Lektor Inkl. Landausflug oder Aktivität in jedem Hafen + Transfers
Auf dieser Kreuzfahrt ist die Bordsprache ausschließlich Englisch.
Diese Kreuzfahrt gehört zu einer besonderen Auswahl von PONANT Reisen, die speziell für englischsprachige Gäste konzipiert wurden. Neben den gewohnten Elementen einer PONANT Reise, umfassen die aufgeführten Preise für diese Kreuzfahrten Transfers zum und vom Schiff, Vorträge und Diskussionen an Bord mit Weltklasse-Experten, und einen Landausflug oder eine Aktivität in jedem Hafen, bei denen die Gäste die Sehenswürdigkeiten und vieles mehr entdecken und in die unbekannte Kultur eintauchen können.
Entdecken Sie mit PONANT die schönsten Landschaften der isländischen Westküste auf einer 8-tägigen Kreuzfahrt.
Zwischen riesigen Gletschern, tiefen Fjorden, Vulkanen und brodelnden Geysiren, bietet Island ein breites Spektrum an wildromantischen Landschaften.
Sie gehen in Reykjavik, der nördlichsten Hauptstadt der Welt, an Bord. Ihre Häuser mit bunten Dächern und der von Enten bevölkerte See bieten eine Kulisse wie aus dem Bilderbuch.
Der erste Anlaufpunkt Ihrer Reise ist die Bucht von Grundarfjörður, ganz in der Nähe von Kirkjufell. Dieser seltsame kegelförmige Berg besitzt einen einzigartigen Charme und bietet die Gelegenheit schöne Fotos aufzunehmen.
Anschließend erreicht Ihr Schiff Grímsey, eine kleine, schwer zugängliche Insel, deren Vulkangestein an einigen Orten prächtige Basaltorgeln bildet. Dies ist das Reich der Seevögel.
Zu guter Letzt entdecken Sie Heimaey, die einzige bewohnte Insel, die mit beeindruckenden Vulkanen und einer nahezu wüstenähnlichen Landschaft hauptsächlich von der Fischerei lebt.

The Snaefellsnes Peninsula
4 h 45
Upon leaving Grundarfjordur, your journey will take you through several small fishing villages along the famous Snæfellsjökull glacier-capped volcano. After a stop at Djupalonssandur, take a short refreshing walk to the shore of the Atlantic Ocean.
You will enjoy a unique experience discovering this fabulous and mystical glacier, which was made popular in 1864 by the French writer Jules Verne in his novel A Journey to the Center of the Earth, where he located the entrance to the subterranean journey inside the Snæfellsjökull crater: “Here we had entered the Earth by one volcano, and we had come out by another. And this other was situated more than twelve hundred leagues from Sneffels, from that drear country of Iceland cast away on the confines of the Earth…”
Afterwards, you will pass the cliffs of Londrangar on the way to the tiny fishing village of Arnarstapi, which offers splendid multicolor lava formations and an abundance of bird-life.
After a walk around, you will return to your ship through Budir, famous for its beautiful surroundings of black lava and its long beach of yellow sand. Continue over Frodarheidi Heath to the north coast of the peninsula and back to Grundarfjordur.
- This excursion includes walking on uneven but essentially flat terrain. We recommend you wear a wind and waterproof jacket, bring a warm pullover and wear comfortable walking shoes, as the terrain can be slippery and steep. Please note that sites may be visited in a different order.
Inbegriffen
Je nach Verfügbarkeit Preis pro Passagier.
The Splendors of Lake Myvatn
7 h 30
From the pier, your coach heads southeast toward Lake Myvatn, situated between dormant Hverfell to the east and a protected nesting area to the northwest that is home to tens of thousands of birds, including dozens of species of duck. The area around the lake is a stunning collection of geological treasures.
You pause first at the geothermal field of Namaskard, full of mudpots, steam vents, sulfur deposits, boiling springs and fumaroles. Next is the remarkable landscape of Dimmuborgir, where you will explore the wondrously surreal structures left behind when a massive lava lake collapsed into the marshes below. (This fantasy world was featured in HBO's Game of Thrones as the background of the Wilding camp.)
Lunch will be served in one of the local restaurants in Skutustadir, and you will have the opportunity to walk among the large number of pseudo-craters for which this small town is known.
After lunch, your coach heads back toward Akureyri, stopping along the way at Godafoss. Legend has it that in the year 1000, Thorgeir, chieftain of the Ljosavatn district and Lawspeaker of the ancient parliament, signaled his decision to adopt Christianity by throwing his statues of the pagan gods into the Falls. Hence the name Godafoss ("Waterfall of the Gods").
- For this moderate excursion, we recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes (the terrain can be slippery), a wind and waterproof jacket and take a warm pullover. Please be aware that the order of the visits may be reversed.

