Vacationing in Iceland

Iceland offers endless natural and cultural attractions guaranteed to leave you inspired. The country's allure lies in its countless waterfalls, glaciers and dramatic coastlines; its looming mountains, moss-ridden lava fields and mysterious rock formations. Iceland challenges you to resist its magnetic pull.

You could be forgiven for feeling a little overwhelmed as to where to begin exploring many such curiosities, so let us be your guide and the sky be the limit—be it inhabited by the midnight sun of summer, or the northern lights of winter.

Immerse yourself fully in the wonders of Iceland, whatever the time of year, with one of our tailored vacation packages or self drive tours.

Perhaps you would like to explore the Ring Road of Iceland, an impressive 1332 km (828 mi) long stretch of road which encircles the island? We offer a multitude of options suited to the time of year and the number of days you can grant this exciting journey around the country.

It could take a lifetime to discover all that Iceland has to offer, so why not pace yourself and focus on a more specific area? You could spend days exploring the abundant and varied features around the Snæfellsnes Peninsula in the West, often heralded as ‘Iceland in Miniature’ for its diversity of sights to see.

Iceland is host to an abundance of wildlife. Notably, the Atlantic puffin, which flocks in large numbers to nest in the craggy coastline during the summer months.

All year round, the abundance of fish and krill which inhabit the seas surrounding the country attract several whale, dolphin and porpoise species. Many of our packages present the opportunity to see these beautiful animals in the wild, perfect for animal lovers and families alike.
