Hand-crafted Travel to Iceland

Iceland, home to some of the most stunning landscapes on the planet, is a top destination offering a wealth of activities year-round. While winter brings cool temperatures and summer offers slightly warmer weather, each season provides a unique and beautiful vacation experience. Visitors can hike glaciers, relax in the Blue Lagoon, and marvel at the Northern Lights, or snorkel between tectonic plates at Silfra. Iceland is full of hidden gems, attracting nature lovers with its breathtaking vistas and abundant wildlife, while also providing magical scenery for those seeking relaxation.

  • Discover the tectonic plates of Thingvellir National Park, the double cascade at Gullfoss Waterfall, and the explosive Strokkur geyser in Geysir Geothermal Area, all under one scenic route known as The Golden Circle Tour.
  • Experience glacier hiking on Sólheimajökull and lagoon access snowmobiling, or explore the blue ice caves for a unique experience.
  • Join winter excursions from Reykjavik to see the Northern Lights, best seen on clear nights between September and April.
  • Take a boat tour from Húsavík or Reykjavik to see humpback whales, orcas, and dolphins in the opulent waters of Iceland.
  • Stay in style at luxury hotels like The Retreat Hotel at the Blue Lagoon, featuring a private lagoon complete with spa treatments and fine dining.

There is much to enjoy in Iceland throughout the year, depending on whether you are looking to explore the magnificent scenery or view the Northern Lights.

Iceland Hotspots

Embrace the magic of Iceland’s geological wonders. Reykjavik, the capital, fuses modernity with Viking heritage. The Golden Circle reveals geysers, waterfalls, and Thingvellir National Park. Explore the ethereal landscapes of Jökulsárlón’s glacial lagoon. Relax in the Blue Lagoon’s geothermal waters.

Reykjavik And The Golden Circle

The Icelandic capital feels more like a large fishing town rather than a bustling city, even though 60% of the country live here. The city is comfortably walkable and worth exploring if only to mix with the charming locals in our suggested local favourites. Reykjavik also acts as the perfect platform from where you can see the countries highlights, not least the Golden Circle and Blue Lagoon.

Three main attractions form the dazzling Golden Circle: Thingvellir national park, Gullfoss waterfall and the geothermally active valley of Haukadalur, which contains the geysers Geysir and Strokkur. Covering about 300 km in the South of Iceland, this dazzling route loops from Reykjavik into central Iceland and back and is an integral element of any Iceland tour.
