Your private driver will tell you about all the sites en route, and you are free to ask as many questions as you like.

After leaving Akureyri, you'll begin your drive along the beautiful Arctic Coast.

The part of the Arctic Coast you will travel across includes the dramatic Trollaskagi Peninsula and Eyjafjordur fjord.

Those who love wildlife can keep their eyes peeled for the many animals in the area. Seabirds are almost guaranteed, though you may also see seals on the shores and dolphins in the waters.

After this, you'll see volcanic black sand beaches at Olafsfjordur before reaching the town of Siglufjordur, which has some of the best views in the country and rows of colorful, charming buildings.

After a fantastic day exploring the nature and settlements of the Arctic Coast, you'll head to the first microbrewery established in Iceland, the Kaldi Brewery. Here, you'll learn how local ingredients are utilized to create a range of great beers and try some of their diverse flavors.
