Seydisfjordur Iceland Tour Cruise Vlog (4K)

Seydisfjordur (aka Seyðisfjörður) was one of our favorite ports of call during our June 2022 Iceland cruise. In this video we'll show you what this scenic Icelandic town and its surround area were like, plus some useful tidbits of information. We provided some important info that NCL provided for the port via its Freestyle Daily. We explored Seydisfjordur's downtown area, as well as it's beautiful landscape via a two-hour hike, and saw many waterfalls up-close.
Our cruise ship, the Norwegian Star, was too large to dock at the cruise port terminal, so guests had to take lifeboats as tenders to shore. See what that was like:

Small cruise ships like the Hanseatic Inspiration would be able to dock as you can see in the video. We also showed what you can expect your balcony stateroom view during this leg of an Iceland cruise.

    Our pleasure- thank you so much for the comment! 😊 Iceland was amazing! We actually took the Cunard Queen Mary 2 to Southampton from New York, then took the Norwegian Star from Southampton which visited Scotland, Norway & 4 ports in Iceland. We then flew home from Reykjavik.

    thanks for your video. We've just found out our cruise on the Norwegian Star this August is not going to Greenland anymore 😞 but is stopping here and in Grundarfjordur instead. Your video has shown us what a lovely little place it is and we are looking forward to exploring it as you did.

    We started that long hike from town, and we thought 2 hours was good enough (about 1 hour out and 1 hour back). So it depends on when your ship leaves, the weather and how you feel. Have a great time!

    Great questions! 🙂 A tender ticket is something you have to get on the day when you are going on the tender. It usually has a group number on it, so when they call your group number that means you can head down and take the tender. If you cruise many times with a particular cruise line (like we are with NCL), then you don't need the tender ticket- you just head on down to take the boat. You don't need a tender ticket to get back, but you do need your cruise ship room card to show to security.

    You do have to be a passenger because they will check for your room keycard before you can go to the area at the dock to take the tender. If somehow you sneak through and get on the tender and reach the cruise ship, the ship's security will discover that you're not a passenger, and most likely you'll be sent back on another ride on the lifeboat 😏. As for the group number- it's for whoever going on the same tender. So for example if the lifeboat can fit 60 people, they will give up 60 tickets with the same group number.
