Itinerary

Day 1  Keflavik to Snaefellsnes Peninsula      
Arrive into Keflavik airport and pick up your car before driving north to the picturesque Snaefellsnes Peninsula. Best known for Snaefellsjokull, the setting of Jules Verne’s Journey to the Centre of the Earth, the region is rich in lava fields, volcanic peaks and waterfalls.      

Day 2  Snaefellsnes Peninsula      
Enjoy a full day exploring the peninsula. Pay a visit to Mount Kirkjufell, a pristine conical peak, and its neighbouring waterfalls or head to the peninsula tip to visit the impressive Snaefellsjokull Glacier and lava caves. The coastline boasts endless jagged rock formations left by ancient volcanic eruptions and a wide variety of hiking trails.      

Day 3  Snaefellsnes Peninsula to Husafell      
Today leave the peninsula and make your way east to rural Husafell. Stop for lunch in the village of Reykholt and visit the bubbling geothermal pools of Deildartunguhver.      

Day 4  Husafell      
Located in a hidden valley within the Icelandic highlands, the Hotel Husafell is an excellent base for getting off the beaten track. Enjoy hiking across the varied landscapes, from dense woodlands to mountain peaks and rugged lava fields.  Visit historic Viking ruins, join a tour to explore the Langjokull Glacier or try mountain biking across the exhilarating terrains of the Highland Park. At the end of the day visit the hot springs at Husafell Canyon Baths or take a dip in the hotel’s geothermal pool.      

Day 5  Husafell to Reykjavik      
Say goodbye to the beautiful Icelandic wilderness and make your way back to Reykjavik. This afternoon enjoy spotting nature’s giants on a whale watching tour before relaxing with a delicious dinner at one of the city’s exceptional restaurants.      

Days 6-7  Reykjavik  
Spend two full days exploring the compact capital city of Reykjavik and beyond. Take a stroll down the colourful Laugavegur street filled with shops and vibrant wall murals before stopping at the imposing Hallgrimskirkja Church. Perhaps attend a concert at the mesmerizing Harpa Concert Hall where its unique architecture glows with the colours of the Northern Lights. Those eager for more Icelandic adventures will find a variety of day tours to enjoy including the Golden Circle, snowmobiling and glacier hikes.      

Day 8  Reykjavik      
This morning pay a visit to the turquoise waters of the Blue Lagoon. After your soak make your way to the airport to drop off your car in time for your onward flight.
