Amazing Family Adventure

Short breaks

Day 1

Arrival in Iceland. On your own transfer to your hotel in Reykjavik. Airport transfer is not included, but we are happy to help you arrange shared or private transfers. You might also enjoy visiting the Blue Lagoon or the new Sky Lagoon on your way to the city. (This needs to be booked in advance; let us know and we’ll set it up!)
Your Iceland experience starts when you turn on the hotel’s hot water—the water comes right from underground volcano-heated springs and heats most buildings in Iceland! The rest of the day is yours to enjoy Reykjavik. Perhaps you’ll visit one of the city’s museums, several which have exhibits for children. One of our favorite activities among our families at Iceland Travel is a visit to one of the geothermal outdoor pools. It’s so fun to relax and play in the unique warm water, and you´ll see many Icelandic families out enjoying the same activity. Each facility has a pool area for small children, as well as arm floats. Some pools even have slides. One of the most popular swimming pools in the area for families is Laugardalslaug, located in the Laugardalur recreational area. This area is also home to the Family Park and Icelandic Farm Animal zoo. Remember to bring a swimsuit and towel if you visit a swimming pool. You can also rent these at the pool.
Please note that most hotels start check-in around 14:00 &#8211; 16:00 (2:00pm 4:00pm)

Arrival and relaxation

Day 2

Breakfast at your hotel. Make your way to the Grandi area of Reykjavik’s Old Harbor neighborhood. You can get there by city bus or taxi or enjoy an easygoing walk through the charming town center (about a 30 – 40-minute stroll from most hotels). Once the area where fishermen worked, the Harbor has become a neighborhood for boat tours and whale watching, museums, art galleries and a fantastic foodie culture.
This morning you are booked for the FlyOver Iceland amazing flight simulated experience. (Check your confirmation for your booked time). FlyOver Iceland utilizes state-of-the-art technology to give you the feeling of flight. In addition to the flight, you’ll also be immersed in interactive multi-media experiences to learn about Iceland’s nature and culture.
Enjoy two fun and educational experiences before your flight. First, you’ll meet a friendly old Icelandic storyteller sitting by the fireside in a Viking longhouse. He’ll weave a wonderful tale as shadows act it out behind him. Afterwards, step into the Well of Time, where you’ll discover Iceland’s past. You’ll see how violent forces of fire and ice created the island millions of years ago.
Then it’s time for the flight! Board special flight seats where you’ll hang suspended, feet dangling, before a wrap-around 20-metre (66-foot) spherical screen. A film whisks you away on an exhilarating journey across Iceland. Soar over glaciers, waterfalls, vast volcanic wilderness and black sand beaches while soul stirring music plays. Special effects, including wind, mist and scents create an unforgettable experience as if you are actually flying over untamed wilderness wonders. (The flight is about 8.5 minutes; combined with the pre-flight shows the whole experience is about 35 minutes).
The Old Harbor area has plenty of activities your family will love.

Family Discoveries in Reykjavik

Day 3

Breakfast at your hotel. Pick up your rental car and set off to explore the Golden Circle, Iceland’s most famous collection of natural wonders! (Please check your confirmation to see what time your visit to the Lava Tunnel has been booked.).
First, visit Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. You will see where the Vikings formed the world’s oldest parliament in the 9th century and learn about how Icelanders would travel from all over the island once a year to meet here and make important decisions for the country. This is also where the European and North American tectonic plates meet. You can walk on a path that takes you between both continents!
Afterwards, visit the surreal Geysir geothermal area where a series of hot springs and mud pools bubble away. The Strokkur geyser shoots a high plume of steam into the air every few minutes; keep your camera ready! Nearby is Gullfoss, the Golden Falls, believed to be Iceland’s most beautiful waterfall. You can wander on footpaths leading around the falls for amazing views of the glacier water plunging into a deep canyon.
During the day, we also suggest a visit to Fridheimar, a geothermal greenhouse where vegetables are grown using geothermal energy. There is a café where you can enjoy some of the best tomato soup in Iceland. The Efstidalur dairy farm is a great place to stop to try home-made ice cream. In the ice cream café you can peek through a window overlooking the barn and see the cows who provide the milk for the ice cream.
On your way back to town, head to Raufarholshellir, the Lava Tunnel. (Make sure to arrive no later than 15 minutes before your booked time). The certified cave guide will take you into this magnificent lava tunnel. Created by a volcanic eruption over 5.000 years ago, the tunnel shows spectacular colors and lava formations. Your guide will tell you about how the tunnel was created. You might feel as you are seeing a volcano from the inside out!
Return to Reykjavik and drop off your car. Overnight in Reykjavik.

Golden Circle and Lava Cave

Day 4

Breakfast at your hotel. Today you have a choice between two tours: a SuperJeep tour to Landmannalaugar or a minibus and SuperJeep tour to visit the South Coast and a wilderness ice cave.
Landmannalaugar Option:
Board a SuperJeep, a specially outfitted vehicle with large tires that can handle the unpaved rocky mountain tracks of the wilderness. Your driver guide will whisk you through the southern farmlands onto an unpaved mountain track leading towards Mount Hekla. This beautiful volcano is one of Iceland’s most frequently erupting (last eruption was 2000). In the Middle Ages, people in Europe believed it was the entrance to Hell. You’ll get as close as possible to the volcano before heading into a fire and ice landscapes so bizarre that you’ll understand why Hollywood movies have been made in this area. Drive through a river and into Landmannalaugar nature reserve. This is a strange world where steam rises from the ground and the mountains show brilliant colors of red, orange and gold. If you’re up for it your guide will take you on a short hike to get a better view over the mountains, glacier ice and steaming hot springs. Then relax in a unique river that is a blend of cool spring water and underground hot springs—it’s the perfect temperature for a bath. You’ve experienced nothing like this: to bathe in a mountain hot spring in a colorful world of ice and fire. Depending on road and weather conditions, today’s tour might visit beautiful Thorsmork, a beloved nature getaway for Icelandic families. 
Katla Ice Cave (Under the Volcano tour) Option:
You&#8217;ll start with a scenic SuperJeep drive along Iceland’s southern coast. You’ll soon head into what seems like a rugged no man’s land. Enchanting glaciers and mountains surround you.
Your SuperJeep stops near the otherworldly Kotlujokull glacier. It’s time to put on your crampons and helmet and take a short walk to the opening of the ice cave. Depending on the conditions you might need to climb a few steps on ladders to the ice cave entrance. The climb is not difficult for anyone in reasonable physical shape. Beautiful layers of different colored ice and volcanic ash unfold from the ice, painting impressive stripes in the glacier. Your guide will tell you all about the history of the glacier, the ice cave and the area. When you are back out from the glacier, your group will walk around and see if any smaller ice caves are accessible.
On the way from/to Reykjavik, you will also visit the stunning Seljalandsfoss waterfall and the picture-perfect Skogafoss waterfall.
Maximum tour size: 14 participants ▪ Level of difficulty: Easy for people in fair physical condition
Overnight in Reykjavik.
