Journey to the Centre of the Earth

Who for? For those wishing to take in the scenic wonders of the south and west.

This itinerary begins with a night in the capital. For the remainder of the trip you’ll stay in the countryside and visit many of Iceland’s highlights including the famous geysers at Geysir, at least four incredible waterfalls: Gullfoss; Skogafoss; Seljalandsfoss and Hraunfossar and the magnificently rugged Snaefellsnes Peninsula.

If the weather permits, travel further east and explore Skaftafell, where you could make the short hike to enchanting Svartifoss, bringing the number visited to five, but who’s counting – in Iceland there seems to be a waterfall around every corner! A little further east again, is the breathtaking glacial lagoon at Jokulsarlon, a hauntingly beautiful place at any time of year – be prepared to want to photograph this from every possible angle! Also have time at the end of the trip to visit the famous Blue Lagoon.
