Discover Iceland by land, sea and air in this deluxe seven-day journey with activities that challenge the mighty forces of nature, while experiencing the ultimate way to relax from the excitement. Tasting local delicacies, bathing in sumptuous spas, cruising beautiful bodies of water and snowmobiling across glaciers are just the tip of the iceberg on this fantastic voyage.
DAY 1
Warm Welcome at Hotel Glymur
Upon arrival, you will be met by your private chauffeur, who will transfer you to Hotel Glymur. Your luxurious room will be specially decorated with a complimentary fruit basket and a bottle of wine. A visit to the hot tubs is suggested to enjoy the view and relax after your journey. End your perfect first day in Iceland with a lovely three course dinner in the Red Room Restaurant at the hotel.
DAY 2
The Mystical Snæfellsnes Peninsula
Depart in the early morning to experience the magical mystery and natural wonders of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula with your private driver/guide. Pay a visit to a local shark curing farm for an extreme tasting experience of putrefied shark washed down with Iceland's famous firewater ‘Black Death.' Drive onwards to the charming fishing village of Stykkishólmur and board a boat for a scenic cruise around the numerous islands. As a special treat a small net is cast overboard and fresh shellfish delicacies are brought on board for you to taste straight from the glistening sea.
DAY 3
Reykjanes Volcano Safari & the Blue Lagoon
The day begins with a drive towards the dramatic volcanic peninsula of Reykjanes where several dormant volcanoes and extensive lava fields reside. Those in need of an adrenaline fix can try their hand at ATV/ four-wheeling for a short ride between the lava and black sands. To calm the spirit, relax in the Exclusive Bath & Lounge at the Blue Lagoon, where you are provided with a private changing room and access to a reserved lounge. If you enjoy extra pampering, try a relaxing in-water treatment or an indoor massage.
DAY 4
World of Splendid Simplicity
The stunning area of Hornafjörður awaits you, a young town partially framed by Vatnajökull Glacier, larger than all other glaciers in Europe combined. After an hour-long flight, drive to the Glacial Lagoon to enjoy magnificent landscapes. Get up close and personal to the floating icebergs on a boat trip that is a truly unforgettable experience. Afterwards, head to the base of the glacier where the driver shifts into slow gear to meander up the mountain track. Once on the glacier, ride a snowmobile across this majestic environment.
DAY 5
The Golden Circle
Of all the spectacular nature that resides in Iceland there are three ‘must-see' highlights that are easily experienced in one day. Thingvellir National Park (UNESCO) is Iceland's greatest historical site and a place of tremendous geological interest. A short ride across fertile farmlands in the south reveal the breathtaking Gullfoss ‘Golden' Waterfalls where traversing a narrow path provides close-up views of the thundering waterfall below. Only a few minutes away is the Geysir geothermal area where hot springs are in abundance, geysers explode and pools of mud bubble. Combine this spectacular sightseeing tour with a visit to a local farm for a professional display of the Icelandic Viking horse, snorkeling in crystal clear water or perhaps white water river rafting.
DAY 6
Nature's Hot Spots & Reykjavik City Sightseeing
A quick early morning flight (20 minutes) transports you to the Westman Islands, a natural geological hot spot just off the south coast of Iceland. Learn about the island's devastating 1973 volcanic eruption, view half-buried houses and feel the lava that is still warm to the touch. Back to Reykjavik in the afternoon to visit amazing museums, enjoy cutting edge design and attractive shopping, all custom-made to your taste.
DAY 7
Departure
On the way to Keflavik Airport, stop by the Álafoss Gallery, a beautiful market of art, woolen products and other Icelandic specialties. Final destination is the airport for your flight back home.
