What We’re Doing in Iceland
Our adventure begins in Reykjavík, where we'll kick off the trip with welcome drinks overlooking the harbor followed by a group dinner featuring some of Iceland's finest seafood. Visiting during the magical summer solstice, we'll make the most of Iceland's endless daylight as we ease into Icelandic culture with a visit to the Sky Lagoon, one of the country's most beautiful geothermal spas, before exploring Reykjavík on a guided walking food tour with a local foodie.
From Reykjavík, we'll travel through some of Iceland's most iconic natural wonders, stopping at the stunning Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls before arriving at our next hotel. As we continue east, we'll visit the famous black sand beaches of Vík, admire the breathtaking Dyrhólaey cliffs, and take in the incredible scenery that makes Iceland so unique.
Our final days are all about immersing ourselves in Iceland's glacier country while enjoying a balance of adventure and relaxation. Guests can choose from optional glacier hikes or spending time unwinding at the hotel followed by a hike to the dramatic Múlagljúfur Canyon with its panoramic mountain and glacier views.
