Many visitors to Iceland only take 1- or 2-day trips from the capital. This 7-day experience from Reykjavik offers the opportunity to get a less rushed and more in-depth experience of the country. Travel around the entire island, from the south coast to the East Fjords, to Akureyri, the capital of the north, and Snaefellsnes Peninsula in the west, without the hassle of driving or arranging accommodation.

Outstanding !

Kyle_D, Oct 2022

Exceeding Beyond any expectations. The guide is delivering jaw dropping sceneries wherever we go ! Highly highly recommended !

Don’t take the 7 day tour.

Jenny_W, Jul 2022

This is a 6+1 day tour. On the 6th day, the bus dropped us off at Hotel Borganese at about 2pm, and we spent the night there. There is basically nothing much to do in the small town before we set off for the 1 day tour the next morning. That day was pretty much wasted.

Saw the northern lights 3 times, great experience.

yazminmorlet, Feb 2020

Saw the northern lights 3 times in 6 days, this is subject to weather conditions, I got very lucky, this tour allows you to see most of Iceland, check the tour guides before you book to make sure you are interested in all the areas mentioned. Additionally, make sure you get all the proper information from the tour before you book. I had Vignir Jonsson as a tour guide, he's a highly experienced local, a great driver and knows all the myths and history around Iceland.
