Join us for a very special four day tour of the Wild West of Iceland: the Westfjords. This area of Iceland has some of the most remote towns, windy and narrow dirt roads, and friendliest people. It is also host to large nesting Puffin colonies that are accessible from land – the Látrabjarg Cliffs. In the early summer (May – June) the birds are building and roosting in these colonies and as part of our 4-day adventure we have a chance to visit with them up close and personal. On this May trip there are very few people in the Westfjords so we will have the birds to ourselves!
