Check out the old Incan capital on a Cusco vacation

Cusco is an iconic historic city in Peru that was once the capital of the Inca Empire. You'll still be able to find much of the ancient structures here, though most of the city is dominated by Spanish Colonial style architecture. Numerous museums here have massive collections of Incan artifacts, but you'll be often better off simply visiting the local ruins where you can see stonework up close in action.

Culture and customs.

Similar to many other parts of Europe , Iceland has rules in place to help preserve its culture and geographic isolation is also a factor in developing and preserving the country’s cultural qualities. Independence, self-sufficiency and a strong work ethic – traits that allowed this northern island to flourish in challenging conditions – continue to be highly valued today.

Icelandic culture and customs are full of myths and legends, many with a connection to Christian and pagan values. Folk tales of elves, gnomes, fairies and trolls still circulate, and whether or not the locals continue telling these to unlock the secrets of the past, or simply in jest, they’re definitely worth listening to. But when news outlets report on road plans being changed to avoid disrupting an elfin church, it’s easy to believe that this unusual country and its magical landscapes are a product of what lies ‘hidden’ in its mysterious depths.

Today, Iceland is a highly modern and progressive society. It is consistently rated as having the smallest gender pay gap and strong LGBTQIA+ rights representation in the parliament and media. It’s also one of the greenest countries in the world, with almost all energy coming from renewable resources such as hydropower and geothermal.

History and government

Pre-modern history.

This island nation was settled by Vikings in the ninth century, with much of the early literature recognizing Norse sailor Ingolfur Arnason as the first settler of Iceland, founding Reykjavik in AD874 along with his wife and brother. Icelanders remain proud to this day of their Viking heritage. The Icelandic language, for example, is so similar to the Old Norse spoken during Viking times that Icelanders can still read and understand the original Icelandic sagas.

A book of settlements titled Landnamabok, compiled in the 12th century, documents the names and other details of nearly 400 original settlers of Iceland who arrived in the ninth and tenth centuries. The document tells of a Norse Viking called Floki who sailed to Iceland for fishing and farming, however, due to his livestock not surviving in the conditions, had to return to his home in Norway. After heading up a mountain and looking over a fjord full of sea ice, he named this land Iceland.

In AD930, an Icelandic General Assembly was established and was deemed a Christian settlement less than a century later. Settlers and slaves brought to Iceland by Scandinavians were of Irish and Norse descent, and although some still debate which communities influenced the identity we now know to be Icelandic, the first distinctive text documenting ‘Icelandic-ness’ is said to be a rule book of sorts – the First Grammatical Treatise.

20th century and today

After long periods under Norwegian and Danish rule, Iceland was recognized as a sovereign state in 1918. On 17 June 1944, Iceland became an independent republic. It has a multi-party parliamentary system and a written constitution. The parliament is still called Althingi after its medieval General Assembly.

Many of Iceland’s major industries stem from its location and surrounding natural resources. Tourism aside, fishing and seafood products make up much of the country’s exports and employ a majority of the workforce along with agriculture and farming. Recent investment in greenhouses and geothermal energy has seen Iceland become increasingly self-sufficient, growing products that usually do not fare well in icy climates, such as potatoes, tomatoes and potted plants. Other food is imported along with many consumer goods.

Eating and drinking

Flanked by the ocean and inhabited by almost twice the amount of sheep as humans, Iceland understandably boasts a cuisine dominated by seafood and local lamb.

The country’s diet relies on plenty of potatoes and lamb, but seafood trumps all – sourced fresh year-round from the waters of the North Atlantic and Arctic and prepared in a variety of ways. Be sure to try Hardfiskur – a salty fish jerky, best enjoyed buttered.

Sheep and cows are free-range and fed chemical-free diets, making lamb and dairy products exceptionally good here. One of the best ways to enjoy the produce on offer is to warm yourself up from the inside out with a hearty meat soup: a mixture of lamb, root vegetables, herbs, and rice.

Skyr, a popular yogurt that is technically a cheese, is also a must-try in all its variety of flavors. Eat it like the locals do at any time of the day – for breakfast, as a snack, as a dipping sauce, in drink form (called drykkur), or as a dessert topping.

Surprisingly, hot dogs are Iceland’s most iconic fast food. Widely available, a hot dog is probably the cheapest meal you’ll have in Iceland. Order one with all the toppings – sweet mustard, ketchup, raw onions, deep-fried onions, and aioli.

Rye bread (also known as rugbraud) and butter is a common side to most meals in Iceland, but the preferred way of cooking the loaves are quite unique. Traditionally, the bread is buried near a natural hot spring, sprinkled with sugar, and left to gently steam for up to 24 hours. The end result is dense, cake-like bread that has a slightly sweet taste. Enjoy it with a traditional Icelandic soup, smoked lamb, or, of course, fish.

Name a food and chances are Icelanders have tried to add licorice to it. Black licorice is beloved by locals and found in a wide range of desserts and candy bars. During your time here, head to Valdis in Reykjavik to test out a cone filled with salted black licorice ice cream. Even if the weather’s cold, the ice cream joints will be open!

The weird and wacky

Icelanders have a reputation for serving up some of the most unusual food in the world – boiled sheep’s head, fermented shark known as harkarl, ram testicles and smoked puffin to name a few. Although the country’s isolation and harsh winters once meant these foods were eaten out of necessity, today most of these ‘delicacies’ are only prepared to shock tourists. Try if you dare, but we suggest sticking to the common foods that locals eat.

Alcohol can be expensive in Iceland and is best bought at the duty-free shop. Although forms of prohibition existed until 1989, alcohol is now widely available all over the country in state-run liquor stores. If you’re feeling brave, try the local brew, Brennivin – a potent, traditional caraway-flavored schnapps nicknamed ‘black death’.

Iceland travel highlights

1. explore reykjavik.

Iceland's capital city is totally beguiling, surrounded by volcanic peaks and boasting a vibrant art and nightlife scene. Browse the city’s galleries, explore the colorful street art, dine on fresh lox (traditionally cured salmon),   or cycle to the striking cathedral of Hallgrimskirkja – trying to say that after a tipple or two of Brennivin (Iceland's signature spirit) might be tricky! Get stuck into Icelandic culture on our 6 day Northern Lights Escape .

2. Discover the Golden Circle

The Golden Circle is the holy trinity of southern Iceland. This 186-mile (300 km) route is brimming with natural wonders that showcase why so many travelers fall under Iceland's spell. Marvel at the layered cascades of Gullfoss Waterfall, explore the dramatic rift valley in Thingvellir National Park and witness the unpredictable eruptions in Geysir Geothermal Area. Marvel at breathtaking natural landscapes on our 5 day Iceland Express tour.

3. Cruise along Jokulsarlon

It's impossible not to be amazed by the sheer size and beauty of Jokulsarlon, Iceland’s famous glacial lagoon. Enjoy a boat tour along the icy waters where you'll cruise past towering glaciers and witness icebergs of all shapes, sizes and shades of blue drifting into the Atlantic Ocean. Cool down on our 8 day Iceland Discovery tour.

4. Experience life in Akureyri

Soak up the charm of this northern port city – the second-largest city in Iceland. Better described as a big town with lots of character, you'll be won over by its quaint turf homes, rich history and folklore, and the imposing Mount Súlur that looms over the town. Akureyri is also an ideal Northern Lights viewing location between September and April. Explore the streets of Akureyri on our 9 day Premium Iceland tour.

