4.Dive the Divide: Silfra Fissure Scuba Tour | Reykjavik Pickup

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 94 reviews · 6 hours (approx.) · from $344

Reykjavik pickup for a small-group Silfra scuba tour at Thingvellir, crossing between continents in dry suits with huge visibility.

“Over all disappointed with our experience. Whilst the dive was lovely, our guide wasn’t interested in us in the slightest. Guide swam ahead and paid no attention to the fact I was having an issue with my weights. Also didn’t stop at the rift for us to take the iconic pictures of touching both sides. Whilst the dive itself is lovely, in beautiful clear water, I didn’t get what I wanted out of it due to the guides disinterest so was disappointing overall.”
