LOOKING FOR SOMEWHERE EXCITING TO EXPLORE IN WINTER?
Visiting Iceland in winter can be a wonderful experience. The winter landscape is beautiful, there are fewer people and lots of fun winter activities to do. Let´s take a look at some of our popular winter tours!
South coast adventure with glacier hike tour combines some of the most beautiful sights Iceland has to offer with an amazing outdoor activity, hiking on a glacier. The tour’s first stop is at the Skógafoss Waterfall. It is not only one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the country, but a famous one as well. It was featured on the popular Game of Thrones show. The highlight of the journey is the visit to Solheimajokull. But this is just to name a few stops on the tour.
The Golden Circle is often at the top of the bucket list when coming to Iceland. The Golden Circle and Kerid Crater offers all the classic stops with some handpicked extras. We will for example head to Thingvellir, where the first Icelandic parliament was founded in 930 AD, one of the oldest in Europe. Gullfoss, the golden waterfall, one of the most powerful on the whole continent, is our next stop. We will also stop at Kerid volcanic crate, which is 55 meters deep and 270 meters wide. At the bottom you will find an amazing aquamarine blue lake.
Relatively short on time, but wish to make the most of your day? Then The Golden Circle and Secret Lagoon tour is made for you! You will see the classic stops, Thingvellir National Park, the world famous Geysir, Gullfoss, and have a wonderful last stop at the Secret Lagoon. The Secret Lagoon was first opened in 1891 and is still a popular go-to place among the locals in the area. The temperature of the water is around 38-40° Celsius and is the perfect way to end this great day.
Snaefellsjokull volcano is also known as the entrance to the core of the planet. That you may know if you have read the novel, Journey to the center of the Earth by Jules Verne. The Spectacular Snaefellsnes Peninsula Natural Park tour is spectacular indeed. The Snaefellsnes Peninsula has everything Iceland has to offer: Lava fields, waterfalls, local folklore, and seals.
