Itinerary
- Day 1: Arrival in Iceland Arrival to Keflavik Airport and pick-up your rental car for the next days (not included). Make your way to Reykjavik, the quirky capital of Iceland. The rest of the afternoon is yours to explore the many sights of the city. Overnight in a 4 start boutique hotel.
- Day 2: Snæfellsnes Peninsula Head northwards to the peninsula or Snæfellsnes, which is often called ‘Iceland in Miniature’ due to the wealth and diversity of dramatic landscapes and natural wonders found there. If you are a Game of Thrones lover, some places might look familiar. You spend the next two nights in the charming Hotel Egilsen in the town of Stykkisholmur, one of Iceland’s most picturesque towns.
- Day 3: Snæfellsnes Peninsula This day is at your leisure to explore the beauty of Snæfellsnes peninsula. Some places that will leave you speechless are the lonely Kirkjufell “church mountain” rising from the sea as a backdrop for the Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall, Búðir black church and the columnar basalt cliffs of Arnarstapi and Gerðuberg. Not to forget as well is the stunning Snæfellsjökull National Park at the western tip of the peninsula.
- Day 4: Highlands Today make your way towards the otherworldly highlands of Iceland and the area of Husafell, which is located next to the famous Langjokull Glacier, Iceland’s second-largest ice cap. From here you have an abundance of fun activities just at your doorstep.
- Day 5: Langjokull Glacier Today you will experience one of the unique activities Iceland has to offer: a tour inside a massive man-made ice tunnel located inside Langjokull Glacier. The 500-meters-long ice tunnel is the largest in the world, standing 3-m tall and 3.5-m wide. The rest of the day is yours to spend in the area, go for a small hike in the dense birchwood forest, enjoy a round of golfing or just soak in one of the geothermal pools.

For 6-8 hours your guide will tell you stories about the area and might take you on short hikes, to truly feel the pull and tug of landscape. (not guaranteed but depending on the fitness of the whole group).