Traditions of the Westfjords Peninsula
3 h 00
Your excursion begins with a drive along a narrow coastal road to the tiny town of Bolungarvik and to the Osvor Fisherman's Hut. Consisting of a series of old turf-and-stone fishing shacks restored in 1988, the hut houses a variety of relics that tell the story of how arduous life was for the men and women who eked out an existence by catching and salting fish before the technological innovations of the 20th century.
The village of Bolungarvik itself is nestled in the heart of a spectacular bay surrounded by mountains and bathed by the Isafjardardjup or "Djup" fjord, the largest on the Westfjords Peninsula. The nearby Hólskirkja ("church on the hill") contains several interesting pieces, including two grand bells meant to drive away the demons who live on the heath. Your visit here features a short musical program of traditional Icelandic folk songs performed by a local group of singers.
On your return to Isafjördur, pass through the historic old town and its 18th-century buildings to reach the Maritime Museum. The museum is a monument in itself, comprising several buildings that date to the 1780s. As you browse the collections, you will enjoy a tasting of local specialties such as Schnapps, dried fish and locally canned fish cooked the Icelandic way.
- For this excursion, we advise you to wear comfortable shoes, to protect yourself from the sun and to bring a warm and waterproof jacket. Please note the order of the visits may change.

Beluga Whale Sanctuary
1 h 30
No more than a 10-minute walk from the ship you will discover the world's first Beluga Whale Sanctuary. In pursuit of their mission to protect marine wildlife, the Sea Life Trust, a UK charity, founded this sanctuary as an alternative to confining captive belugas in aquariums. There are currently two resident whales in the sanctuary, transported from Shanghai, China in 2019. You will explore the sanctuary's Visitor Center, which includes an aquarium of local marine life, and you will also learn about the work of the Puffin Rescue Center, which is attached to the sanctuary. Your tour of the shoreside facilities is followed by a short boat ride to the sanctuary itself, where you will see the whales in their private bay, as you observe from a safe and discreet distance.
- This is an easy excursion, involving less than a half mile total walking over paved paths. We recommend comfortable shoes, a wind and waterproof jacket, a hat and sunglasses. You may also wish to bring an extra layer for the boat ride.

The Volcanic Island of Heimaey
3 h 00
The largest of Iceland's Westman Islands, Heimaey serves as summer home to millions of seabirds — puffin, fulmar, guillemot and others — whose eggs have traditionally been an important source of food for the islanders. You will observe many of them nesting on the tall cliffs that surround the harbor as your motorcoach sets off on an exploration of this rugged outpost in the North Atlantic.
Your route takes you first through the Herjólfsdalur Valley, where ruins of old farmhouses, some dating back to the 7th century, are found. Continue along the scenic western coast, where you can view the outer islands of the archipelago. The youngest of these, Surtsey, was formed in a volcanic eruption in 1963; it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Stop briefly at the puffin nesting ground of Stórhöfði for magnificent views over the island before the route back to the harbor takes you between two volcanic craters, the 5,000 year old Helgafell, “Holy Mountain”, and the considerably younger Eldfell, “Fire Mountain.” Eldfell erupted in 1973, forcing an evacuation of the entire population. During the six-month eruption, a massive operation was mounted to slow and control the lava flow by pumping seawater and spraying the leading edge. Although many houses were destroyed, the effort was successful in preventing the harbor from being closed. This story is documented in the recently opened Eldheimar Museum, where you will have the opportunity to see the excavated remains of a house buried for 40 years in ash.
- We recommend you wear good and comfortable walking shoes and dress in layers. The walk up to the viewpoint at Stórhöfði is very steep and can be slippery.

