day 1 - Reykjavik
Hallo! Welcome to Reykjavik, which lies just below the Arctic Circle. The city sees around 22 hours of sunlight a day in summer or as little as four hours of sunlight in winter. This creates the perfect opportunity to experience the magic of the midnight sun or northern lights depending on the weather and time of year you're travelling. Your family adventure begins with a welcome meeting at 3 pm today. After, your leader will guide a walk through the city centre introducing you and your family to the country's fascinating folklore. Iceland is called the Land of the Sagas because of its incredible tradition of folklore and tall tales, like the ‘Elves of Iceland’ (known in Iceland as ‘the hidden people’) and the trolls, whose existence is shrouded in mystery, not to mention the 13 Santas! After you've worked up an appetite you may like to join your fellow travellers for a group dinner this evening.

Continue on to the Geysir Geothermal Area and check out the Strokkur Geyser – it swells with blue water before erupting and shooting a spout some 15 - 20 metres in the air. Finally, witness the sheer power of the Gullfoss (Golden) Waterfall on the Hvita River.