5. Be wowed by Westfjords

Venture off course to the unspoiled, untamed reaches of the Westfjords – without the big crowds. This is a land where mountains meet the sea most dramatically, where waterfalls tumble down into the inky fjords and puffins live along the towering cliffs. If you’re lucky and conditions allow, we might cruise along Látrabjarg (Europe’s largest bird cliff) to see puffins, razorbills, guillemots and more. Adventure through the Westfjords on our 14 day East Greenland and Iceland Northern Lights tour.

6. Bathe in the Blue Lagoon

There's no need to worry about being cold all the time in Iceland when you can slip into the famous Blue Lagoon just out of Reykjavik. Surrounded by black volcanic rock, a soak in the mineral-rich, milk-blue waters of this geothermal spa is the perfect way to relax and unwind after a big day of walking. 

Geography and environment

Iceland possesses some of the world’s most incredible natural wonders and unique landscapes. From active volcanoes to vast ice fields, bubbling hot springs and enormous glaciers, these dramatic contrasts have earned Iceland the nickname of the ‘Land of Fire and Ice’.

Many of these geological features are products of geographical location – on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates intersect and their movements away from each other create volcanic activity. The country is covered by moss-carpeted lava fields, soaring fjords, incredible waterfalls and dramatic geysers, all of which add to Iceland’s otherworldly look.

The country is also the perfect spot to see the Northern Lights. From September to March, you’ll have the best chance to view this spectacular natural light show when the skies are clear and auroral activity is high. But don’t let that stop you from visiting in other seasons – Iceland’s natural wonders are truly year-round attractions.

Top 4 natural phenomena of Iceland

1. Northern Lights

The Northern Hemisphere's Aurora Borealis has captivated and intrigued travelers for years. Any winter tour of Iceland absolutely must include a chance to see the Northern Lights. This natural light display that runs along magnetic fields often brings hypnotic green, yellow and red shades to the night sky in Iceland from September to March. As one of nature's most magnificent triumphs, this is one unforgettable spectacle.

2. Gullfoss

Otherwise known as Golden Falls, this spectacular three-tiered waterfall drops suddenly into a deep cavern. The falls are surrounded by lush, green countryside, and the rainbows created by the mist and spray provide brilliant photo opportunities.

3. Lake Myvatn

This part of northern Iceland was born from volcanic eruptions millions of years ago and continues to be shaped by volcanic activity to this day. The combination of strange lava formations, thermal caves and a sprawling lake dotted with craters and rising rocks makes for an eerie yet beautiful landscape.

4. Jokulsarlon

Literally translating to ‘glacial river lagoon’, this monumental glacier lake is the largest in Iceland. Featuring a parade of large and small blue icebergs floating on and under the pure, icy water, this lagoon is so beautiful that it has been used as a backdrop for Hollywood films, a set for reality television shows and in a starring role on a postage stamp!

Iceland is notorious for being an expensive destination. Travelling on a budget here is difficult but can be done. Head to Bonus – Iceland’s discount grocery store – so you can cook rather than eat out for each meal. The duty-free store at Keflavik International Airport is the best place to pick up a bottle of Icelandic alcohol such as Brennivin liquor, Reyka vodka or Viking Gold beer for a fraction of the price you’d find elsewhere. It’s also a good idea to travel as a group, as operators can get better rates than a single traveler at hotels and restaurants, plus they know all the local hotspots.

If you’d like to take home Icelandic local specialties, Reykjavik is the best place to shop. Some of the country’s coolest retailers can be found on Laugavegur, one of the oldest shopping streets. Here you can browse clothing from quirky local designers alongside traditional lambswool sweaters, as well as tourist shops selling plastic Viking hats and puffin magnets. For smaller boutiques selling local art, head to Skolavordustigur.

Festival and events

Despite the long and dark winters, Icelanders are among the happiest people in the world. Why? One reason is that they understand the importance of getting together and having a good time, even if it’s pitch black outside. There are many celebrations to join in on throughout the year, but here are a few to look out for:

Winter Lights Festival

Every year, buildings around Reykjavik light up at night to celebrate both the winter world and the growing light after a long period of darkness. The Winter Lights Festival uses many public buildings and all major museums and thermal pools to illuminate the city with lighting designs and art installations as a way to get people thawed out after a long winter.

This annual mid-winter feast in January or February is one of Iceland’s oldest festivals, dating back to Viking days. Fearless eaters can find restaurants in Reykjavik offering special Thorrablot dinners of boiled sheep’s head, rotten shark’s meat, and cured ram testicles. If you can, try to snag an invitation to a local’s house, where celebrations tend to be more festive and involve lots of singing, dancing, and drinking.

Viking Festival

Modern-day Vikings in traditional garb flock to Hafnarfjorour each June for a festival Leif Erikson would approve of. Swordfights, archery, axe throwing, a traditional market, concerts, and a proper Viking feast are all part of the festivities.

National Day

1944 marks the year that Iceland became a republic after an overwhelming majority of the citizens voted for independence. The deciding referendum took place between May 20 and 23 that year; however, Iceland’s National day is celebrated on June 17th – the birthday of the man who originally led the movement in the late 19th century, Jon Sigurdsson. There are parades all around the country, usually with brass bands and marching horses. Music food, fireworks, and street parties – you get it, they’re a patriotic bunch.

Dalvik Fiskidagurinn Mikli (The Great Fish Day)

Each August, the northern fishing village of Dalvik invites you to a free, all-you-can-eat fish and seafood buffet – held for no reason other than to get people together over a delicious meal. You might come for the free food, but you’ll stay for the company.

Iceland travel FAQs

Do i need a covid-19 vaccine to join an intrepid trip.

Trips from 1 January 2023 onwards

From 1 January 2023, Intrepid will no longer require travelers to provide proof of vaccination against COVID-19 (excluding all Polar trips and select adventure cruises).

However, we continue to strongly recommend that all Intrepid travelers and leaders get vaccinated to protect themselves and others.

Specific proof of testing or vaccination may still be required by your destination or airline. Please ensure you check travel and entry requirements carefully.

When is the best time to visit Iceland?

Deciding what you want to see in Iceland will give you a better idea of when is the best time to travel. Wanting to get active around the countryside and see waterfalls and wildlife? The warmer spring and summer months are probably ideal. Prefer to soak in the geothermal lagoons and get a chance to see the Northern Lights? Well, likely the cooler months – with their longer nights – are best for you.

Spring and summer are considered optimal times to visit Iceland if green landscapes and balmy days are your thing. The early spring months bring warmer days, while summer offers long daylight hours with only short nights. In the summer season, July and August are the warmest months and the busiest time for tourists.

In September, tourism tends to slow down as the weather becomes unpredictable and the countryside is usually less accessible. However, there are plenty of attractions for the off-peak traveler, including the beauty of fall colors and, of course, the awe-inspiring Northern Lights.

As you might expect, winters in Iceland can be challenging. During late December there are about four-and-a-half hours of daylight and it's often cloudy. In January, there are on average three sunny days in Reykjavík, with temperatures hovering around freezing point, often with chilling winds.

Do I need a visa to travel to Iceland?

Iceland is a member of the Schengen Convention, which means that if you travel to an EU member country or countries, like Iceland, for a total of less than 90 days, a visa is not required. Citizens of Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the US, the UK and other member countries of the EU and Schengen area are included under this arrangement. Other countries do require a visa to visit Iceland, including citizens of South Africa.