Iceland's Golden Circle
9 h 00
This classic excursion encompasses Iceland's “Big Three” attractions—Thingvellir, Gullfoss and Geysir. Collectively known as the Golden Circle, these sites, within easy driving distance of Reykjavik, provide an overview of the scenic wonder for which Iceland is justly renowned.
Your journey begins with a drive inland to Thingvellir National Park, which ranks at the top of Iceland's most visited places and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2004. Occupying a vast lava plain of green moss and wild flowers, Thingvellir has been revered by Icelanders since the year 930, when the oldest legislative body in history, the Althing, first convened here. During your visit, take special note of the Law Speaker's rock and of the remains of the turf shelters that were once used as dwellings during the two-week assemblies of the Althing at the height of summer every other year.
Leaving Thingvellir your tour continues over Lyngdalsheidi heath and through the fertile farmlands to the south, where you discover the most beautiful waterfall of the country, the "Golden Waterfall" of Gullfoss. This is where the river Hvita drops 96 feet in two cascades, creating an awesome spectacle.
At the Geysir area, you will encounter a remarkable collection of hissing hot springs, bubbling mud puts and geysers. "Strokkur," the most active geyser, spouts water and steam every few minutes. Here, amid these remarkable geothermal phenomena, enjoy a buffet lunch of soups, salads, meats and vegetables.
After lunch, return to Hafnarfjördur through the Grimsnes region, stopping in Hveragerdi, where geothermal energy has been used to power an extensive greenhouse industry. Continue to the Pearl, a glass dome built atop giant tanks that store hot water for metropolitan Reykjavik. The Pearl's viewing deck affords panoramic views of the city.
- For this moderate excursion, we recommend you wear comfortable shoes, a wind and waterproof jacket, a hat and sunglasses and you take a warm pullover. Please be aware that the order of the visits may be altered.

The Snaefellsnes Peninsula
4 h 45
Upon leaving Grundarfjordur, your journey will take you through several small fishing villages along the famous Snæfellsjökull glacier-capped volcano. After a stop at Djupalonssandur, take a short refreshing walk to the shore of the Atlantic Ocean.
You will enjoy a unique experience discovering this fabulous and mystical glacier, which was made popular in 1864 by the French writer Jules Verne in his novel A Journey to the Center of the Earth, where he located the entrance to the subterranean journey inside the Snæfellsjökull crater: “Here we had entered the Earth by one volcano, and we had come out by another. And this other was situated more than twelve hundred leagues from Sneffels, from that drear country of Iceland cast away on the confines of the Earth…”
Afterwards, you will pass the cliffs of Londrangar on the way to the tiny fishing village of Arnarstapi, which offers splendid multicolor lava formations and an abundance of bird-life.
After a walk around, you will return to your ship through Budir, famous for its beautiful surroundings of black lava and its long beach of yellow sand. Continue over Frodarheidi Heath to the north coast of the peninsula and back to Grundarfjordur.
- This excursion includes walking on uneven but essentially flat terrain. We recommend you wear a wind and waterproof jacket, bring a warm pullover and wear comfortable walking shoes, as the terrain can be slippery and steep. Please note that sites may be visited in a different order.

The Splendors of Lake Myvatn
7 h 30
From the pier, your coach heads southeast toward Lake Myvatn, situated between dormant Hverfell to the east and a protected nesting area to the northwest that is home to tens of thousands of birds, including dozens of species of duck. The area around the lake is a stunning collection of geological treasures.
You pause first at the geothermal field of Namaskard, full of mudpots, steam vents, sulfur deposits, boiling springs and fumaroles. Next is the remarkable landscape of Dimmuborgir, where you will explore the wondrously surreal structures left behind when a massive lava lake collapsed into the marshes below. (This fantasy world was featured in HBO's Game of Thrones as the background of the Wilding camp.)
Lunch will be served in one of the local restaurants in Skutustadir, and you will have the opportunity to walk among the large number of pseudo-craters for which this small town is known.
After lunch, your coach heads back toward Akureyri, stopping along the way at Godafoss. Legend has it that in the year 1000, Thorgeir, chieftain of the Ljosavatn district and Lawspeaker of the ancient parliament, signaled his decision to adopt Christianity by throwing his statues of the pagan gods into the Falls. Hence the name Godafoss ("Waterfall of the Gods").
- For this moderate excursion, we recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes (the terrain can be slippery), a wind and waterproof jacket and take a warm pullover. Please be aware that the order of the visits may be reversed.

