FAQs
Reykjavik: What’s the weather like in summer? The climate in this region is unpredictable due to its geographical location. In shoulder season (May, September, and October) you can expect temperatures to vary between single digits and warm sunny days, while from June until September temperatures can reach up to 25 C (77 F) during the day with July being the warmest month. During summer, Iceland also regularly experiences 24 hours of daylight, so you can truly make the most of your sightseeing!
Reykjavik: What should I pack for a summer trip? It is always a good idea to bring a warm windproof jacket. No matter which time of year you decide to travel, it can get quite cool at night especially outside of the cities, so we recommend that you bring a warm jacket or fleece. It is also recommended to bring along comfortable walking shoes, waterproof jacket & pants, sunscreen and a hat.
Reykjavik: What should I pack if I’m planning to join the optional Glacier Hike? Your trip offers an optional glacier hike and with the varied weather conditions of Iceland its essential you dress for the occasion. Please pack the following: Hiking boots (if you do not have these, you are able to hire them from the Mountain Guides) Waterproof jacket Warm socks Hat and gloves Warm trousers/pants (pack a waterproof outer layer if you have it)
Reykjavik: Will I see the Northern Lights? The Northern Lights are more common during the winter months, when it gets darker earlier and the sky is clear and free of light pollution. The Northern Lights (AKA the Aurora Borealis) are a natural display of coloured lights in the night sky of the northern hemisphere. They’re a natural phenomenon, so it can never be guaranteed. But you’ll have a higher chance of seeing them the further up north you go. (Fingers crossed...)
Reykjavik: What currencies will I encounter on this trip? The currency of Iceland is the Icelandic Krona (ISK). ATMs are readily available, and most places accept credit/debit cards.
Included Experience
Reykjavik: Enjoy the first meal together with your group and dine on a dinner of seasonal Icelandic specialties. Toast the beginning of your adventure as a team - the possibilities are endless!
Geysir: Get your camera ready for this jumping geothermal wonder as we explore the heart of Iceland, Thingvellir National Park. And if you miss the photo op don’t worry. It’ll happen again in five minutes. Luckily!
Midgard: Step into the world of Icelandic farm life with a visit to Efstidalur - a farm run by four siblings whose ancestors have worked the land since 1750! You'll get the chance to try their locally made ice cream, Skyr yoghurt, feta cheese and much more.
Midgard: Grab your new BFFs to relax in the rooftop sauna and then soak in the hot tub at your hotel.
Fridheimar: Learn all about geothermal heating and greenhouse horticulture - AKA, how do you grow such delicious veggies in such a chilly climate?
Skaftafell: Look out for the folklore-famous pony-sized horses with teal blue eyes. Fun fact: they have their very own social security numbers (yep, that's how beloved they are!).
Skaftafell: Get your camera reel a-ready for some of the weirdest and most wonderful waterfalls you'll have ever seen in your life!
Skaftafell: Walk the black sands on the world-famous Reynisfjara Beach and look out for the basalt pillars and unique rock formations on the coast.
Skaftafell: Marvel at canyons, volcanoes & glaciers on a drive through Kirkjubaejarklaustur, a beautiful rural town of just 500 people.
Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon: We ain't joking when we tell you that this lagoon will absolutely blow your mind. You have some time to take in the glacial scenery & check out the world-famous Diamond Beach.

ITINERARY
ITINERARYReykjavik
Welcome to Iceland, home to the world's most swoon-worthy sights. You'll soon be heading home with a camera roll filled with epic vistas and a head full of cherished memories. But first thing's first, it's time to get acquainted with the quirky and colourful buildings of Reykjavik (this captivating capital is cool in more ways than one). After checking into your hostel and having time to unwind, we'll bond over a tasty local dinner, feeling the frisson of excitement about the fine days that lay ahead of us.
Reykjavik to Midgard
After breakfast this morning we're headed to Midgard Base Camp - but loads to see and do on the way as we make our way around the Golden Circle. First, a stop at the spectacular Thingvellir National Park before heading onto Efstidalur, where we'll enjoy a Farm to Table presentation and get a tantalising taste of the local cuisine. Then we're off to the jaw-dropping geothermal fields of Geysir and a visit to the magnificent Gullfoss Falls. The evening offers the opportunity to relax in the rooftop sauna & hot tub at Midgard Base Camp and reflect on an incredible day in this amazing country.
Midgard to Kirkjubaejarklaustur
Rise and shine! After breakfast we're headed across the astonishingly beautiful south shore. It's time for more spectacular waterfalls, the famous Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss. After gawping at their thundering beauty, we're headed past the Mýrdalsjökull Glacier to Reynisfjara beach. Take a walk along the uniquely black sands, admire the crazy rock formations and remind yourself you're still on planet earth.
Kirkjubaejarklaustur to Vik
Another day, another included breakfast and another awe-inspiring National Park to head to. Vatnajökull is named after Europe's largest ice cap, and is the largest National Park in western Europe. Cameras at the ready, we'll check out Svinafellsjökull, one of the most beautiful of the glacial outlets emerging from Vatnajökull. Today is your chance to sign up for an optional glacier adventure. We'll make a quick stop at this jaw-dropping lagoon, known for its still blue waters. Plus, you can warm up with a drink from a cute little cafe here. We'll arrive in Vik after a day of fresh air and exploring the glorious sights that Iceland has to offer.
Vik to Reykjavik
After breakfast today we're headed towards the Reykjanes peninsula. Visit geothermal sites, explore dramatic coastlines and charming villages, or enjoy views over Lake Kleifarvatn with its mesmerising rock formations and legends of mythical creatures. Today you'll have a chance to take a dip in the hot springs of the Blue Lagoon.
Reykjavik
Pack your bags back in pretty Reykjavik and try to stay on the high induced by all the wonders we’ve taken in. We’ll say our farewells as the trip wraps up, leaving us with a deep appreciation for this special country.