Visas are the responsibility of the individual traveler. Entry requirements can change at any time, so it's important that you check for the latest information. Please visit the relevant consular website of the country or countries you’re visiting for detailed and up-to-date visa information specific to your country of origin. Check the Essential Trip Information section of your tour itinerary for more information.

Is tipping customary in Iceland?

Tipping isn't expected in Iceland. Hotels, restaurants and cafes already include a service fee and consumption taxes (VAT) in the bill, so tipping extra isn't necessary. However, feel free to leave a small amount if your experience has been particularly good, especially for assistance provided by drivers, tour leaders or service workers.

What is the internet access like in Iceland?

Travelers will be able to access the internet in cybercafes and at wi-fi hotspots in Iceland's cities and large towns. Rural and remote areas may have less internet access, so be prepared when traveling away from the city.

Most accommodation and eateries in Iceland offer wi-fi access, which is usually free to use with a code. If you wish to stay connected for the majority of your trip, it may be wise to purchase a prepaid SIM card with a data package.

Many Icelandic libraries and tourist information offices have shared computers for public internet access if you are without a device to connect to wi-fi. Sometimes a small fee is charged for this service.

Can I use my cell phone while in Iceland?

Travelers can use their cell phones in Iceland's main cities and towns, though remote and isolated areas may have inferior cell reception.

If you wish to stay connected for the majority of your trip, it may be wise to purchase a prepaid SIM card for the duration of your journey. This will likely be the cheapest way to use your phone in Iceland.

For EU citizens, depending on who you have your phone plan with, you may be able to use your current SIM in Iceland – your service provider will be able to provide more details.

Global roaming can also be activated, but check with your service provider to find out about any fees you may incur, as sometimes this can be expensive.

What are the toilets like in Iceland?

Modern, flushable toilets are the standard in Iceland.

In terms of public toilets, Reykjavik and other major towns and cities have some, but along highways and at many tourist destinations – especially campgrounds and natural attractions – there is a lack of facilities. Expect to pay a small fee when visiting public toilets and, in busy months, expect queues in main tourist areas.

There have been recent occurrences of tourists resorting to other means in remote places and near tourist sites. We recommend being prepared and talking to your group leader if you have any concerns.

What will it cost for a…?

Iceland's unit of currency is the krona. Here's what you can expect to pay for a:

  • Hotdog = ISK 400-600
  • Glass of beer = ISK 1,100-1,500
  • Simple lunch at a cafe = ISK 2,100-3.700
  • Dinner in a restaurant = ISK 2.600-4.200

Can I drink the water in Iceland?

Tap water is considered safe to drink in Iceland unless marked otherwise. For environmental reasons, try to avoid buying bottled water. Fill a reusable water bottle or canteen with filtered water instead.

Are credit cards widely accepted in Iceland?

Credit cards are widely accepted in Iceland and are used frequently by locals to pay for just about anything. Paying with a credit card at shops, guesthouses, supermarkets, restaurants, cafes, and on taxi rides shouldn't present a problem. Iceland is almost a cashless society, so cards are the best option; however, a lot of payments will require your four-digit PIN, so be sure to know this before you leave home.

What is ATM access like in Iceland?

ATMs are usually easy to find in Iceland's cities and villages and generally accept most foreign cards.

What public holidays are celebrated in Iceland?

  • 1 Jan: New Year's Day
  • Mar/Apr: Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Monday*
  • 1 May: Labur Day
  • May/Jun: Ascension Day*
  • May/Jun: Whit Sunday and Whit Monday*

What is the weather like in Iceland?

Iceland’s temperatures are cool and do vary throughout the year. In winter months, minimum temperatures plummet to below freezing. In Reykjavik, summer temperatures average at around 52°F  ( 11°C ), while winter maximums are approximately  32°F ( 0°C ). Rainfall is quite consistent throughout the year; between 1"-2" inches (25–50 mm) per month, with most days experiencing some rainfall.

Is it safe to travel to Iceland?

Iceland is a very safe country to travel to and is one of the safest countries in the world.

Is Iceland safe for LGBTQIA+ travellers?

The people of Iceland have an open and accepting attitude to LGBTQIA+ communities, and Iceland is considered one of the world’s most LGBTQIA+ friendly countries. Since 2006, same-sex couples have had equal access to adoption and IVF, and in 2010 the Icelandic Parliament made a unanimous decision to define marriage as between two individuals. As might be expected in a small country, however, the gay scene is quite low-key, even in Reykjavik.

In 2012, more legislation was passed to formalize the name and identity-changing process for the needs of trans and genderqueer individuals. There is still a way to go to achieve full equality, but Iceland is, in many regards, leading the way globally.

For more detailed and up-to-date advice, we recommend visiting Equaldex or ILGA before you travel and reading more about the LGBTQIA+ culture in Iceland .

If you are traveling solo on an Intrepid group tour, you will share accommodation with a passenger of the same gender as per your passport information. If you don’t identify with the gender assigned on your passport, please let us know at the time of booking and we’ll arrange the rooming configuration accordingly. A single supplement is available on some tours for travellers who do not wish to share a room.

Is Iceland accessible for travelers with disabilities?

Intrepid is committed to making travel widely accessible, regardless of ability or disability. That’s why we do our best to help as many people see the world as possible, regardless of any physical or mental limitations they might have. We’re always happy to talk to travelers with disabilities and see if we can help guide them towards the most suitable itinerary for their needs and, where possible, make reasonable adjustments to our itineraries.

Because of its remote location and size, Iceland can prove difficult when it comes to accessibility for individuals with mobility issues. Some of the main sights, such as the Blue Lagoon, are wheelchair accessible, but many of the natural attractions have unpaved paths and unsteady terrain. Iceland has a dedicated information center,  Thekkingarmidstod Sjalfsbjorg , that provides up-to-date information on accessibility and accessible facilities in Iceland, as well as other related information.

If you do live with a visual, hearing, or other impairment, let your booking agent or group leader know early on so they’re aware and suitable arrangements can be made. As a general rule, knowing some common words in the local language, carrying a written itinerary with you, and taking to the streets in a group, rather than solo, can help make your travel experience the best it can be.

What to wear in Iceland

In summer, Iceland experiences cool but mild weather throughout the country, with maximum temperatures averaging around 55°F. It’s still important, however, to pack some warm clothing at this time, as temperatures at night can drop quite dramatically. In winter, some days barely reach over 32°F, so preparing for this is crucial. It can be wet and windy, and roads may be iced over, so thermal gear, a waterproof jacket and pants and sturdy walking boots are all highly recommended.

Do I need to purchase travel insurance before traveling?

Absolutely. All passengers traveling with Intrepid are required to purchase travel insurance before the start of their trip. Your travel insurance details will be recorded by your leader on the first day of the trip. Due to the varying nature, availability and cost of health care around the world, travel insurance is very much an essential and necessary part of every journey.

How will I be traveling around Iceland?

Intrepid believes half the fun of experiencing a new country is getting there, and getting around once there! Where possible, Intrepid uses local transport options and traditional modes of transport – which usually have less of an environmental impact, support small local operators and are much more fun.

Depending on what trip you're on in Iceland, you may find yourself traveling by:

All-terrain Unimog

To see all of Iceland, you’ll need some heavy-duty transport. This super-sized van will take you on glacier visits to admire these almighty ice caps up close.

