You arrive in Iceland and find your vehicle will be waiting for you. Reykjavík is only a short hop from the airport, where you can check into your hotel and then explore the most northern capital city in the world. Hip and happening, you will not struggle to find something to see and do in this vibrant town.

Today, you head out to the Reykjanes peninsula, home to five volcanic systems and also Iceland's youngest attraction – the volcano in the valley Geldingadalur, which erupted in 2021. Here, after a short hike, you can marvel at the newly formed and still warm lava fields!

The Reykjanes peninsula also has a lot to offer, such as bubbling geothermal areas and rugged Atlantic coasts. Optionally, you can enjoy a swim in the famous Blue Lagoon after the hike, before you drive to your accommodation along the South Coast.

Iceland’s South Coast is extremely popular, and it is not difficult to see why that is. The waterfalls of Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss are two of the biggest attractions, and if they weren’t enough to make your jaw drop, the black sand beach of Reynisfjara will be sure to do the job. There is a lot to discover here, and you can take all the time in the world!

Alternatively, you can opt for a longer drive and a tour to the world-famous Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon. Here you can see fascinatingly colored icebergs and maybe seals in the lagoon. This is sure to be an unforgettable day.

Today's day can be made flexible: Either you take your time and explore the sights of the South that you neglected yesterday on the way to Jökulsárlón, or you head straight for the Golden Circle.

The Gullfoss waterfall is arguably the most famous waterfall in Iceland, it is breathtaking, and its two steps glisten in the sun. This is followed by the incredible Strokkur geyser, whose boiling water shoots up to 40 meters into the air from the depths of the earth. The accommodation is located in the area of the Golden Circle, which gives you time to explore here tomorrow.

As you head towards the west of Iceland, you can visit another of Iceland’s UNESCO World Heritage sites, Þingvellir National Park. This is one of the most geologically and politically significant sites in Iceland, as this is where the oldest existing parliament was founded (Alþingi).

If you have already marveled at Geysir and Gullfoss the day before, you can optionally take a hike to the second-highest waterfall in Iceland, Glymur, on the drive to your accommodation in Borgarnes.

Today you go to the beautiful Borgarfjörður region, where you can marvel at hot springs, historical sites, and magical waterfalls. Reykholt is home to the ancient hot pot of the poet and scholar Snorri Sturluson, but you too have the chance to take a bath: The Krauma geothermal bath is ideal for a break from sightseeing.

Deeper inland, the Hraunfossar and Barnafoss lava waterfalls are waiting for you. Hraunfossar is like no other waterfall in Iceland and ripples very flat from an elongated lava field, laterally, into a glacier river. At the end of the day, you return to Reykjavík and can enjoy the last evening in the lively city center.

Today, you have another chance to explore the city, or simply do whatever you feel to make the most of your last day in Iceland, before heading home.

The city is your playground! Whatever you end up doing, one thing is for sure: You will be heading home with a head full of memories, dreaming about your next visit.
