Came for the Birdwatching Seafary, we got the most amazing event free, upwards of 14 humpback whales breaching feeding near the seawall breaker as we arrived it was a free show.
Took a private tour with the Henningsen Transport and Guiding boat to a sea stack, Glacier and Pyramiden. an eleven hour tour which included a BBQ at the Glacier, (all drinks were extra) lots of bird, whale and seal sightings. Plus a Polar bear and when we visited Pyramiden, two of us didn't go inside the buildings, we saw an Artic Fox, what a memorable tour. Highly recommend, check them out on Trip Advisor
We had a return visit and enjoyed the company of Helmut Hinrichsen, the guide took us to his patch for Birds of the North. This year we saw all the birds in breeding plumage. Some guests had walking difficulties a few had wheelchairs. unfortunately, this is IceLand, the ground is very uneven and falling can happen, (I am a witness to that last year I fell on the uneven path), and needed help to get up, I was on my back and my head was close to the water which was a fast flowing stream. So those with wheelchairs & walking sticks found the hills and uneven ground impossible. I didn't fall this year, better prepared.