Amphibian boat

Part truck, part boat, all adventure ­– cruise the Jokulsarlon glacial lagoon in a small group aboard one of these vessels, on land and lake.

What is it like traveling on a small group tour?

Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or you’re about to embark on your first trip, traveling can be as intimidating as it is exciting. That's the beauty of a small group tour. From handling the logistics and organizing amazing cultural activities to local leaders who know each destination like the back of their hand (like which street has the best markets and where to get the most authentic food), traveling on a small group tour with Intrepid will give you unforgettable travel experiences without the hassle that comes with exploring a new place. Plus, you'll have ready-made friends to share the journey with. All you have to do is turn up with a healthy sense of adventure and we’ll take care of the rest.

Does my Intrepid trip include airfare?

While our Intrepid trips include many modes of transport, from tuk-tuks to overland vehicles, bullet trains and feluccas, airfare to and from your home country is not included in your tour package.

Does my trip support The Intrepid Foundation?

Yes, all Intrepid trips support the Intrepid Foundation. Trips to this country directly support our global Intrepid Foundation partners, Eden Reforestation Projects and World Bicycle Relief. Intrepid will double the impact by dollar-matching all post-trip donations made to The Intrepid Foundation.

Eden Reforestation Projects

Eden Reforestation Projects are helping to mitigate climate change by restoring forests worldwide; they also hire locally and create job opportunities within vulnerable communities. Donations from our trips support restoration across planting sites in 10 countries around the globe. Find out more or make a donation World Bicycle Relief

World Bicycle Relief provides people in low-income communities with bicycles to mobilize school kids, health workers, and farmers in far-out areas – giving them access to vital education, healthcare, and income. Donations help provide Buffalo Bicycles – specifically designed to withstand the rugged terrain and harsh environment of rural regions – to those who need them most. Find out more or make a donation

"Iceland is like nowhere else on the planet - the waterfalls, views and landscapes are absolutely stunning - and that's without even mentioning the Northern Lights"

John, Travel Director

Explore the quirky capital of Reykjavik

No guided tour of Iceland is complete without a visit to the most northern capital of the world, Reykjavik; a city small in size, but gregarious in style. Take in the creative intensity of the city’s people, which has flourished into a unique art and culinary scene that embraces Nordic culture and the avant-garde. All set amidst storybook gabled houses, jagged basalt rock and the sea.

Journey through Iceland's volcanic landscapes

For a land named after ice, it can be bewildering to find this country is also one of fire. Connect with this geothermal mecca of over 130 volcanic mountains by traversing raw moonscape lava fields, exposed black sand beaches and the fringes of volcanoes.

Admire the waterfalls Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss

Of the 10,000 plus waterfalls that can fill Iceland trips, Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss are two of the standouts. At Seljalandsfoss, water cascades off a cliff that was once part of Iceland’s coastline, flowing into pools surrounding lush green fields. At Skógafoss you will find an old-world majesty, with mythology speaking of trolls, elves and hidden pots of gold.

Swim in turquoise waters of the Blue Lagoon

The country’s iconic Blue Lagoon is a hot spring of milky blue waters, flooded with minerals from underground rock. Immerse yourself in its waters for a soul-stirring and relaxing experience complete with healing properties of the water. Don't forget to cover yourself in silica rich mud.

See the Northern Lights

Watching spirals and wafts of blue green lights dance over Iceland’s stars is a natural phenomenon that will stir you to the very core. Caused by solar wind disturbances in the magnetosphere, the Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, are most likely encountered in the months of late August through to April.

Our top 5 things to do in Iceland

Known for its natural phenomena, from geothermal activity and hot springs to light sky displays, Trafalgar will surprise you with another side of Iceland. Step into the country's Viking past, music traditions and cultural quirks.

National Museum of Iceland

In the centre of Reykjavik sits Iceland’s National museum – a brutalist building with an igloo shaped dome. Explore Viking weaponry, Norse mythology and Lion-Knight legends, then wander upstairs to gain an understanding of the fight for independence from Danish rule. This museum shares the unbelievable chronology of the island’s history.

Icelandic Phallological Museum

Located in Reyjavik, the Icelandic Phallological Museum contains the world's largest display of penises. The extensive collection includes 280 specimens from 93 animal species including whales and seals, and land animals ranging from bulls to hamsters.

Reykjavík Maritime Museum

An island nation wedged between the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans, fishing has always been a vital part of Iceland’s livelihood. Learn of a modern emergence through fishing and uncover artefacts of violent cod fish wars at the Reykjavik Maritime Museum - a chronicle of the Icelandic people’s seafaring ways.

Best museums in Iceland

Iceland’s extremist landscape ranges from volcanic fields of dried magma to jutting glaciers that spike like crystals. But the contours of its people are just as intriguing to explore. Nowhere do their stories unfold better than the varied museums we take you to in the capital of Reykjavik.

Smoked Puffin

Despite their fishing heritage, Icelanders take much of their cuisine from the land. The national bird of Iceland, the puffin, is one that historically saved its residents from starvation. Today, it is considered a local delicacy. Sample it for yourself accompanied by lashings of delicious blueberry sauce.

Icelandic hot dog

Hotdogs are abundant in Iceland, found at petrol stations, roadside stands, malls and ferry terminals. They are most often made of local, organic, grass-fed lamb as a result of meat import restrictions and a population of sheep that doubles that of humans. Eat yours topped with sweet brown mustard, remoulade, capers, herbs and raw onions.

For centuries, Hardfiskur has been a staple of Icelandic cuisine. This protein-rich snack is made by curing the bacteria of oily fish in the icy Atlantic air before pounding it soft with a mallet. See the fish hanging up to dry all over the island; an insight into traditional Nordic cooking processes.

Best food in Iceland

Much of Iceland’s fascinating food is steeped in the history of Viking times and woven with greater Nordic culture. Trafalgar will indulge you in many obscure delicacies from this self-sufficient country and our tours of Iceland start and end with a surprising local dish.

What to pack for Iceland

People packing for a tour

With rain falling an average of 213 days a year in Iceland, a raincoat is definetely an item you won't want to forget. A much needed extra layer for the subarctic climate, it will also provide protection from overzealous waterfalls.

Having a dry layer of warmth close to your skin is something to have handy for Iceland whether summer or winter. It’s especially helpful to have close for those for those who love to spend time outdoors exploring the country’s extreme landscapes.

Exposing your ears to the elements can send chills through your body - easily preventable with a warm pair of ear-muffs.

Icelanders take bathing very seriously. With more pools per capita than any country in the world, you may wish to take a few pairs of swimming costumes to ensure you always have one dry.

Your last few stops will be  Emstrur  and the lovely valley of  Thorsmork  at the foot of the  Eyjafjallajökull  and  Mýrdalsjökull  glaciers. After touring this area, it’s time to return to the starting point, Reykjavík.

Without a doubt, this  guided tour of Iceland  does one of the best hiking circuits around the island.

  • Dates : June-September
  • Highlights : Reykjavík and Highlands of Iceland (Landmannalaugar and Thorsmork)
  • Group size : 16 people max.
  • Age limit : 15-70

10. A la carte sightseeing tour , the best private tour of Iceland

Finally, if you’re looking for a private  Iceland tour that fully suits your interests, I recommend this   à la carte tour .

