Flight to Keflavik and transfer to your accommodation in Iceland's capital. Evening at leisure. Depending on your arrival time, there may be time for a first stroll through the charming old town and dinner in one of the many excellent restaurants. Overnight stay in Reykjavik.

After breakfast, your journey to western Iceland begins. The drive takes you along the picturesque coastline to the Snaefellsnes Peninsula, which offers Iceland's diversity in miniature, as glaciers, volcanoes, black sand beaches, lava fields, and fishing villages are all concentrated in a small area. Overnight stay at the foot of Snaefellsjökull, a glacier-covered volcano that inspired Jules Verne's novel "Journey to the Center of the Earth."

Today a scenic highlight awaits you: the ferry crossing of Breidafjördur, a wide, island-dotted fjord that separates Snaefellsnes from the Westfjords. After arriving in Brjanslaekur, your exploration of the Westfjords begins, one of Iceland's most remote and pristine regions (2 nights).

First, you'll visit the cliffs of Latrabjarg, the westernmost point of mainland Europe, which offer spectacular views of the North Atlantic. During the summer months, millions of seabirds nest here – including the popular puffins, which can often be observed at close range. Next, you'll visit the unique Raudisandur beach – a place that breaks with Iceland's typical black sand beaches. Instead, you'll find a vast stretch of golden to reddish sand that constantly changes depending on the light and tides. The vastness, the colors, and the tranquility make this place an unforgettable experience.

Today's route follows the coastal road, past deep fjords, rugged mountain slopes, and secluded bays. The highlight of the day is the impressive Dynjandi waterfall, which plunges over 100 meters in several cascades. After a walk along the smaller waterfalls, the journey continues to Ísafjörður, the charming center of the Westfjords, picturesquely situated between steep mountains and the fjord of the same name. (2 nights).

A boat trip across the impressive Ísafjardårdjú fjord to the island of Vigur. With a bit of luck, you might spot seabirds, seals, and whales during the crossing. On the island, you'll find Iceland's last remaining windmill, the country's oldest seaworthy boat, and insights into traditional eiderdown harvesting. Vigur is an important bird sanctuary with over 60 bird species, including puffins, eider ducks, common guillemots, and Arctic terns. After visiting Europe's smallest post office and sampling the homemade "Happy Marriage Cake," return to Ísafjörður. Then, continue to Bolungarvík, a small fishing village on the outermost edge of the Westfjords. Weather permitting, the viewpoint on Bolafjall offers spectacular views across the Westfjords and the North Atlantic. *(Note: Puffins are usually found on the island from mid-April to early August.)

The journey leads along rugged fjords, past abandoned farmsteads, steep mountain slopes, and the endless interplay of light and water – a route that intensely conveys a sense of solitude and pristine wilderness. Iceland's largest pool in Reykjanes invites you to take a dip. Crossing the Steingrimsfjardarheidi pass, we reach the fjord of the same name, home to the villages of Holmavik and Drangsnes, which boasts three popular hot pots at the harbor pier. (2 nights in the Strandir region).

An excursion to the remote north of the Strandir region, one of Iceland's most pristine landscapes. The route leads to Djupavik, where the imposing ruins of a former herring factory tell the story of the heyday of herring fishing at the beginning of the 20th century. Those who wish can end the day with a swim in the warm pool right on the Atlantic coast.

The route initially leads through the vast landscape of Reykholar – a region rich in bogs, fjords, and birdlife. The drive towards the capital continues through remote areas until we reach the Ring Road and civilization again. Short orientation tour in Reykjavik (2 nights in the capital).

Today is yours to enjoy at your leisure. Explore Reykjavík on your own or book an optional excursion, such as a whale watching tour departing from and returning to Reykjavík harbor. We recommend booking excursions before your trip.
