Itinerary
- Day 1
Reykjavik
You'll land in Reykjavik with volcanic peaks and ocean views framing the city. Start by getting oriented and deciding what calls to you first. The National Museum works well for understanding Iceland's Viking roots, or you can head straight to Laugardalslaug Geothermal Pool to relax with locals in naturally heated water. Later this evening, meet your group over dinner and settle in.

Golden Circle to Hvolsvollur Valley
Leave Reykjavik early to tackle the Golden Circle route. You'll see Thingvellir National Park where Iceland's first parliament was established, plus the Silfra fissure where tectonic plates are pulling apart. The Strokkur geyser shoots water about 100 feet up regularly, then you'll check out the powerful Gullfoss Waterfall. Finish the day at a farm guesthouse in Hvolsvollur Valley, where clear skies might bring Northern Lights sightings.

South Coast to Jokulsarlon
Morning takes you to Skogafoss waterfall, which rises about 200 feet high. Climb the stairs for viewpoint access where rainbows sometimes appear in the mist on sunny days. Continue down the South Shore to see Reynisdrangar rock formations, Dyrholaey promontory, and Reynisfjara's black sand beach. This afternoon, head to Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon to watch icebergs floating in the water. You'll stay at a farm on the South Coast with another chance for Northern Lights if conditions cooperate.

Vatnajokull Glacier to Vik
You've got flexibility today. One option involves hiking on Vatnajokull, Europe's largest ice cap, which holds roughly 30 glaciers (though it's retreating due to climate change). Alternatively, walk to a glacier tongue or return to Jokulsarlon or Fjallsarlon glacial lagoons. If you prefer something calmer, explore the farm property or visit the Thorbergur Centre. Later, you'll head to Vik, the country's southernmost settlement on the mainland, positioned between dramatic cliffs and the sea.
