Geothermal Hot Springs Landing Helicopter Tour from Reykjavík

Take off from Reykjavík on this ~60-minute helicopter tour in Iceland and explore the Hengill geothermal area, one of Iceland’s most active geothermal regions. This experience combines a scenic flight over volcanic landscapes with a landing in a remote geothermal valley.

What to Expect

After departure, your pilot will guide the route based on weather, visibility, and current conditions, flying from Reykjavík toward the Hengill area. As you leave the city behind, the landscape transitions into lava fields, mountain ridges, and geothermal terrain.