For an entire week, you will visit some of the most popular areas in Iceland. The tour guide can adjust the itinerary to meet your preferences, so you’ll only see the things you find interesting.

Small group tours of Iceland

10. A la carte sightseeing tour, the best private tour of Iceland

As with most multi-day guided tours of Iceland, you’ll start in  Reykjavík . As the country’s capital, it has plenty of cool sights and attractions. Then, you’ll travel south to  Vík  and see highlights like the  Reykjanes Peninsula, Geysir geothermal area ,  Jökulsárlón  glacial lake, and the  Snaefellsnes Peninsula .

This is one of the few  Iceland multi-day tours that you can totally personalize, all while getting the same advantages of a fully planned tour, such as an expert guide. It’s also the perfect choice for those who prefer not to drive but not to share the tour with other people they don’t know either.

  • Duration : 7 days
  • Highlights : Reykjavík, South Iceland, Reykjanes, Circle of Iceland, and Snaefellsnes
  • Group size : 4 people max.
  • Age limit : 3-99
  • Price : $4,810

Iceland vacation packages – prices and deals

All the Iceland package deals  that I’ve mentioned include accommodation, guides, and transportation from the start of the tour to the end.

The total Iceland vacation package costs don’t include flights from your home country to Keflavík International Airport and back home, nor transportation from the airport to Reykjavík, which is where all the tours start and end. Travel insurance and most meals are also not included.

We recommend that you take a look at our guide on  how to get cheap flights  as well as our article on the  best travel insurance  to save on your trip to Iceland. As for transportation from the airport to Reykjavík, you can book it  here . Moreover, I would budget about $60 a day for meals.

To recap, flights, travel insurance, meals, and airport transfer to Reykjavík are not included in these  vacation packages to Iceland .

To calculate the price of your flights, I recommend  Kiwi.com  or  Skyscanner.com  so you can find the best Iceland vacation packages with current prices. I also recommend  HeyMondo travel insurance , which is the one I’ve been using recently without any problems. We even have a 5% discount for our readers.

5 Day - Snaefellsnes, South Coast and Northern Lights

Nice tour. Highly recommend it! One of the 5 days we had a very nice toyr guide, Sindri Gunnarsson! Was the best day of the tour. He explained to the group history of Iceland, fun facts, taught us a master class in finance and banking of Iceland, but also about the music and entertainment. A complete day! Iceland is a beautiful country and definitely not overrated. Accommodations quite nice. Only improvement would be breakfasts that were included into the price. Quite poor selection in my opinion.

Linas, our guide, was outstanding! He would make any trip fun and exciting. Iceland was amazing. Tour Radar was super supportive.

Iceland Discovery Tour

Iceland Discovery

The tour was well designed - we saw a variety of places and enjoyed a wide range of activities. The van was a convenient means of transportation, but the seats in the back row were cramped, with less leg room than between the other rows, and on the long drives it became very uncomfortable. The accommodation was excellent in most places, with clean and airy rooms. Exception: the large guesthouse in Siglufjordur, where the standard of cleanliness was lower, and the faucet in our room sink was stiff and very hard to use. The food was fresh, healthy, and tasty in all places. Stefan was knowledgeable, helpful in all situations, responsive to our needs, and personable. He also announced and implemented seat rotation.

Was better than expected. The tour guide John was super helpful and did way beyond what we expected. Took care of all of us. I highly recommend Troll Expeditions for Iceland tour. It is definitely worth the cost, may be even cheaper than doing self tour. The different hotels we stayed for seven nights were of reasonable quality.

Wonderful trip with Johan our guide. The trip around the island was great, but I really enjoyed listening to Johan and him relating his stories of growing up in this isolated country. His family stories were what brought the tour to life. Our van was roomy and new giving everybody space to stretch out. I highly recommend this tour.

I had an amazing time on my vacation. The tours were great and got to see alot. Unfortunately didn’t get to go to the blue lagoon which was very disappointing. Also the first hotel was not great, no space at all for a “double occupancy” standard room. The breakfast was terrible too. But the second hotel was beautiful and amazing and I had no complaints! Great experience overall, I highly recommend!

It was a great time. Everything was easily followed and organized well. Only drawback was the weather, and not being able to see the northern lights during our time. All things considered, will definitely be going back to Iceland.

Reviews of Iceland Tours

I loved our late December tour. I would recommend it and would do it again. There are two things that I wished I had known before the trip. 1) Obviously the Northern Lights are difficult to predict. I didn't realize though that ratings for the intensity that, range from 0-9, that 1-3 which is most common are also not visible to the naked eye only the camera. So even though I technically "saw" the lights as my camera showed them, emotionally it doesn't feel like it. 2) Since the days are so short, there is a lot of chasing sunlight feeling. It wasn't bad, but it basically means that you have like 30 mins at a beach or waterfall before heading to the next destination. It felt like a photo scavenger hunt race. Walk briskly out to these beautiful views, snap a dozen rapid photos and selfies, then race back to the bus. Along these lines, the part that was poorly communicated, was that because we were racing the daylight, that we nearly always ended up grabbing a gas station lunch and eating in the bus. It is fine, but I wished I had known going in. When the tour description says lunch in "x" town, that is clearly the longer season description, when daylight lasts 12 hours, not 4. The glacier hike was the highlight of the trip. The ice cave is interesting, but the real excitement is walking in the blue ice crevasses on the glacier.
The Tour was amazing we had so much fun an visited so many places!! Our Guide Hjalti was the best Guide we could dream off! We couldn‘t do the whale watching necause of the bad weather but he thought about a backup plan to enjoy the day at a museum. Really a beautiful experience that I absolutly can recommend! I even more fell in love with Iceland! Thank you Hjalti for making this Tour the best of our lifetime!
I can't say enough good things about our Best of Iceland Tour. Gisli Anton Bjarnason was the best tour guide we've ever experienced! We thoroughly enjoyed our week!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT ICELAND LUXURY TOURS

What does an Iceland luxury vacation involve? Is Iceland safe to visit? Read on for answers to commonly asked questions about luxury travel in Iceland. Alternatively, find out how to make a booking , have a look at our FAQs , or learn about our Book With Confidence  flexible travel plan.

1. WHAT DOES A LUXURY TOUR INVOLVE?

When you book a luxury trip to Iceland, you get the best experiences, hotels and services included in the package price. Your luxury tour comes with private VIP airport transfers, stays in suites or deluxe rooms at premium hotels, and a private driver-guide to help you see Iceland from a local perspective.

Your private guide will know all the top attractions and hidden gems. They will share their insider knowledge and passion for Iceland with you, ensuring you have an authentic and personal experience.

Plus, Nordic Visitor can tailor your trip with experiential activities such as helicopter rides, spa treatments and super jeep expeditions. Whatever your tastes, we can craft a tailor-made itinerary to suit you.

2. IS ICELAND SAFE TO VISIT?

Iceland has been one of the best success stories in terms of handling the Covid-19 pandemic. The government implemented a rigorous policy of tracing, testing and isolating. Because of this, Iceland has had one of the lowest number of coronavirus cases in Europe.

You can keep on top of our  travel updates for Iceland and our other Northern European destinations to find out if you are eligible to visit. Additionally, discover what to expect on your trip with our travel safety advice  and plan your trip with confidence thanks to our flexible booking terms . 

