Itinerary

Let Iceland’s legendary landscapes captivate you on the “Journeys: Explore Iceland” tour package. Beginning and ending in Reykjavik, this nine-day guided journey invites you to experience the country’s most iconic natural wonders. Traverse the dramatic Snaefellsnes Peninsula, stroll along haunting black sand beaches, and hike to vibrant, rainbow-streaked waterfalls. Delve into the geothermal power of active volcanoes and witness the dynamic meeting point of two continental plates. Along the way, your itinerary weaves in cultural encounters, offering insight into Icelandic traditions and the resilient spirit of its people.

This sightseeing tour moves at a comfortable pace, allowing you to fully absorb the otherworldly beauty that has inspired fantasy writers from Jules Verne to Tolkien and George R. R. Martin. Each day unveils a new facet of Iceland’s ‘fire and ice’ allure—whether you’re marveling at glacial lagoons, exploring historic villages, or relaxing in cozy accommodations included in your package.

A key highlight of this trip is the blend of nature and culture: not only do you witness natural phenomena up close, but you also gain a deeper understanding of local life through guided experiences and authentic interactions. Perfect for travelers eager to combine scenic beauty with meaningful exploration, this small-group tour ensures a memorable and immersive Iceland adventure.

day 1Reykjavík

There is a lot to do in and around Reykjavik - should you wish to take advantage of the many optional activities, such as the Blue Lagoon thermal pools, we recommend booking a pre or post night.
Hotel accommodation in Iceland is very limited and rooms/facilities can be fairly simple with few amenities. Hotels are chosen for their location and access to the wonderous landscapes and natural wonders of Iceland. Hotels are often remote, all the better to enjoy the beautiful natural setting.
Additional Notes:
During winter months (generally November through early March) the itinerary and inclusions are highly subject to change based on weather conditions and less "daylight "hours. Your CEO will go over the schedule and advise you of any alterations on a daily basis. We appreciate your flexibility and understanding that this is completely outside of G Adventures control.

Excellent based on 836 customer reviews from

Dudley

The process from finding the tour we wanted to take to getting set up for the tour was an easy process. The other reviews we saw gave us the security of using their website to book our trip. The only item we missed which would have given a 5* was the trip did not include see the Alps up close or a train trip. Well maybe next time there may be one and we would definitely take that trip.
