It would have been nice to have a hotel more centrally located in Borgames. The Hotel Hamar Borgames was nice but extremely isolated. There was nothing to do. Other hotels were centrally located and there were retail and grocery stores nearby.
Our tour manager, Kristen and our bus driver were fantastic! Kristen provided a nice balance of facts, stories and quiet time on the bus. When weather changed our plans, she handled it all smoothly. Loved all the waterfalls and the Northern Lights!

Iceland is a remote volcanic island, with mind-blowing landscapes and fascinating culture.

The landscape is characterised by volcanoes, thundering waterfalls, geysers and geothermal hot springs, all accompanied by black sand beaches, bubbling mud pools and lava fields. Enjoy dramatic deep fjords, ideal for Zodiac cruising and some of the largest glaciers in Europe, whilst soaking up the abundance of birdlife.
