Venture to Iceland and discover dramatic landscapes, epic sagas passed down through generations, dancing northern lights, and pristine snow next to bubbling geothermal springs. Test your physical abilities, learn about the fascinating history and culture, experience an authentic connection with people and the environment, as well as relax and rejuvenate. Head home with new friends and perspectives.
Here’s a sample itinerary for an 8-day trip, but we will tailor a travel plan specifically for your desires, budget, and timeframe. Contact us for specific pricing and details.
Arriving at Reykjavik’s Keflavik Airport early morning, you’ll ride in comfort to central Reykjavik, drop your luggage at your centrally located, highly rated 4-star hotel, and find yourself brunch. Afterward, you’ll board the vehicle that will take you on a small group tour around Iceland’s Golden Circle. You’ll learn about the physical growth of Iceland at Þingvellir National Park, see the active geysir Strokkur erupt, get some incredible photos at Gullfoss waterfall, and enjoy a soak in a secret lagoon before time for dinner of your choosing and rest.
After enjoying your included breakfast, you’ll explore Reykjavik on a guided walking tour of Reykjavik. Be sure to enjoy your included lunch! Afterwards, learn more about this enchanting country at Perlan. Reykjavik boasts plenty of museums, from culture and history to punk rock, so entertain yourself during your free time. Finally, enjoy an authentic Icelandic dinner, and retire early for tomorrow’s adventure!!
Today begins with a leisurely breakfast. After, you’ll head out of the city for an Icelandic horse-riding experience – you’ll get an authentic up-close look at the lava fields, as well as a feel for the special gait of these native horses. After returning to your accommodation and finding your lunch, you’ll join another small group to experience snorkeling in the ice-cold waters at the fissure between the North American and European tectonic plates – an unforgettable experience as well. You’ll return to Reykjavik in time to find the dinner of your choosing – try one of the famous hotdog stands, perhaps. After dining, you’ll join a small group hunt for the Aurora Borealis, or northern lights – and even though it will be cold, you’ll be supplied with cocoa, treats, and blankets as your small group searches for this naturally occurring phenomena.
Start planning your tripAfter an early and hearty breakfast, you’ll be picked up to enjoy a full day discovering the wonders of Iceland’s south coast – experience standing behind a waterfall, participate in an epic hike up a glacier with your certified guide, walk on one of Iceland’s famous black sand beaches, and feel the mist from other spectacular waterfalls. You’ll return late to your lodging, so your dinner will already be booked at the wonderful cafe there.
You’ll start early today, again, and will experience both an ice cave, as well as a hike through a lava cave. When you return to Reykjavik, enjoy a dinner of your choosing, and prepare to leave central Reykjavik in the morning.
Today begins leisurely – enjoy any spots in the capital city you wish. After lunch, you’ll transfer to your Grindavik hotel for the evening. Enjoy your welcome dinner here and relax.
After a relaxing breakfast, head to the famed Blue Lagoon for as long as you like. Optional lunch at Lava Restaurant (extra fee applies). Once you’ve soaked your fill, you’ll return to your accommodation for your last evening in the Land of Fire and Ice.
After a leisurely breakfast, you’ll transfer to the airport, bidding your new Icelandic friends “verið þið blessaðir”, or “you have been blessed”, and take your memories of this epic adventure with you!!
Start planning your tripFrom $2,799 per person (double occupancy), excluding airfare, but we’re happy to book that as well!
