Iceland Trips & Tours

Our Trips to Iceland

Our small-group Iceland trips capture nature at its most dramatic: colossal waterfalls, twinkling glaciers, spouting geysers and steaming hot pools. Discover the top sites, and many lesser-known wonders, with the help of our expert tour leaders, whether you decide to trek the Laugavegur Trail, search for the Northern Lights, or see the best the country has to offer on our Iceland Explorer adventure

Most of our Iceland tours start and end in Reykjavik, the capital. It’s small but packs a cultural punch with the avant-garde Hallgrimskirka church and Harpa concert hall, while the waterfront is the place to go if the Northern Lights are dancing.

Mostly, though, it’s outside the city that we want to explore. Our trips to Iceland make for unforgettable adventure holidays, with visits to the impressive Gullfoss and Godafoss waterfalls, Lake Myvatn and the Jokulsarlon Lagoon. Booking an Iceland trip is also one of the best ways to see the Northern Lights, and no Iceland holiday would be complete without immersing yourself in the steaming waters of the Blue Lagoon.

From geological wonders to dramatic landscapes, our trips to Iceland don’t disappoint.

Essential experiences on our Iceland trips

Explore the Big Country: While it’s not necessarily big in geographical terms, Iceland is massive when it comes to geological diversity and geographic features. The interior mainly consists of a plateau characterised by sand fields, mountains and glaciers, while many big glacial rivers flow to the sea through the lowlands. And, of course, you’ll want to explore the world-famous geysers, waterfalls and the cultural city of Reykjavik on our Iceland trips.

Bathe in the Blue Lagoon: After a hard day’s trekking, there is no better place to relax and revitalise than in the warm mineral-rich hot springs of the Blue Lagoon. Lying on the Reykjanes Peninsula, the lagoon is fed by heated seawater and surrounded by walls of black lava. The mineral-rich water is believed to have regenerative and healing qualities and the silica mud used for face masks can help reduce skin ailments.

Visit Skogafoss waterfall: At 60m high, Skogafoss is an impressive waterfall that cascades over the edge of the clifftop and crashes into the river below. The huge roar and spray clouds are immense and can be experienced from various viewpoints. Take the 370 steps to the top for one of the best views over the falls and the coast beyond. On a sunny day, you might even be lucky enough to see the gorgeous rainbows that arch across the water.

Go whale watching: Iceland is the ultimate destination for whale watching and our Iceland tours offer some amazing opportunities. During summer, the waters around the shoreline become a vast feeding ground for whales, attracting a great diversity of species including minke, humpback and pilot whales, plus orca.
