Your tour of Iceland begins in the capital city of Reykjavik. As you leave the city and drive out into the island’s rural splendor, you’ll hear about the original inhabitants of Iceland… and what they did when they realized the Vikings were coming. You’ll also get familiar with the famous mythological figures of Odin, Thor, and Loki.

The first major landmark you’ll reach is Helgufoss, a brief hike leading to a lovely waterfall. Beyond that, you’ll get a crash course in Icelandic culture, from Nobel Prize winners to poetry and dancing! You’ll then arrive at Vinaskógur, one of the only forests remaining on the island. After that is Thingvellir, which served as the home to the oldest parliament in the entire world.

Once you’re done with that, you’ll be introduced to one of Iceland’s most famous sagas, a blend of fact and fiction loaded with adventure. Next, you’ll arrive at one of Iceland’s best attractions: a huge geyser that you’re almost guaranteed to see erupt!

After that, you’ll come to the Secret Lagoon, Iceland’s oldest natural pool, followed by a unique restaurant based in a greenhouse!

Your route takes you next to Skálhol, an important religious center dating all the way back to the year 1106! Then you’ll pass the Sólheimar Ecovillage, which offers a totally unique look at how a town can operate. Finally, you’ll arrive at the Kerid Crater and learn about the wild volcanic history of Iceland. The tour concludes beyond this crater, just outside Reykjavik.
