What people love about Iceland Tours in April
- 5 Day - Snæfellsnes & South Coast
The trip was beyond expectation. Iceland is a very beautifull country. Our guides were superb as well as the accommodation. The bus was a little bit small. We are tall and didn't have much legspace.
- 5 Days Land of Northern Lights
We had a wonderful time in Iceland! The tour was well organised and covered the beautiful and interesting places in Iceland. Over the 3 days tour we felt that we had gone to so many places. Our guide, Simone de Greef, was simply superb. Very informative and knowledgable and always eager to make our holiday in Iceland a wonderful experience. She is jovial and energetic person with a great sense of humour. We took the upgraded hotels. The Stracta Hotel in Hella is a lovely place to stay while Hotel Klettur in Reykjavic is pretty basic. We managed to spot the Northern Light while in Hella on our last night there. Such a blessing indeed. The much anticipated light brought us closer as each one of us in our small group of 8 people was really looking forward to it. We also opted for the optional Glacier Walk and it was all worth it. Such an adventure to scale up the glacier mountain and stomping our feet on the slippery icy terrain. The view is simply breathtaking. Overall it was a wonderful tour.
- 8 Days Northern Lights Exploration
The tour was excellent, we saw all of the highlights. The pace was very good, we saw a lot but it was not overwhelming and not boring. Our guide was outstanding. He kept us informed and shared information about the history, geography, and folk stories of the country.
What our customers ask about Iceland Tours in April 2026
What are the must-see attractions in Iceland during April?
April provides an ideal balance for seeing Iceland's natural wonders. The Golden Circle route includes three essential stops: Thingvellir National Park with its tectonic rifts Geysir's bubbling hot springs and the powerful Gullfoss waterfall. Along the South Coast dramatic waterfalls like Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss offer excellent photo opportunities with fewer tourists than peak season. The Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon where blue icebergs float serenely is particularly photogenic in April's clear light. A TourRadar traveler noted: "We got to see the ice caves waterfalls and even caught the Northern Lights in early April - the timing was perfect for experiencing all of Iceland's highlights without summer crowds."
Can you still see the Northern Lights in Iceland during April?
The Northern Lights remain visible in April though viewing opportunities become more limited as days grow longer. For the best chances head away from Reykjavik's light pollution to darker locations such as Kirkjubaejarklaustur or Höfn. Clear skies and patience are essential for spotting the aurora. A TourRadar traveler shares: "We were lucky to catch the aurora near Hotel Höfn during our April trip - the skies were still dark enough after 9 PM."
How many hours of daylight are there in Iceland during April?
Daylight hours in April increase dramatically starting at 13 hours early in the month and reaching nearly 16 hours by month's end. This extended daylight provides ample time to explore outdoor attractions like Thingvellir National Park and the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon without rushing. A TourRadar customer notes: "The extended daylight allowed us to fit in more sightseeing especially around the Golden Circle."
What special activities are available in Iceland during April?
April's unique conditions allow for diverse activities including guided tours of the Katla Ice Cave whale watching expeditions from Akureyri harbor and glacier hikes at Sólheimajökull. The Vatnshellir cave near Snæfellsnes Peninsula offers underground exploration while late-season Northern Lights viewing remains possible. A TourRadar traveler noted: "The glacier hike gives you amazing scenery through crevasses and jagged ridges incredible surroundings around the glacier and get up close with the blue ice."
What are the best activities to do in Iceland during April?
The moderate temperatures of April create perfect conditions for glacier hiking at Sólheimajökull ice cave exploration near Vatnajökull and visits to Golden Circle landmarks including Gullfoss and Geysir. Using Reykjavik's Fosshotel Baron as a base enables easy access to day trips throughout the region. According to TourRadar reviews: "April was perfect for combining ice cave tours with waterfall visits - we had Skógafoss almost to ourselves in the morning."
What wildlife can be seen in Iceland during April?
April marks the return of various migratory birds while seals frequent the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon and whales begin their seasonal migration. The Snæfellsnes Peninsula offers excellent spots for bird enthusiasts to observe native and migrating species. One TourRadar traveler shares: "We saw plenty of seals at Diamond Beach and the first puffins arriving at Dyrhólaey in mid-April."
