Flight to Keflavik and transfer to your accommodation in Iceland's capital. Evening at leisure. Overnight stay in Reykjavik.

In the morning, we meet our tour guide and begin our tour. Following the glacial river Thjorsa, we travel along gravel tracks and through several fords to reach the colorful rhyolite mountains of Landmannalaugar. Here, short hikes through the surreal landscape are possible. Those who wish can bathe in the natural hot springs. The route then leads us back to our accommodation along the foothills of the Hekla volcano.

We visit the two waterfalls, Skogafoss and Seljalandsfoss, behind which a small path leads. The surf of the North Atlantic is impressive at Cape Dyrhólaey, as is the black sand beach of Vík. We then follow the Mýrdalsjökull glacier to our accommodation.

Drive through the Eldhraun lava and outwash plain to Skaftafell National Park with the impressive Vatnajökull, Europe's largest glacier. Then continue through the Breidamerkursandur desert to the Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon. The boat trip among drifting icebergs is breathtaking (included). Overnight stay at the foot of the Vatnajökull glacier.

From Höfn we drive along the East Fjords, the oldest part of the island geologically. Passing colorful fishing villages, steep fjords and deep valleys, we reach Egilsstaðir, the commercial center of the east.

Drive across the Mödrudalur highland plateau to Dettifoss, Europe's most powerful waterfall, in Jökulsárgljúfur National Park. We traverse the Ásbyrgi canyon and finally reach Húsavík on the Tjörnes peninsula. Our destination for the day is North Iceland and the area around Akureyri, where we arrive at our accommodation. (2 nights)

Today is dedicated to the region around Lake Mývatn. The diverse vegetation, rich birdlife, and impressive lava formations make Mývatn a paradise for nature lovers. In the Namaskard geothermal area, bubbling mud pools and steaming fissures shape the landscape. We will also visit the bizarre lava formations of Dimmuborgir and Goðafoss, the "Waterfall of the Gods."

The route follows the coast, passing through the fishing villages of Dalvik and Olafsfjördur, before reaching the port city of Siglufjördur – the former center of the herring fishery. A visit to the Herring Museum is highly recommended. The journey continues through Skagafjord, known for its horse breeding, to Varmahlid.

Drive along the Kjölur highland route between the Langjökull and Hofsjökull glaciers. Opportunity to bathe in the natural, warm pools of Hveravellir. The highland route ends in the south at the Gullfoss waterfall and in the Haukadalur valley with the active Strokkur geyser. (2 nights)

Nestled between the glaciers Myrdalsjökull and Eyjafjallajökull lies the impressive glacial valley of Thorsmörk. Here we experience yet another facet of the Icelandic highland landscapes.

We begin our journey by driving along Lake Thingvallavatn to Thingvellir National Park. From there, we continue across the Kaldidalur highland route, past the Langjökull glacier, to the impressive Hraunfossar lava waterfalls. Nearby is Deildartunguhver, the most productive hot spring in Europe. Afterwards, we enjoy an introductory city tour of Reykjavík, the Icelandic capital. The tour guide will then bid you farewell, and the evening is yours to explore at your leisure.

The day is at your leisure. You have the opportunity to explore Reykjavík on your own or to participate in an optional excursion, such as a whale watching trip from the port of Reykjavík (from approx. EUR 97).
