About the trip

This guided small-group holiday with G Adventures takes in many facets of Iceland's varied landscapes, its volcanic geology and distinctive culture. Beginning around Reykjavik, there’s a Golden Circle loop with its rift valley of Thingvellir, the Gullfoss waterfall, and bubbling Geysir hot springs. The itinerary then ventures to the south and east coasts, featuring the striking black sand shores and the Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon where deep blue icebergs float silently.

A three to four-hour hike on a glacier in Skaftafell National Park offers a close look at the ice’s crevasses and geological history, followed by an exploration of Vatnajökull National Park. The Snæfellsnes Peninsula provides rugged coastal landscapes, a hot spring, and sights that have inspired fantasy writers for decades. Small hotels and guest houses provide simple accommodation, and the group includes an Icelandic farm visit that delivers a genuine taste of rural life. The constant motion of the earth beneath your feet is never far away on a tour designed with curiosity and pace in mind.
