Welcome to Iceland! A driver will meet you at the arrivals gate at Keflavík International Airport (KEF). They will then take you to Reykjavik, Iceland’s capital, where you will check into your hotel and have the remainder of the day to explore Reyjavik and relax after a long day of travel.
Today you will be exploring the world-famous Golden Route. This will be a long day, but each stop will make it worth it. The first stop will be at Þingvellir (Thingvellir) National Park, where you will be able to hike along with the North American plate and through Game of Thrones scenery at Almannagjá gorge, watch the thundering waters at Öxarárfoss waterfall, Marvel at Þingvallavatn, Iceland’s largest natural lake and, witness Langjökull glacier. The next stop on the route will be at the Great Geysir and Strokkur Geysir, natural wonders that keep getting more and more dramatic as you get closer to the geothermal area. The third magnificent stop of the day is the Gullfoss Waterfall where the water plummets 105ft. After a long day of exploring the Golden Circle, you will return to Reykjavik.
*depending on the time of year you can add snorkeling or snowmobiling to your adventures today!
After breakfast, you will head over to explore the aftermath of volcanic eruptions from 3,000 years ago which have made lava fields. A sight like nothing else miles volcanic rock that has been taken over by a blanket of moss.
After waking up and enjoying some breakfast you will head 40 minutes south to the Blue Lagoon spas for the day. Here you will be relaxing at the spa and enjoy the healing silica mud, warm and soothing water, charming surrounding, and billowing steam stacks. This evening will end at accommodation at the spa so you can continue your relaxing day into the night.
After an early breakfast, you will be headed to another lagoon, this time one full of glaciers! You will enjoy a boat tour of the lake and get up close to the glaciers floating in the lake. If you are up for it and feel skilled enough there is even an option to climb on the ice.
After waking up and enjoying breakfast at the glacier lagoon you will be heading back to the capital. Today you get to visit Hallgrimskirkja Church, and the Harpa Concert Hall, and Old Harbor. After seeing the sights you will get to spend the afternoon exploring the public gardens and parks. You have to check out the local cuisine and history before heading out!
After a wonderful week in Iceland, you will be headed back home or onto your next adventure. This morning you will be enjoying one last breakfast before your car picks you up to bring you back to the airport.
