Before heading through the uninhabited highlands and moon-like surrounding to East Iceland, you'll take a little detour to the powerful waterfall Dettifoss.

Today you'll travel the twisty roads of the Eastfjords with the magnificent glacier of Vatnajökull towering over you the entire journey.

This area appears in Season Two and shows the frozen land located north of the Wall. The producers made do with artificial snow in Season One, but ventured to Iceland for scenes beyond the Wall after that, with the Svínafellsjökull glacier near Skaftafell Nature Reserve featuring prominently.

As the pack head north to find the White Walkers, they trek through a lot of ice and snow, even hiking a glacier, which is not something we would recommend unless you’re an experienced mountaineer or... of course... Jon Snow.

Today you'll return to Westeros by crossing Eldhraun lava field and the sandy desert of the South Coast, overlooked by craggy cliffs, glaciers and waterfalls.

On this busy day, your guide will tell you about the symbolic significance of the setting in context to the plot as you'll stroll along the black lava beach of Reynisfjara near the village of Vík.

The areas surrounding Vík have been the location of various scenes in Game of Thrones; the Höfðabrekkuheiði hiking area appears as the frozen wastes of northern Westeros, Reynisfjara black sand beach is yet another Season Seven location where it serves as the sea by The Wall at the Eastwatch-by-the-sea, and the Mýrdalsjökull glacier becomes the Fist of the First Men.

In the afternoon, you'll arrive in the small village of Skógar near the spectacular Skógafoss waterfall. A short drive away is the equally beautiful Seljalandsfoss waterfall.

Today, you'll travel the famed Golden Circle route which also includes the most famous filming locations of Series Four.

The last stop on the trail is Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site and where many scenes from Series Four were shot such as The Bloody Gate, Wildlings roaming South of the Wall and the meeting of Thenns and Wildlings. It is also where the character, Styr, is introduced.

The Almannagjá gorge, found in the national park, is also the narrow road to the stronghold of the Vale of Arryn.

In the late afternoon, you'll return to your accommodation in Reykjavík city.

It's your final day in Iceland, and in Westeros, the culmination of a lifetime's worth of adventure!
