Icelandic Adventure
We love...
Photographing the awe-inspiring Vatnajökull Glacier. It’s the world’s third-largest ice cap and some 1,000 metres thick.
Glaciers to geysers, waterfalls to woodlands, Reykjavík and back. Join us as we circle this remarkable island nation, beginning and ending in its charming capital. Our Iceland tours take in the strange geothermal landscape of Námaskarð, bubbling with sulphuric mud springs, and the epic beauty of the enormous Vatnajokull glacier and the surrounding Vatnajokull National Park. At Thingvellir we stand, thrillingly, at the exact point where two tectonic plates meet. There's also time to tour Reykjavík, with its cosy cafes, mountain views and striking concert hall.

Day 2 - Akureyri
We head to Borgarfjordur this morning, renowned for some of the best salmon fishing rivers in the world. We cross the Holtavorduheidi Plateau and travel through the village of Blonduos, situated at the estuary of a glacial river, to Skagafjordur. We’ll visit the beautifully preserved Glaumbær Old Turf Farm, the farmhouse of which is built of turf, stones and timber, and is said to have stood since the Age of the Settlements (900 AD). The farm is a protected site owned by the National Museum of Iceland – we’ll have a look inside to get a glimpse of what life was like here back in the 18th and 19th centuries. We continue to Akureyri, gateway to the rich natural splendour of northeast Iceland.

Just a stone’s throw from the Arctic Circle is Akureyri, Iceland’s second largest city. Overlooked by snow-capped mountains and surrounded by rich fertile soil, its tree-lined streets and well-tended gardens are a delight. We take a short sightseeing tour of the city before we make our way to pretty Húsavík. We’ll continue to the mountainous Tjornes Peninsula, indented with short valleys and gorges, and then Asbyrgi, home to a spectacular horseshoe-shaped canyon.

Day 4 - Lake Mývatn - Dettifoss - Egilsstaðir
Our first stop today is the impressive Goðafoss waterfall; then we’ll continue to the Lake Mývatn area - famed for its lava fields, volcanoes and underground caves running with geothermal water. Stop at Namaskard to view its dramatic steam jets and boiling sulphur pits and then Dettifoss, to marvel at one of the mightiest waterfalls in Europe. We then travel through part of the interior highland plateau to the beautiful town of Egilsstaðir. Located on the eastern bank of the Lagarfljot River, it’s perfect for meandering through the fjords and visiting the small communities that are dotted about.

Hotel Hofn (3-star)
Day 6 - Kirkjubaejarklaustur
Our glacier trail adventure continues along the coast to Jokulsarlon, home to Iceland’s largest lagoons. In Vatnajokull National Park, set beneath the towering Oraefajokull, Iceland’s highest peak at 2,109m, the timeless landscape defines magnificence. The scenery here is theatrical, from glistening glaciers and shining lakes to woodlands ringing to the song of numerous birds and carpeted with more than 200 species of flowering plants.

We head to Reynishverfi or Dyrholaey headland, a birdwatcher’s haven (closed to the public during the nesting season, from 1 May to 25 June). We journey across vast stretches of sand formed by glacial rivers and over the vast Eldhraun lava fields to Skogar, which means ‘woodland’. We’ll visit the fascinating Folk Museum before continuing eastwards, we pass the Skogarfoss and Seljalandsfoss waterfalls and arrive later at Hveragerdi.

Day 8 - Gullfoss - Reykjavik
The thermal area of Great Geysir dazzles, especially its hot spring, the Strokkur, also known as ‘The Churn’, which erupts every 10 minutes or so, sending up a column of boiling water to a height of 30m. The rest of the fascinating area features smaller hot springs, steam vents and mud pools. At Gullfoss, we visit Iceland’s best known and most beautiful waterfall, the two-tiered Golden Falls. This natural wonder, which takes its name from the rainbow that glimmers at the falls when the sun shines, is simply breathtaking. Another highlight is Thingvellir, home of the world’s first parliament and now a national park. In the afternoon we return to Reykjavik.
