About the trip

This escorted tour by G Adventures takes you across Iceland’s varied terrains at a steady pace, suitable for families with children from seven years upwards. The route covers classic sights in a logical sweep: starting with Reykjavik, you visit the Perlan Museum and embark on a whale-watching expedition to seek minke and humpback whales in their subarctic waters.

Throughout the week, the itinerary includes the Golden Circle trail, with stops at Thingvellir National Park, Gulfoss waterfall and Geysir Hot Springs. You’ll also explore lava tunnels and black sand beaches near Skogafoss and Seljalandsfoss waterfalls. A horse farm visit and the local geothermal bakery in Laugarvatn provide moments of cultural insight, while the Secret Lagoon in Fludir offers a chance to bathe in naturally heated waters.

The trip balances active days with opportunities to absorb local history at the Skogar Open Air Museum and enjoy time in the Westman Islands. The long drives between locations are broken by frequent stops to stretch legs and admire the raw Icelandic scenery, which often includes multiple weather changes in a single day. G Adventures' dual Expedition Leaders support and guide the group, helping with insights but leaving room to explore independently.
