What people love about Iceland Tours in April
- Best of Iceland
Great tour! Iceland is a beautiful country.
- 10 Days Complete Iceland Summer | Ring-Road, Snæfellsnes Peninsula & Roundtrip airport transfer (Group Tour)
Marina travel was amazing with responses to questions. They helped me get the perfect trip doing exactly what I wanted to do in Iceland. They made easy to book and make changes. Only issue was that the hotel I booked in for first and last night was not a very good hotel as it was cold, small and barely room to bring my luggage and myself. I also could not do anything my first day as I was stuck with my luggage until later afternoon when I finally was able to get into my hotel. I felt I could have had a full extra day to do things suggested if I did not have to keep my luggage with me all day. I sat in a hotel lobby for over 5 hours waiting to get booked into my room. Next time I would just book the 8 day tour and find my own accommodations in Iceland for first and last night there. My tour guide, Hinrik was amazing! He was very informative, helpful, supportive, funny, friendly, open and very easy to talk too. Hinrik really made the group feel like a family and we all were able to connect with each other even though we were all very different people. The encouragement from the guide and the group was amazing to do all the activities! It was my first solo trip and this group made it more then I could have imaged. I honestly do not think the 8 day tour around the island could have been more perfect. I learned so much about Iceland, saw everything I wanted too and so much more. And now I have some amazing new friends that I cannot wait to go visit, as we still connect even now that we have returned to our own countries.
- 8 Days Self-drive | Around Iceland Ring Road Tour
Our 8 Day Self Drive Ring Road Tour was a lot of fun. Iceland was beautiful. We very much enjoyed driving around the pristine country. The wild flowers, waterfalls, glaciers, and beaches were amazing. The itinerary was well laid out with lots to see and plenty of time to see it. The hotel accommodations and breakfasts were very nice. My only regret is that I should have booked a longer tour instead of the eight day one.
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."