It's good to note that Iceland has a strong healthcare system and one of the lowest crime rates in the world. Iceland ranks highly every year in the indexes for the safest, happiest and most peaceful countries . You’ll be made to feel welcome in Iceland. The locals are used to travellers and tend to be very friendly!

Iceland does have active volcanoes, but eruptions occur once every 4 years on average. The island also sees minor seismic activity, but noticeable earthquakes are rare and the Icelandic Met Office keeps a good eye on such issues.

If you come to Iceland on a Nordic Visitor tour, both your personal travel consultant and private guide will be locals. Rest assured they will stay on top of these matters, as well as changing weather reports, to keep you safe throughout your trip.

3. WHEN IS THE BEST TIME OF YEAR TO VISIT ICELAND?

The wonderful thing about Iceland holidays is that there is no “bad time” to go. Every season has its own charm, with most of the top sites available to visit year-round.

Explore Iceland in the summer (June to August) and you’ll get to experience the midnight sun phenomenon. The daylight hours are so long that you’ll have plenty of time to see the beautiful landscapes in all their glory. You can also venture into the highlands as the better weather means the roads will be open.

The shoulder months (May and September) are a great alternative if you want to enjoy fairly long daylight hours but with fewer visitors at this time of year. As summer is so popular, spring and autumn are ideal for travelling during slightly quieter periods.

Then there’s the winter (October to April), which offers a host of special activities – including hunting for the northern lights. You can also go ice caving and snowmobiling, or soak up the magical atmosphere of the festive period. And you can’t help but fall for Iceland’s snowy scenery and frozen waterfalls.

For a detailed look at your options, read our blog article on when you should visit Iceland .

4. WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO SEE THE NORTHERN LIGHTS?

The best time to see the northern lights in Iceland is during the winter, between October and April. That’s because, at this time of year, the nights are dark enough to see them dancing in the skies above.

For the best chance of viewing the lights, visit secluded areas away from the light pollution of the towns and cities, as darker conditions make it easier to spot them.

For more advice on the best times and places to see the northern lights in Iceland , read our experts’ blog.

5. HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU NEED TO VISIT ICELAND?

How long you stay in Iceland all depends on how much time you have to spare. There’s so much to experience in Iceland, with countless jaw-dropping natural wonders that must be seen to be believed. You could opt for an action-packed few days here, or stay longer and enjoy your tour at a slower pace.

For a quick introduction to Iceland, you’ll need a minimum of 4 or 5 days. Or for a more immersive trip, we recommend you spend at least a week here.

Our luxury Iceland packages have been crafted and tested by our local travel specialists to ensure a fulfilling visit every time. Look at the different options to see what suits you best – we can always customise a tour for you.

Check out our blog for inspiration on how many days to spend in Iceland .

6. WHAT IS THE PRICE RANGE FOR AN ICELAND LUXURY TOUR?

The price of your Iceland tour package depends on how long you plan to stay for, how many are in your party, and which activities you want to experience. You can find your price by choosing a luxury package on this page and selecting your dates.

While we can’t guarantee how much day-to-day costs will be, we can assure you that Nordic Visitor trips provide excellent value. Your luxury tour includes top hotel stays with a hearty breakfast, a private driver-guide, recommended activities and private VIP airport transfers.

If you’ve already got a tour but now need to change your dates, contact your travel consultant as soon as possible to rearrange your package.

11. WHEN SHOULD I ORGANISE MY FLIGHTS?

We recommend that you book your Nordic Visitor tour first to secure your preferred dates before buying your flights. Do search for flights in the meantime so you know what’s available, but wait to purchase them until after your travel consultant has confirmed your tour booking.

By securing your Iceland holiday first, you get introduced to your dedicated travel consultant and you will receive all of your tour details. This means you can make a more informed choice when reserving flights in and out of Iceland. If you have any questions you can always contact us for advice.

12. WHAT SHOULD I PACK FOR MY LUXURY TOUR?

Since Iceland’s weather is as changeable as its landscape, we highly recommend you pack for all conditions. If you visit in winter, make sure to bring plenty of warm layers for the cold temperatures. If you are coming in the summer, an eye mask will help you sleep during the light nights.

Here are our top recommendations on what to bring to Iceland:

  • A lightweight jacket
  • Wool sweater
  • Waterproof jacket and trousers
  • Sensible footwear with good grip
  • Gloves, scarves and thermal socks
  • A swimsuit and sandals
  • Sunscreen and insect repellent in the summer months
  • An insulated coat and thermal layers in the winter months

You also might want to bring smarter outfits for dining out in Reykjavík. A swimsuit is another key item if you want to go hot spring bathing in Iceland, especially at the luxurious Blue Lagoon Retreat. If you forget anything though, don’t worry. Your guide will help you find it here in Iceland!

Each subsequent evening, you can set out independently from your accommodation in the hope of witnessing a grand display, with your chances maximized when you're in the countryside.

While in this spectacular part of the country, you will explore a crystal blue ice cave, an adventure only possible at a few select places on Earth and under particular conditions.

Ice or glacier caves are spectacular places of vivid color and surreal light that all winter guests should see.

Other than aurora hunting and ice caving, an entrance package to the luxurious Blue Lagoon geothermal spa is included in your trip.

You also have the opportunity to add more exciting activities to your itinerary during the booking process, such as snorkeling, snowmobiling, and horseback riding.

Attractions

Enjoy the soothing warm water in Iceland's most famous attraction, the Blue Lagoon

Daily itinerary

Day 1 - Blue Lagoon & Northern Lights

On the first day of your short winter getaway in Iceland, you will land at the country's biggest airport, Keflavik International Airport (KEF). After making your way through customs, you'll find your bus transfer waiting to take you to your accommodation in Reykjavik.

On your way to Iceland's capital city, Reykjavik, you can stop at the Blue Lagoon geothermal spa. This world-renowned spa is known for its healing waters, vivid azure colors, and luxurious treatments.

It is in the middle of a moss-covered lava field, giving it an otherworldly atmosphere.

Adding the Blue Lagoon geothermal spa to your itinerary will be arranged according to your flights. If there is no time to visit the lagoon today, it can be added to another day. Your travel consultant will be able to arrange this for you.

There is plenty to see and do in Reykjavik if you have extra free time.

Once you reach your hotel in the capital, you may have time to explore before your northern lights tour and can check out the local architecture, public art, museums, and boutiques.

When evening falls, you will set out to hunt the aurora borealis on one of two unique adventures.

Firstly, you could embark on a bus tour that will take you out into the dark nature around the capital in any direction the sky is clear. You can marvel over the northern lights surrounded by spectacular landscapes.

Alternatively, you could head out from the harbor into the beautiful Faxafloi Bay. You will have minimal light pollution on the still waters, surrounded by the silhouettes of distant mountains and volcanoes, providing conditions for the perfect show.

If you don't see the northern lights on your first night, you may try again until you do.

After a successful northern lights hunting trip, you'll retire at your accommodation in Reykjavik.

Day 2 - The Golden Circle

On the second day of your winter vacation in Iceland, you will explore the sights of the Golden Circle sightseeing route. This route includes three of Iceland's most iconic attractions, and as you travel around them, you'll have exciting excursions to add to your day.

The first major attraction of the Golden Circle sightseeing route is the Thingvellir National Park, the first UNESCO World Heritage site of mainland Iceland.

Though it has received recognition due to its fascinating role in developing democracy, it is also a place of incredible natural beauty and geological wonder.

