## Itinerary

1. **Borgarnes** (10m) - The journey starts by kicking off North through the famous tunnel under the Whale Fjord. After a scenic drive bus stops for short break in the town of Borgarnes laying on the small peninsula.
2. **Ytri Tunga Beach** (40m) - Within a short drive from Borgarnes the true magic of Snæfellsnes Peninsula begins. Yti-tunga is a charming farm with nearby beach housing seal colony. Perfect place for animal lovers!
3. **Budakirkja** (15m) - Búðakirkjan Black Church is by many considered the most beautiful church in Iceland.
4. **Arnarstapi** (45m) - A natural harbor surrounded by stunning landscapes. Beautiful rock formations decorate the coastline, spotted with green-and-yellow moss. Here one can stroll along the cliffs and take a perfect picture or simply enjoy the atmosphere of remote fishing village.
5. **Londrangar Basalt Cliffs** (30m) - This is the place where two basalt columns mark the coast, so they can be even seen from the road. This is also another perfect stop for animal lovers - cliffs are famous of being house to many species of birds and air is filled with their sounds
6. **Gorgeous black beach located within boarders of Snæfellsjökull National Park** (30m) - While walking along the black sand beach one can find a curiosity on the beach: four large lifting stones used to measure the strength of fishermen you used to live in the area.
7. **Snaefellsjokull National Park** (pass by, no stop) - In order to reach the northern part of the peninsula tour will take you on the ride around Snæfellsjökull Strato-Volcano, one of the most powerful ones in Iceland (luckily not active these days) covered by the glacier cap.
8. **Kirkjufell (Church Mountain) accompanied by Kirkjufoss (Church Waterfall) is ...** (30m) - Kirkjufell (Church Mountain) accompanied by Kirkjufoss (Church Waterfall) is one the most known and picture-perfect location in Iceland. It got a lot of international attention after being featured in many Hollywood and TV productions - like in Games of Throne just to start with.
