtually every aspect and logistic of our trip from the moment he picked us up at the airport on our arrival to the moment he returned us to the airport for our departure flight. Julian designed a bespoke experience for us that took into account our preferences for food, accommodations, adventure, and sight-seeing. With his extensive knowledge of (and love for) Iceland, Julian expertly guided us through glaciers, ice caves, waterfalls, black sand beaches, and so much more – all while educating us about the geography and history of the places we were visiting. And on top of it all, Julian was an absolute delight to spend the week with (and we don’t say that about many people)! We are telling all of our friends to visit this wonderful country and that Arctic Exped is the absolute best way to make the most of your time there.
