About This Trip

Explore a land like no other. Experience the raw power of nature in this country driven by volcanic power, where mighty forces are still at work. Geysers explode from the ground, mud pools bubble and steam and enormous glaciers slowly trundle through jagged mountainscapes. 

 

There is genuinely nowhere on earth like Iceland. Its incredible natural landscapes and eerily beautiful tranquillity have given birth to a culture that is instantly accessible and glorious in every way. Friendly locals, everyone who seems to have the soul of a poet or artist can be found everywhere in this land. With a delightful sense of humour, and a heartfelt friendliness you will instantly fall into the easy-going pace of Icelandic life. 

 

The natural beauty of Iceland is the real focus of this trip and we have unearthed some stunning and very unique accommodations to beautifully compliment it. From days spent exploring some of the world’s most aesthetically pleasing waterfalls, to evenings spent on world-class organic farms where the farm-to-plate dining is executed with joyful precision. From submerging yourself in natural geothermal pools to spending evenings drinking sundowners as the sun sets over lunar landscapes. Iceland will charm you beyond measure and you will take the idea of þetta reddast (everything will work out fine) home with you forever.

Other Info
highlights

There is no doubt about the spectacle of Iceland. It simply is one of the most incredible natural landscapes in the world and to be honest the problem with putting together a trip here is just what to put in. There are so many breathtaking sites here that we had to carefully weave this trip together, matching geothermal wonder with the finest in unique hotels and guesthouses to really make this trip sing. 

 

While the properties that we have selected are outstanding, it is often the hosts that will stick in your memory. Another great Icelandic philosophy is Ekki Hugsa, the idea that you should just be yourself and your hosts will invariably be living examples of this. Friendly, unbelievably welcoming and dedicated to creating a memorable stay, you will enjoy every second of your stays right across Iceland. 


location

The trip kicks off in the bohemian capital city of Reykjavik. From here you head out to Þingvellir National Park to start your trip around the wild nature of Iceland. Next up is Vik situated between dramatic waterfalls and incredible geysir hot springs, then to Vatnajökull National Park, Höfn, Djúpivogur, Hengifoss, Egilsstaðir, Akureyri, Dalvík, Tröllaskagi and Laugarbakki all packed with at least one natural wonder to inspire and amaze. After this exploration of the north and west coast, you return to Reykjavik where you will spend another night before being taken back to the airport to take your onward journey.
