Itinerary

Hope you've packed your spacesuit - this eight-day orbit is about to transport you to another world. Blast off in Reykjavik and discover Iceland's star attractions: glowing geothermal pools, gobsmacking glaciers and WOW-worthy waterfalls. Then delve deeper into the fascinating folklore, magical myths and traditional treats this one-of-a-kind country has to offer. Ready to REALLY explore the Land of Fire and Ice? We have lift off!

Gobsmacking scenery. Richer-than-rich culture. Bucket-list topping activities. Plus all the weird, whacky and wonderful in between welcome to Iceland. With these out-of-this-world landscapes, you might as well have landed on the moon.

Dump your stuff at the hotel and say halló to your fellow explorers. We may be a mixed bunch but were in this together like it was meant to be. Then? Well head to a local haunt to kick things off with an included dinner and tasting (of the local Icelandic beer variety). This is going to be good.

Bless (read: bye) Reykjavík well be back for you later. Weve got a bit of drive today so sink into a window seat and soak up all the screensaver-worthy scenery as we head north.

Fun fact: the small fishing village of Dalvík has produced four Eurovision Song Contest entrants. Must be something in the (ice-cold) water here. Hum a tune as your expert Trip Leader points out the village highlights.

Then: prepare for a whale of a time (we went there) and take to the seas for an unforgettable whale-watching experience. If were lucky, well hear the thunderous crash and see the saltwater spray as these mighty creatures come up for air. Cue: alll the goosebumps. Last but not least, its time to make tracks towards Akureyri for the lowdown on the Capital of the North.

You want fire, water, earth and air all in one day? Greedy, but luckily Icelands got all the elements covered. First, well check out Mother Natures mad skills at Goðafoss Waterfall aka the Waterfall of the Gods.

Then well switch to the dark side at Dimmuborgir lava field. This jigsaw of spiky rocks was formed by a volcanic eruption over 2,000 years ago, and its said the devil landed here when he was chucked out of heaven. Ouch.

Next: hold your nose. Dont blame your trip mates for that eggy smell its the sulfurous gases rising from Námafjalls bubbling geothermal pools. This place looks like Mars, and youll definitely wish you had a space helmet on. Finally, well treat our peepers to rip-roaring Dettifoss waterfall before rolling into our hotel for the eve. What. A. Day.

Ready to see Iceland live up to its name? Well ooohh and aaahhh our way through the mystical East Fjords for a slice of real Icelandic life. Think snow-capped mountains, charming villages, and maybe even a puffin or two.

Next up: Vatnajökull glacier. This jaw-dropping, ginormous ice cap covers around 8% of the country in a blanket of kryptonite-style blue ice and thick layers of volcanic ash. Watch out for White Walkers Game of Thrones North of The Wall was filmed here. Tonight, dinner's on us when we settle into the oh-so-beautiful Jökulsárlón region this evening.

Another day, another memory-making frozen landscape. Keen to delve deeper? Channel all the Indiana Jones vibes and explore Vatnajökulls eye-popping ice caves. Its like being dropped into a snow globe. Or opt for a boat trip around Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon to gawp at some enormous icebergs (not in a Titanic way) and maybe spot a resident seal.

Next? Well seek out the immense Svínafellsjökull glacier before rounding off the day in a gorgeous spot along the South Coast. All the icy adventuring got you yawning so loud it rivals an orca? Grab a bite to eat and get to bed. Weve got another jam-packed day tomorrow!

If beaches went goth, theyd look like this. This morning well sink our toes into the black sand of Reynisfjara. The dramatic basalt columns here are actually trolls that got turned into stone (allegedly).

Next, well lay eyes on super-scenic Seljalandsfoss waterfall before exploring the legendary Golden Circle. 300 kilometres of phenomenal Icelandic landscapes. Natural wonders dont get any better than this. Trust us. Well check out the roaring Gullfoss Falls. Holy sh*t our way around the Great Geysir. And soak up all the amazingness at UNESCO World Heritagelisted Thingvellir National Park.

Tummies rumbling, its time to hunt down some street food traditional sheep soup and fish stew are a must. Then? Locate a local bar and hit the dancefloor with your trip mates.

This is your day to delve deeper into Icelands quirky capital. Need some suggestions? Get the blues in the best way possible soaking in the magical geothermal pools of the Blue Lagoon (we recommend you book this in advance as it sells out during busy times. You can book it through the official Blue Lagoon website pick the option including transport!).

Make eyes at the magic of The Lava Tunnel a volcanic work of art on an optional tour (its been there for 5,200 years, so its time to see it). Check out the Saga Museum, National Museum of Iceland or Phallological Museum (for something a bit... different). Or sink your Jaws into a traditional local delicacy fermented shark. Tonight: well give this incredible Icelandic adventure the send-off it deserves at our final group feed.

You tried the food. You met the locals. You said yes to culture. Yes to history. Yes to the new and the unique. You embraced it all. And now, its over (no crying). Head down to breakfast and swap those socials youll need them for that meet-up on mainland Europe. Where to next?