Traditions of the Westfjords Peninsula
3 h 00
Your excursion begins with a drive along a narrow coastal road to the tiny town of Bolungarvik and to the Osvor Fisherman's Hut. Consisting of a series of old turf-and-stone fishing shacks restored in 1988, the hut houses a variety of relics that tell the story of how arduous life was for the men and women who eked out an existence by catching and salting fish before the technological innovations of the 20th century.
The village of Bolungarvik itself is nestled in the heart of a spectacular bay surrounded by mountains and bathed by the Isafjardardjup or "Djup" fjord, the largest on the Westfjords Peninsula. The nearby Hólskirkja ("church on the hill") contains several interesting pieces, including two grand bells meant to drive away the demons who live on the heath. Your visit here features a short musical program of traditional Icelandic folk songs performed by a local group of singers.
On your return to Isafjördur, pass through the historic old town and its 18th-century buildings to reach the Maritime Museum. The museum is a monument in itself, comprising several buildings that date to the 1780s. As you browse the collections, you will enjoy a tasting of local specialties such as Schnapps, dried fish and locally canned fish cooked the Icelandic way.
- For this excursion, we advise you to wear comfortable shoes, to protect yourself from the sun and to bring a warm and waterproof jacket. Please note the order of the visits may change.

Beluga Whale Sanctuary
1 h 30
No more than a 10-minute walk from the ship you will discover the world's first Beluga Whale Sanctuary. In pursuit of their mission to protect marine wildlife, the Sea Life Trust, a UK charity, founded this sanctuary as an alternative to confining captive belugas in aquariums. There are currently two resident whales in the sanctuary, transported from Shanghai, China in 2019. You will explore the sanctuary's Visitor Center, which includes an aquarium of local marine life, and you will also learn about the work of the Puffin Rescue Center, which is attached to the sanctuary. Your tour of the shoreside facilities is followed by a short boat ride to the sanctuary itself, where you will see the whales in their private bay, as you observe from a safe and discreet distance.
- This is an easy excursion, involving less than a half mile total walking over paved paths. We recommend comfortable shoes, a wind and waterproof jacket, a hat and sunglasses. You may also wish to bring an extra layer for the boat ride.

The Volcanic Island of Heimaey
3 h 00
The largest of Iceland's Westman Islands, Heimaey serves as summer home to millions of seabirds — puffin, fulmar, guillemot and others — whose eggs have traditionally been an important source of food for the islanders. You will observe many of them nesting on the tall cliffs that surround the harbor as your motorcoach sets off on an exploration of this rugged outpost in the North Atlantic.
Your route takes you first through the Herjólfsdalur Valley, where ruins of old farmhouses, some dating back to the 7th century, are found. Continue along the scenic western coast, where you can view the outer islands of the archipelago. The youngest of these, Surtsey, was formed in a volcanic eruption in 1963; it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Stop briefly at the puffin nesting ground of Stórhöfði for magnificent views over the island before the route back to the harbor takes you between two volcanic craters, the 5,000 year old Helgafell, “Holy Mountain”, and the considerably younger Eldfell, “Fire Mountain.” Eldfell erupted in 1973, forcing an evacuation of the entire population. During the six-month eruption, a massive operation was mounted to slow and control the lava flow by pumping seawater and spraying the leading edge. Although many houses were destroyed, the effort was successful in preventing the harbor from being closed. This story is documented in the recently opened Eldheimar Museum, where you will have the opportunity to see the excavated remains of a house buried for 40 years in ash.
- We recommend you wear good and comfortable walking shoes and dress in layers. The walk up to the viewpoint at Stórhöfði is very steep and can be slippery.
