ManonNew
The ring road portion was the most enjoyable. Helga is an absolutely amazing guide. All the waterfalls, diamond beach, rural hotels were great. Seeing puffins was excellent. All the information she shared was interesting. In the Westfjords the beach was lovely. Added stop at Flateyri was super.
AnneThe incredible Martina exceptional tour leader, driver, so knowledgeable of birds, plants, scenery and wildlife. Martina made my tour amazing. We had a great group and food was excellent
JeanetteOur bus driver/guide and his passion for his country and his consideration for older travels. The accommodations were all grand, food though expensive was over the top in quality as well as presentations. But the ride through the ice bergs was the highlight as we have so done at both ends of this.
GilbertPeter our tour guide was Awesome! He did a great job driving and being our guide. We had small group, only six. We really enjoyed that! We sure got to see and do a lot of stuff in Iceland! Everything was done professionally. We came in early so we could go to the Blue Lagoon, I'm glad we did that. We felt that everything was explained correctly. We had enough time in each place that we stopped.
WilliamPuffins, whales and Reykjavik.
StephenOur tour guide Hilmar was great! Last day extension tour Rebecca was great too. They explained everything, narrated local legends and stories, provided scientific facts about geology and made this an unforgettable experience. The farm experience is unforgettable. At some places amenities in the hotels could be better.
JyotsnaWhy take a tour of Iceland
The challenge of traveling Iceland is the conditions. A clear morning in Reykjavik can turn to horizontal sleet by Vik, mountain passes close without notice, and the highland roads open for only a few months each summer. Drivers who know the routes check the road and weather services every morning and reshape the day around what the island allows, which is the difference between reaching Jokulsarlon and turning back before you reach it. The chances of seeing the Northern Lights also relies heavily on conditions, seeing them depends on cloud breaks that shift hourly and on knowing which valley to drive to after dark. Glacier walks and ice caves need equipment and someone who knows the ground. A guide also fills in the geology and the sagas behind places that are otherwise just beautiful scenery.
Plan your perfect trip to Iceland
How long in Iceland?
When is the best time to visit Iceland?
Iceland works all year, and the season decides what you see rather than whether you should go. Winter brings long nights, ice caves and the northern lights. Summer brings almost endless daylight, open highland roads and full access to the Ring Road and the Westfjords.
Temperature figures are day and night averages for Reykjavik, so the north, the interior and anywhere exposed to wind feel colder. Weather changes quickly in every season, and road conditions matter more than the forecast temperature.
Before you go
A few practical tips to help you travel smart and make the most of your time in Iceland.
Money
Iceland uses the Icelandic Krona. Cards and contactless are accepted almost everywhere, including remote fuel stations and small cafes, so there is little need to carry cash. Some fuel pumps ask for a PIN, so check your card has one before you travel. Tipping is not expected.
What to pack
Waterproof and windproof outer layers matter more than thick ones, worn over warm mid layers, with sturdy waterproof boots for wet paths and black sand. Bring swimwear for the geothermal pools, a hat and gloves in any season, and an eye mask if you travel under the midnight sun.
Food & drink
Lamb, seafood and skyr are the staples, alongside rye bread baked in geothermal heat and the hot dog stands Icelanders line for. Tap water is among the cleanest anywhere and should always be chosen over bottled. Hot water carries a faint sulfur smell, which is normal and harmless.
Safety
Crime is very rare and the main risks are weather and terrain. Wind can slam car doors and close roads at short notice, so check forecasts and road conditions daily. Keep to marked paths near hot springs and glaciers, and never turn your back on the sea at black sand beaches.
