TOUR ITINERARY
Travel itinerary
Day 1: Southern Coast Adventure
Your Iceland journey begins with a morning pickup from your hotel in Reykjavík, where you’ll meet your guide and fellow travelers before setting out along Iceland’s breathtaking Southern Coast.
Though our final stop for the day is just a few hours away, the journey is filled with incredible sights and experiences that will make every moment unforgettable.
Our first stops are two of Iceland’s most iconic waterfalls — Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss. At Seljalandsfoss, you’ll have the chance to walk behind the waterfall, an exhilarating and rare perspective that captures the magic of Iceland’s wild beauty. Just a short drive away, Skógafoss impresses with its powerful, wide cascade — and if we’re lucky, rainbows will shimmer in its mist.
Next, we’ll venture off the beaten path to a hidden waterfall tucked deep within a canyon — a peaceful spot surrounded by rugged cliffs and lush moss, perfect for soaking in Iceland’s quiet majesty.
We’ll end the day at the world-famous Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach, known for its striking basalt columns, roaring Atlantic waves, and dramatic coastal cliffs. The contrast of black sand and sea foam makes this one of the most photogenic spots in all of Iceland.
As night falls, and if conditions are right, we’ll set out for our first Northern Lights chase. With a bit of luck and clear skies, you might witness the aurora’s ethereal colors dancing above Iceland’s southern horizon — the perfect way to end your first day of adventure.
Day 2: Vík → Vatnajökull National Park
Our journey continues east toward the majestic Vatnajökull National Park, home to Europe’s largest glacier. The drive itself is a scenic adventure, showcasing Iceland’s ever-changing landscapes — from black sand plains to snow-capped peaks.
We’ll spend the day immersed in glacial wonder, exploring hidden trails, marveling at ice formations, and feeling the scale of nature up close. Along the way, we’ll stop by one of Iceland’s most photogenic waterfalls, perfect for a short walk and stunning photos.
The highlight of the day awaits at the world-famous Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, where massive icebergs float quietly across crystal-blue waters. Listening to the ice crack and watching the glowing blue tones shift with the light is an experience like no other.
Just nearby lies Diamond Beach, where shimmering ice fragments rest on jet-black volcanic sand — a surreal contrast that feels almost otherworldly.
If conditions and weather allow, we’ll end the day chasing the Northern Lights. With luck on our side, the sky may light up in waves of green, pink, and violet — the perfect finale to a truly unforgettable day.
Day 3: Vestrahorn – Viking Village – Selfoss
We’ll begin the day exploring one of Iceland’s most breathtaking landmarks Vestrahorn, a dramatic mountain rising sharply above a stretch of striking black sand beach. The contrast between the rugged peaks and the glistening shoreline makes this an unforgettable destination for photography and quiet reflection alike.
Our next stop is the Viking Village, a fascinating film set used for various movies and TV productions. As you wander through the authentic-looking wooden structures, you may even encounter a few friendly farm animals nearby, adding to the charm of this unique location.
From Vestrahorn, we’ll embark on a scenic drive back toward Selfoss. Along the way, we’ll make several stops to stretch, take photos, and soak in the ever-changing Icelandic landscape.
If the weather is favorable, we’ll end the day with a Northern Lights hunt, a chance to witness one of nature’s most mesmerizing displays. Fingers crossed for clear skies and a magical finale to the evening.
Day 4: Reykjadalur Hot Spring River – Return to Reykjavík
We’ll begin the day with a scenic trek to the famous Reykjadalur Hot Spring Thermal River, one of Iceland’s most unique geothermal destinations. The trail stretches approximately 3 kilometers each way, guiding us through steaming vents, rolling hills, and breathtaking landscapes of the Hengill volcanic area.
Reykjadalur, meaning “Steam Valley,” is part of the Hengill volcanic system, where geothermal energy continues to shape the land thousands of years after the last eruption. The naturally heated river offers a rare opportunity to relax and soak in the warm waters while surrounded by Iceland’s dramatic scenery.
After the hike, we’ll return to Reykjavík, giving you time to unwind, explore the city at your leisure, or enjoy a relaxing evening in Iceland’s vibrant capital.
Day 5: Exploring the Golden Circle
Today, we’ll embark on a journey through Iceland’s iconic Golden Circle, a route that showcases some of the country’s most extraordinary natural and historical landmarks.
Our first stop is Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where history and geology converge. Walk between the tectonic plates of North America and Eurasia, admire the rugged cliffs, and learn about the site’s significance as the location of Iceland’s first parliament.
Next, we’ll visit the Geysir Geothermal Area, home to bubbling hot springs and erupting geysers. Witness the spectacular Strokkur Geyser as it shoots boiling water high into the air, offering fantastic photo opportunities and an unforgettable experience of Iceland’s geothermal power.
Throughout the day, there will be plenty of opportunities for photography, short hikes, and stretching your legs, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in Iceland’s diverse landscapes. After a day of exploration, we’ll return to Reykjavík for a relaxing evening.
Day 6: Whale Watching – Horseback Riding – Luxury Spa – Farewell
On our final day in Iceland, we’ll enjoy three unforgettable experiences that celebrate the country’s natural beauty and offer the perfect ending to our journey.
We’ll begin with an exciting whale watching tour from Reykjavík’s harbor. Keep your eyes on the ocean for majestic whales, playful dolphins, and curious seabirds. Experienced guides will share insights about the marine life and surrounding coastal landscapes, making this an unforgettable adventure at sea.
In the afternoon, we’ll experience the iconic Icelandic horses up close. Take a scenic horseback ride through Reykjavík’s countryside, traversing lava fields, rolling meadows, and rugged terrain. These gentle horses, known for their unique gait called the tölt, provide a truly authentic way to connect with Iceland’s landscape and heritage.
To conclude our journey, we’ll indulge in a special luxury spa experience. Relax and rejuvenate in a serene setting, soaking in geothermal waters and enjoying world-class spa facilities, the perfect way to reflect on a week of adventure and celebrate the memories made.