The Thingvellir National Park has dramatic ravines, sparkling springs, and abundant woodland directly between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.

The second sight you will visit is Strokkur, an active geyser in the Geysir geothermal area. Guests can marvel every five to 10 minutes as it ejects water to heights that reach up to 131 feet (40 meters).

There is plenty to admire between eruptions in the geothermal valley, with many other bubbling hot springs and steaming vents.

Finally, you will visit one of the most magnificent waterfalls in Iceland, the Gullfoss waterfall. Thundering with such power that it barely freezes over in winter, it pours down two steps into a magnificent canyon along the Hvita River.

If you want to add an extra sense of adventure to today, you can take a snowmobiling tour from Gullfoss waterfall, which will take you flying across the gleaming slopes of Langjokull glacier.

Alternatively, you could take a countryside horseback ride through the beautiful nature of Southwest Iceland, tailored to both novices and experts.

Another choice is to embark on a winter snorkeling tour in the Silfra ravine in the Thingvellir National Park. Protected by a drysuit, you'll be led through a crystal clear spring, able to see deep through the vividly blue waters. Snorkeling participants need to be comfortable in the water and able to swim.

After a day of breathtaking sightseeing and unforgettable adventure, you'll return to your hotel in Reykjavik. If you still have the energy, seek out the city's dark spaces to hunt for the northern lights, or check out one of the acclaimed restaurants or bars.

Day 3 - South Iceland & Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon

You'll traverse the spectacular South Coast on the third day of your Iceland winter vacation. This journey will introduce you to incredible, ever-changing landscapes, glittering seascapes, and some of this island's most stunning attractions.

After being picked up in the morning, the first natural wonder to see is Seljalandsfoss waterfall. This narrow cascade pours off a great cliff facing the ocean before a vast cavern, allowing visitors to admire it from unique perspectives.

Continuing along the South Coast, you will get glimpses of the glaciers of Eyjafjallajokull and Myrdalsjokull, which conceal notorious volcanoes.

The next major attraction, however, is a second waterfall, the much more powerful Skogafoss waterfall. Not only is this a spectacular natural feature, but it has fascinating associated folklore and is said to conceal the treasure chest of a giant.

Next, you will come to Reynisfjara beach. This stretch of coast is stunning and ominous, with its black volcanic sands and enormous waves, earning international recognition as one of the world's most beautiful non-tropical beaches.

The geology here is also breathtaking, with the great sea stacks of Reynisdrangar and the distant rock arch of Dyrholaey.

After stopping for refreshments at the nearby village of Vik, you'll continue eastward, and tongues of the largest glacier in Europe, Vatnajokull Glacier, will dominate the scenery.

When stopping at the spectacular Skaftafell Nature Reserve, a paradise for hikers and photographers, you'll get close to one.

On your short trek here, you'll also see the beautiful Svartifoss waterfall, which tumbles down a cliff with hexagonal basalt columns.

Finally, you will reach Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon, 'the Crown Jewel of Iceland's Nature.' This vast glacier lagoon is filled with icebergs of vivid blue and gleaming white, which tower as tall as multistorey buildings.

Guests are welcome to walk along the shoreline and marvel at them as they rotate, groan, and break apart on their long journey to the ocean.

When they finally make their way through a narrow channel from the lagoon to the sea, they wash onto the shores of the adjacent black sand shoreline, Diamond Beach. The contrasts between the ice and sand are mesmerizing, particularly in the evening light.

If you are lucky, you'll see the aurora borealis over one of these magnificent attractions before heading to your nearby countryside hotel.

Day 4 - Crystal Ice Cave under the Largest Glacier of Europe

On the penultimate day of your Iceland winter getaway, you will enjoy the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to explore a crystal blue ice cave.

You will set out early with your guide to a remote area of Vatnajokull glacier, be dressed in all the necessary safety gear, and then follow them into one of the world’s most spectacular places.

Vatnajokull glacier is the largest glacier in Europe, covering approximately 10% of Iceland’s landmass. This massive glacier is known for its stunning ice formations, deep crevasses, and dramatic glacial landscapes.

The way light penetrates the caves, the vividness of the blues, and the spectacular textures and formations that nature has carved are so mesmerizing that they appear otherworldly. No two ice caves are the same as they melt and freeze with the passing seasons.

You will have plenty of time to explore and take photographs as your guide tells you how they were formed and other fascinating facts about the glaciers. You can also ask them questions if you’re curious about the cave’s structure.

After this unforgettable exploration, you’ll begin your return journey along the South Coast. Your journey will provide a new perspective on the fantastic sights you marveled over the day before, and you will make several stops to see some attractions under different conditions.

The sky will likely fall dark before you get back to the city, allowing you to have a chance to see the northern lights in the winter skies. Keep an eye out the window of your minibus in the hope of catching another display of the magnificent aurora borealis.

Once you get back to Reykjavik, you can either continue your hunt by heading to one of the many natural spaces in the city or enjoy the lively nightlife of the world’s northernmost capital.

The city comes to life at night with charming bars and pubs downtown.

Day 5 - Departure

Today is the final day of your winter vacation in Iceland. 

If you have a late departure, this is an excellent opportunity to immerse yourself in Reykjavik. Iceland's culture is as fascinating as its nature is beautiful, and there are many things to do that will appeal to all guests.

The restaurants are internationally acclaimed, the museums are fascinating, the architecture is beautiful, and the streets are quirky and inviting. The city has even more charm during winter, becoming a festive wonderland.

When sharing your unforgettable trip moments on social media, capturing photos of Reykjavik's iconic cultural attractions is a must. The downtown area of Reykjavik is brimming with these popular sites.

One of the city's renowned landmarks is the Hallgrimskirkja church, considered the most beautiful in Iceland.

Its architectural style draws inspiration from the basalt lava flows found throughout Iceland's landscape, remarkably resembling the cliffs of the Svartifoss waterfall in the Vatnajokull National Park.

The church's tower soars to an impressive height of around 74.5 meters (244 feet) and offers an excellent vantage point for a panoramic view of the city and its surrounding landscapes.

The church boasts impressive features such as high ceilings, clean lines, and a minimalist design.

For those who have a later flight and choose to visit the Blue Lagoon geothermal spa today, you will finish your stay unwinding before heading to the airport.

The Blue Lagoon geothermal spa is the perfect place to relax as you bathe in the warm, mineral-rich waters while looking back on the incredible adventure you have just taken in the land of fire and ice.

Get to Keflavik International Airport early to drop off your luggage and check in for your flight.

This Iceland tour will give you the best possible experience.    

Iceland has something unique to offer at any time of year. Here are these tour's seasonal extras:    

From late August until April, search for the magical  Northern Lights dance across the sky. From October 11 to April, we replace the glacier hike with a thrilling journey through the Crystal Ice Cave .    

In summer, the  Arctic midnight  sun  reigns supreme, and puffins are often spotted along the coastline, so we make time to enjoy these. We could be lucky enough to cross paths with reindeer in the East. In September, there is often time to go to a sheep round-up somewhere in the countryside - learn how real farming people do things.  

Here you can find a detailed list of information about everything you need to know about this tour: 6 Days Around Iceland Adventure Guide

Day 1: Golden Circle and South Coast

Please be ready at your pick-up location in Reykjavík at 08:00 am. The pick-up process takes up to 30 minutes, so you may have to wait a few minutes, depending on where you are in Reykjavik. The first day of this round trip is mainly focused on exploring the attractions of the famous Golden Circle .    

