Iceland : Killer Whales and Northern Lights

Departures: January to March Duration: 4 nights Price: from £598

After a successful 2012 Season, this exciting short break based on Iceland's stunning Snaefellsnes Peninsula returns between January and March 2013. Head out on boat trips for close-up encounters with the large groups of orca that often frequent the Grundarfjordur bay! Right in the middle of the aurora season, this time of year is also fantastic for northern lights activity. In the company of knowledgeable and enthusiastic guides, this is a small group tour of around 25 participants.

NEW for 2013 - Exclusive WhaleFest, 17 February!
