Here's what awaits you on our Iceland tour:

Reykjavik

Known for its vibrant culture and history, Iceland’s capital city is the perfect starting point. Stroll through the charming streets, visit local museums, and enjoy the lively cafés and the arts scene. 

Explore landmarks like the Hallgrímskirkja Church, a striking architectural masterpiece, and the Harpa Concert Hall, a modern cultural center with stunning glass façades. 

Golden Circle

Next, embark on the famous Golden Circle route. Your first stop is Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. This area is not only geologically significant but also was the site of Iceland’s first parliament.

The tour continues to the Geysir geothermal area, home to the active Strokkur geyser. Watch it erupt every few minutes, sending a column of boiling water high into the air. 

Finally, you visit Gullfoss or the “Golden Waterfall” -  one of Iceland’s most impressive spots. The powerful cascade and the surrounding landscape is a haven for photography.

South Coast

Travel along Iceland’s picturesque South Coast, where you'll encounter the stunning Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls. Seljalandsfoss is unique in that you can walk behind the falls for a truly immersive experience. Skógafoss, with its 60-metre drop, is equally impressive and often adorned with rainbows on sunny days.

Continue to the black sand beaches of Reynisfjara, famous for its dramatic basalt columns and powerful Atlantic waves. The charming nearby village of Vík provides a perfect stop for lunch and local shopping.

Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon

See massive icebergs floating in a serene glacial lagoon, creating a surreal and otherworldly landscape. Just a short walk away is Diamond Beach, where ice fragments from the lagoon wash ashore and glisten like diamonds on the black sand.

Blue Lagoon

Relax in the warm, mineral-rich waters of this geothermal spa, known for its healing properties and stunning blue hue. Surrounded by lava fields and with modern facilities, the Blue Lagoon offers a luxurious end to your Icelandic adventure.