We visit Þingvellir National Park , recognized as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO for its geological and historical significance. Here, the Icelanders founded their historic Parliament in 930 CE, Alþingið, one of the first democratic governments in the world. The Law Speaker had one of the most dramatic ‘platforms’ in the world to proclaim the law. The cliff of the mighty rift valley stood at his back. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge runs right through Þingvellir. The Eurasian and North American tectonic plates continue to edge apart, slowly widening the rift valley. The Geysir hot spring area will be our next destination.

Geysir is the spouting hot spring that gave its name to this phenomenon when the English word ‘geyser’ was adopted. Watch the Strokkur hot spring erupt with incredible jets of hot water and steam every few minutes and see the bubbling fumaroles. The mighty Gullfoss waterfall is the final Golden Circle attraction. See the dreamy golden-hued mist rising from the spray as the Hvítá (the White River) pours down from Langjökull (the Long Glacier) roaring through the rugged canyon. Gullfoss drops 32 m in two stages.

iceland hotel and tour packages

On the way to our accommodation at a country hotel near Kirkjubæjarklaustur, we will visit both Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls. Seljalandsfoss is a very unusual waterfall because it is possible to walk behind the cascade, giving a unique vantage point.

We explore the atmospheric  Reynisfjara  black sand beach with the glorious  Reynisdrangar  peaks and visit the basalt column cave.

After you stop at your hotel for the night, from September through April, you can go out searching for the Northern Lights with the help of your guide if the forecast is in your favor.

We pass the great Mýrdalsjökull glacier, which houses one of the most famous and feared volcanoes beneath its ice, the capricious Katla . You will get a glimpse of the great fire maestro in good visibility! Witness the results of previous volcanic eruptions as we drive across the Eldhraun lava field to Skaftafell in Vatnajökull National Park . Skaftafell is a true oasis with green birch forests and lush vegetation, a verdant jewel amid the rough black sand desert.

Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon full of icebergs

Next on the agenda is the famous Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon . Gaze in wonder at the magical iceberg-filled lagoon and see the famous Diamond Beach , its coal-black sands peppered with the glittering crystal, blue/white icebergs which have been washed ashore.

We then explore the mystical landscapes around the lake at Mývatn . From here, it just gets more surreal – we head to the steaming lunar landscapes of the Námaskarð geothermal area. See boiling hot springs, steaming fumaroles, and technicolor bubbling mud pots. The wonders continue when we visit the  fantastic Dimmuborgir formations, known as the Dark Castles!

On this, our final day, we will find ourselves in West Iceland – an area which Lonely Planet voted as one of the best destinations in 2016.

Borgarfjörður has many splendid sights, and we will focus on these today. We stop at Deildartunguhver hot spring, the legendary waterfall, Barnafoss (the Children´s Waterfall), and the Hraunfossar cascade, the atmospheric very low and wide falls where the water emerges, literally straight out of the lava field.

Attractions Map

If we arrive in iceland on the same date as we booked our tour, could we miss out on it.

We always recommend booking a multi-day tour starting at least one day after arriving in Iceland. If you’re flying in from the US or will be landing early (4-6:30 am) you should be able to join the tour, but some risks would follow (i.e if the flight gets delayed) and could, therefore, miss out on the tour.

Is it guaranteed that we will see the Northern Lights during the tour?

Most of the hotels we use during our tours are remotely located and therefore ideal for spotting the northern lights. If the forecast is in your favor, then it is more than likely that you will be able to see the magical show put on by the dancing northern lights during your tour with us. Most of the hotels offer a Northern Lights wake-up call-up on request if the lights are spotted.

The Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon; therefore, we can unfortunately never promise they will be seen. Their appearance depends upon atmospheric and weather conditions. The best time to see them is between September and March when it’s dark and clear. The sky needs to be as dark as possible, so the best places to see them are well away from city lights (that’s where we are going!). For more information on the Northern Lights, please look at our blog about   Northern Lights .

I'm not sure I have all suitable gear, do you offer any for rent?

If you are not sure that you have suitable gear for your tour, we offer some necessary items for rent. For most of our multi-day tours, we rent out waterproof jackets and pants as well as hiking boots. You can book these items and more under the selection “Extras” in the booking widget when booking your tour on our website.

If you have already booked the tour and wish to add some rental gear to your booking, you can do so at least 24 hours prior to your tour starting by using our customer portal - My Adventures , or contacting our customer care .

What will the average driving per day be?

We drive on average around 300 km (186 miles) per day on our multi-day tours. You will be spending approximately 4-5 hours in the car each day. We do of course stop on multiple locations throughout the tour for sightseeing, activities, bathroom breaks and lunch stops.

Does this tour suit me?

We do welcome participants of all ages older than the listed minimum age for each tour. We have people of ages ranging from 8-99 years joining our multi-day tours.  Our average group usually consists of participants between the age 20-55 years. We do get a lot of solo travellers joining our tours, as well as families and friends.

If you have difficulties participating in any of the activities included in the tour, for example, a glacier activity, you are more than welcome to skip it. You can explore your surroundings in the meantime or wait elsewhere. Our guide should be able to drop you off at a nearby place where there are some services available.

What is my luggage allowance on a multi-day tour?

For multi-day tours, each participant is allowed to bring a small backpack and 1 piece of luggage weighing a maximum of 20 kg (44 lbs). If you have more or heavier luggage with you, you will need to book storage for the surplus luggage before you arrive, there is a small fee for using this facility. Luggage storage in Reykjavík can be added during the booking process of your order in the extras section.

* The combined dimensions of each bag must not exceed 158 cm (62 in).

Which type of meal options are available for me on the tour?

Breakfast is included at all the hotels we stay in during the tour. The breakfast will be a typical breakfast buffet, offering bread, toppings, cereal, yogurt, fruits, coffee, and tea etc.

Your guide will also find a good place for the group to eat lunch. We always try to choose places that have a wide selection of dishes on the menu, so there will be options available for everyone. The dinner is usually at the hotels we stay at for the night.

Are meals included in the tour?

If your tour includes accommodation, breakfast is always included during the tour at the hotel/guesthouse restaurant.

Meals and beverages are otherwise not included on your tour. (Unless it’s specifically stated in the description of the tour)

On our multi-day tours, we will be making stops at restaurants and convenience stores where you will be able to purchase all necessities. Cash is not necessary, as credit cards are almost always accepted. Having a small amount of cash doesn’t hurt though.

I'm a solo traveller, is there a single supplement?

A single supplement is available if you want to have your own room, but you are not required to pay a single supplement. If you are a single traveler and do not wish to book a single room, you’ll be roomed with another traveler of the same gender.

What kind of rooms can be expected when booking the multi-day tour with Arctic Adventures?

When booking with Arctic Adventures, you are guaranteed an accommodation at a nice country hotel and/or a guesthouse. The hotels we have partnered up with are all of the same standard and offer nice rooms with made-up beds. The rooms come with private or shared bathrooms, depending on your booking. The standard room is a twin room but it’s possible to request a double room or a triple room, with no extra charge.

If you are traveling solo, you will have to add the single room fee if you wish to have a single room.

All hotels have free Wi-Fi. Towels, a hairdryer and a kettle are accessible at all of the hotels. Hotel breakfast is included!
