Arrive in Reykjavík. From the moment you touch down, Iceland’s capital welcomes you with crisp air and open skies. This is a city that wears its wild surroundings lightly with colorful rooftops and cozy cafés set against a backdrop of mountains, ocean, and ever-changing light. Reykjavík offers a gentle, inspiring beginning to the experiences ahead.

Once you collect your rental vehicle, you’ll make your way downtown Reykjavik (45 minutes).

This morning, enjoy a city walk and food tour. With our carefully chosen selection of local food treats, you can check off many items from your Icelandic food bucket list. One of the best parts of a food tour is how it connects history with flavor. As you taste something delicious and exciting, you’ll also gain insights into Iceland’s unique culture. The guides are experts and know how to make the experience both fun and educational. Arrive hungry and ready for a relaxed stroll through Reykjavik’s charming city center. Along the way, you’ll taste authentic delicacies, discover the foods the Vikings once ate, and learn how Icelanders survived long winters with clever preservation and cooking methods. You’ll also see how Icelandic cuisine has evolved. Today, creative chefs still use traditional ingredients, yet they transform them into exciting and innovative dishes.

This evening, you’ll be able to witness one of the most amazing events on the planet, the Northern Lights. And to make this even more exciting, we’ve planned this outing to see the lights by boat. Hunting the Northern Lights from the ocean is an amazing experience; sailing away from the coastline of Reykjavik and seeing the aurora borealis out on the North-Atlantic ocean with beautiful mountains and the city in the background is something you won’t forget! You’ll sail out from the Old Harbour in Reykjavik, and in only 15-20 minutes, you will be in a prime location away from the city lights, perfect for viewing the auroras! The guide will share with you facts on the science behind the magical phenomenon of the Northern Lights, and tell you about their stories and myths from different cultures around the world.

Touring Iceland’s Golden Circle is an immersion into the forces that have shaped the island for millennia. This classic route unfolds at an unhurried pace, revealing some of the country’s most iconic landscapes while offering space to truly absorb their power and beauty.

The journey begins at Þingvellir National Park, where the earth itself seems to breathe. Here, you walk between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, standing in a rift valley that is both a geological wonder and a place of deep cultural significance as the birthplace of Iceland’s early parliament. From there, the land grows increasingly dynamic as you approach the Geysir geothermal area, where boiling water surges from the ground and Strokkur reliably erupts skyward, a reminder of the volcanic energy just beneath your feet.

The route culminates at Gullfoss, the “Golden Waterfall,” where glacial meltwater crashes in two dramatic tiers into a rugged canyon. The roar, the mist, and the shifting light make this a moment that lingers long after you’ve moved on. Along the way, view smaller farms, lava fields, and wide-open vistas.

Near Gullfoss, enjoy a snowmobiling tour. Join an unforgettable snowmobile adventure, starting with a thrilling ride in a powerful super truck from Gullfoss. This tour is perfect for those with their own transportation who want to add something extraordinary to their Golden Circle journey. The experienced guides will lead you through the stunning Icelandic highlands, offering breathtaking views of the majestic Langjökull glacier and its spectacular surroundings (included are snowmobiling clothing like suits, gloves, helmets, and boots). The snowmobiles are designed for two riders, and children aged six and up are welcome to join the tour as passengers.

Duration: 4 hours

You’ll drive along Iceland’s Southern Coast this morning. Moss-covered lava fields give way to broad farmlands, where isolated farmhouses sit beneath vast skies, and grazing horses and sheep dot the fields. Waterfalls appear with striking regularity, which look like thin silver ribbons spilling from high cliffs. Glaciers loom in the distance, their white and blue forms spilling down volcanic slopes, while black sand beaches stretch endlessly along the shoreline.

Seljalandsfoss and Gljúfrabúi are often the first introductions to the south coast’s drama. Seljalandsfoss cascades from a high cliff and can be viewed from behind, while nearby Gljúfrabúi hides within a narrow canyon, rewarding those willing to step a little off the path.

Continuing east, Skógafoss rises broad and powerful from the lowlands, its mist frequently catching rainbows on sunny days. For those interested in geology and perspective, the climb up the adjacent staircase reveals sweeping views of the coastline and inland highlands.

Along the coast, a stop at Dyrhólaey offers panoramic views of black sand beaches, sea stacks, and crashing waves, while nearby Reynisfjara Beach showcases Iceland’s volcanic origins through basalt columns and dramatic ocean swells.

This Þórsmörk Super Jeep tour is perfect for nature lovers, hikers, and adventurers looking to experience one of Iceland’s most breathtaking destinations. This tour takes you deep into the Þórsmörk Valley, one of Iceland’s most stunning and remote nature reserves. With towering glaciers, volcanoes, and lush green canyons, this is a place where Iceland’s wild beauty comes to life. Departing from Lava Center in Hvolsvöllur, your expert local guide will take you on a thrilling off-road adventure. The tour is designed to handle Iceland’s challenging terrain, allowing you to cross glacial rivers, drive through volcanic landscapes, and reach hidden gems that regular vehicles simply cannot access. The drive itself is an adventure as you navigate the famous F-roads of Iceland, with stunning views of Eyjafjallajökull Glacier, Mýrdalsjökull, and the brave Krossá River.

Once you arrive in the heart of Þórsmörk Valley, your guide will lead you on a scenic hike suited to the group’s ability and the day’s conditions. Whether you take an easy walk through birch forests or a more challenging hike for panoramic views, every route promises breathtaking scenery.

After an incredible day exploring Iceland’s highlands, we’ll begin our journey back, leaving you with unforgettable memories of Þórsmörk’s wild beauty.

Duration: 6-8 hours

Visit Skaftafell National Park, now part of the greater Vatnajökull National Park,  where glaciers spill down from Europe’s largest ice cap, and dark volcanic sands stretch toward the horizon. The park offers sweeping, dramatic scenery, yet invites exploration at a human pace. Well-maintained trails lead through birch groves and open plains to viewpoints overlooking vast glacial tongues such as Skaftafellsjökull. One of the most beloved walks ends at Svartifoss, a waterfall framed by striking hexagonal basalt columns that echo the forms found in Iceland’s lava flows and cliffs.

Embark on the original and legendary “Blue Ice Experience Glacier Hike”, an epic family-friendly adventure that’s been enthralling visitors since 1994. Your guide will welcome you warmly in Skaftafell and give you a comprehensive introduction to your equipment, including crampons and an ice axe, ensuring you’re safe and fully prepared before you set off for your adventure.

Begin with a short ride on a robust vehicle, which takes you close to the glacier’s edge and maximises your time spent on it. On this Premium Blue Ice Glacier Hike, you will venture deep into the glacier, far beyond the limits of standard tours, allowing you to experience the solitude and tranquillity of this icy wilderness. Feel the exhilaration as you leave the other groups and the more crowded parts of the glacier far behind! Discover the true meaning of Blue Ice, and take home memories that will last a lifetime.

Make your way back to Reykjavik today. Along the way, you can stop at some attractions that you may have missed on the previous days. One suggestion might be to visit Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon, a dramatic, winding moss-covered canyon, which would be a stunning visit. This offers short walking paths that lead to beautiful viewpoints. The Yoda cave in Hjörleifshöfði is another option, or you can stop by Sólheimajökull and walk to the viewpoint over the glacier. There is also a plane wreck hike in Sólheimasandur.

Once back in Reykjavik, you are free to explore on your own for your last day in Iceland.

At the appropriate time, you’ll return to the airport, return your rental vehicle, and depart for home.
