ReykjavíkNot only is Reykjavík an interesting, compact-sized city to explore in its own right, it is a great springboard for experiencing many of Iceland’s key highlights, a visit to the Blue Lagoon or a tour of the Golden Circle.

South CoastIceland’s south coast stretches eastwards from the Reykjanes Peninsula across a diverse region that encompasses black-sand beaches and jagged sea stacks and basalt columns, and offers access to rhyolite hills further inland. It’s home to several notable volcanoes, easily accessible glaciers and a vast sweep of wilderness that offers ample opportunities for hiking, 4x4 tours, glacier walks and visits to offshore islands. Rugged mountains, powerful waterfalls and a smattering of hot pools provide a variety of experiences with a network of walking trails and off-road tracks linking the various sights. Stops include:

  • Seljalandsfoss waterfall

  • Gljufrabui waterfall

  • Skógafoss waterfall

  • The fishing village of Vik

  • Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach

  • Dyrholaey Viewpoint

  • Vatnajökull National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

  • Fjallsarlon Glacier Lagoon

  • Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon Boat Tour

  • Breidamerkursandur (Diamond Beach)

East FjordsThe least populated area of Iceland and one of the least visited, the Eastfjords are often overlooked by visitors, but to do so would be a mistake. The region feels like one of the most authentic in the country with little fishing villages clinging to the sides of steep fjords, landscapes imbued with living folklore and traditional life continuing largely as it has done for centuries. Highlights include:

  • Mount Vestrahorn

  • Mount Eystamorn
