A few words

An individual fly-drive journey through the land of fire and ice, covering the Golden Circle, the south coast, the glaciers and the search for the Northern Lights. You drive yourself along the Ring Road, between volcanoes, waterfalls and black sand beaches. The aurora is visible roughly from late September to March and, like any natural phenomenon, can never be guaranteed.

History

Iceland was settled by Norwegian Vikings in the 9th century and in 930 founded the Althingi at Thingvellir, one of the oldest parliaments in the world. Centuries of Norwegian and then Danish rule followed, with daily life shaped by fishing and volcanic eruptions. The country became a fully independent republic in 1944.

Sights

The Golden Circle takes in Thingvellir National Park, the hot springs of Geysir and the powerful Gullfoss waterfall. Along the south coast stand the Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss waterfalls, the black beach of Reynisfjara and the village of Vik. Further east lie Skaftafell National Park and the Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon, where icebergs drift slowly out to sea.

Food

North Atlantic fish, especially cod and Arctic char, is cooked simply and served very fresh. Try free-range lamb, the hearty kjotsupa lamb soup, the traditional skyr yoghurt and rugbraud, a rye bread baked with geothermal heat. Reykjavik also has excellent bistros serving modern Nordic cuisine.

Nightlife

Reykjavik is famous for its live music scene, with small bars and venues along Laugavegur street. On Saturdays the city comes alive late and keeps going into the early hours. Outside the capital, evenings are given over to geothermal pools and to watching for the Northern Lights under clear skies.

Tour's Location

When is the best time to travel?

This is a made-to-order trip, so you choose the dates. We are happy to advise on the best season for this destination and on how the weather, prices and crowds change through the year — just tell us roughly when you are thinking of travelling.

What is included in the price?

The main inclusions are:

  • Flights Athens – Keflavik – Athens
  • Accommodation in selected hotels with breakfast
  • Car hire for the entire route
  • Transfers to and from Keflavik airport

The full list of what is and is not included appears in the "Included / Excluded" section on this page.

Will the flight be direct?

It depends on the season and the destination. Many trips do have a direct flight, but depending on your dates the airlines may not have a direct connection available for that period, in which case the trip may involve one stopover. We will tell you the exact flight routing clearly in your quote, before you proceed with the booking.

Is the "From €X" price what I'll actually pay?

Not necessarily. The "From €X" price is the lowest price available today, based on current flight and hotel availability for that destination. Because availability changes daily, the final price for your specific dates may differ. We'll send you a firm, written quote before anything is charged, once you tell us the dates you have in mind.

Why does the price change depending on the date?

Flight and hotel prices change daily depending on season, demand, day of the week, and how far in advance you book. That's why the price shown is indicative — the earlier you tell us your dates, the easier it is for us to secure the best possible price.

How much does a single room cost?

The single-room supplement varies by hotel and destination, and is included in the quote you'll receive for your specific dates. If you're travelling alone, let us know from the start so the quote already reflects the correct single-room price.

When do I pay for my trip?

Payment is due in full at the time of booking. For certain hotels that have their own payment policy (for example a deposit or a specific payment deadline), we'll let you know clearly before you proceed, so you know exactly what applies.

If I book now, is the price locked in?

Yes — once your booking is confirmed, the price is fixed and won't be affected by later changes in flight or hotel prices. Availability and price can only change before your booking is finalised.

Is there a surcharge if I depart from a different city?

Several trips offer the option to depart from a city other than Athens (for example Thessaloniki), usually with a small additional charge. If this applies to a specific trip, it will be noted on the page or mentioned when we send your quote. This trip is also available departing from Larnaca (Cyprus) — the flight price difference is calculated in your personal quote.

What travel documents do I need?

For destinations inside the European Union and the Schengen area, Greek citizens travel with a new-type national ID card bearing Latin characters, or with a valid passport. We recommend carrying your European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) as well. Minors must carry their own travel document, and a valid driving licence is required if you are hiring a car. Entry rules change, so please confirm the current requirements with us before you book.

What currency is used?

The local currency is Icelandic Krona (ISK). Cards are widely accepted in cities and hotels, but it is worth carrying some cash for small shops, markets and tips. Tell your bank you are travelling so your card is not blocked.

Can I change the dates or cancel?

Changes and cancellations follow the terms of the airlines, hotels and suppliers booked for you, so the cost depends on how close to departure you are and on the fare rules of each booking. Tell us as early as possible and we will look for the least costly option. The general terms of participation apply to every booking.

Is travel insurance included?

Travel insurance is not included in the price unless the "Included" list on this page says otherwise. We strongly recommend it, especially for trips outside the EU, so that medical care, cancellation and lost luggage are covered. We can arrange a policy for you — just ask when you book.

Can the trip be customised?

Yes — this is an individual trip, not a group departure. There is no fixed itinerary and no coach schedule: you travel on your own, at your own pace. We can change the number of nights, the class of hotel, add or drop destinations and arrange transfers, car hire or private guides.

How do I book?

Send us a request through the form on this page, call us, or drop by the office. We will come back with availability and a written quotation before anything is charged. The trip as shown runs for 7 days.
