How is the timeline of the Silfra snorkeling tour, step by step?

  • (If you have booked a tour with pick up you will first meet your driver at the selected pick-up location in Reykjavik)
  • Arrival at the meeting point at Silfra 15 minutes before the tour start time, check-in with guides
  • Division into groups of 6 people, one group per guide
  • Briefing and gear-up with your guide (∼1 hour total)
  • Once you are fully dressed, your guide will take a number from the park ranger and that will be your group’s number to enter the water
  • Make your way to the entry platform, short wait (wait time may vary)
  • 30-45 minutes spent in the water
  • Exit through platform, walk back to the meeting point (∼250 meters)
  • Take off equipment, enjoy hot chocolate and cookies to warm up
  • At this point, you will have time to chat with your guide, ask any questions you might have and take a look at the pics taken during the tour
