Day 1 - Keflavik
Your Iceland adventure begins the moment you touch down at Keflavik airport. Our friendly guide will be there to greet you and whisk you away to the world-famous Blue Lagoon.
After a dip, you’ll be transferred to your cosy hotel in Reykjavik and we can explore the city in the evening – as it will only get dark for about 2 hours a day!

Kick-start your day with a short Reykjavik city tour, exploring iconic spots like the old harbor, city center, and the stunning Hallgrimskirkja church
Then we continue to Þingvellir (Parliament Plaines), the location of the old parliament and a geological phenomenon.
From there we drive to the Geysir geothermal area for a spouting geyser and to Gullfoss, the Golden Waterfall, where on a sunny day you can see a rainbow in the spray above the waterfall.
Your day ends with an overnight stay in the incredible cute Hotel Hestheimar situated on the Golden Circle.

We’ll kick start the day driving through the beautiful scenery of Iceland’s South Shore and chase some waterfalls at Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss, stroll along the stunning black sand beach, and take in the views of Reynisdrangar rocks.
We’ll continue the adventure driving to the village of Vik to end up at the Glacier Lagoon for a stunning boat ride between the Icebergs.
We spend the night at Guesthouse Gerdi, a few KM away from the famous Jökulsarlón Glacier Lagoon and walking ditance from the coast.
Day 4 - Glacial Lagoon – Hella

Today, we’re in for a cool adventure on the Reykjanes Peninsula, where the Mid-Atlantic Ridge makes a dramatic appearance right out of the ocean. We’ll kick things off with a visit to the mud pools and hot springs, then cruise through the village of Grindavik. We’ll then get to see the iconic “Bridge Between the Continents”.
Then we head for the lighthouse on the westernmost tip of the peninsula with rich bird life in the summer.

If accepted, you will receive an email and have 5 days to pay the 500 euro deposit. The balance will be due 6 weeks before the trip start date. Payment in instalments is an option if you desire
Refund policy:
Your deposit, in theory, is non-refundable. As the tour company requires it to book all the hotels etc. However if I can find someone to take your place, I’ll refund you in full, minus bank charges.
For the balance of your payment, the tour company can refund this up to 6 weeks before the trip should you have an emergency/illness / need to cancel. Anything closer than 6 weeks, and they cannot refund you. However, again, if I can find someone last minute to fill your spot, then yes you get your money back. Case by case basis.
I suggest you take out travel insurance that covers trip cancellations, that way should something awful happen like you get Covid, you will get a full payout from your insurance company.
*All rooms on all trips are shared. We will partner you with an adventure buddy – an amazing way to make new friends!
