In the company of our expert guides, you’ll get the inside scoop on the human history and tectonic action that is constantly changing this amazing land. Well-sited hotels ensure you are close to nature and the activities, while also being totally family-friendly. Prepare to be totally amazed!

DAYS 1-3 — REYKJAVIK / SKALAKOT
Your Iceland tours begin on a privately guided walk in Reykjavik, the world’s northernmost capital. After, journey underground to explore a volcanic eruption from the inside.

A short coastal drive takes you to your luxury manor house hotel on a farm that's been owned by the same family for seven generations. It's the perfect jumping off point for activities - riding the short, sturdy, shaggy Icelandic horses, visiting the best waterfall in Iceland, buckling on crampons for a glacier walk and strolling on a black sand beach.

DAYS 4-6 – SNAEFELLSNES / BLUE LAGOON 
Experience Þingvellir National Park as you explore tectonic plates by either snorkeling between them in the world’s clearest water, or hiking over them in the island's oldest national park.

Out on the Snaefellsnes Peninsula, your countryside hotel overlooks a glacier-capped volcano. Your daily expeditions include whale watching in waters where the Minke and humpback species spend the summer, fine coastal walks, and the chance to meet a real-life shark fisherman. 

And on your final day, wade in for a soak at the Blue Lagoon, a steamy geothermal lake, where you can relax like a real Icelander, enjoy the people watching, and maybe get an in-water massage.
