Day 9, our longest travel day, starting with the iconic landmarks of Reykjav铆k鈥攖he Sun Voyager and Hallgr铆mskirkja. Then across the southern coast to witness the power of Seljalandsfoss, the floating icebergs of Fjalls谩rl贸n and J枚kuls谩rl贸n, and the sparkling ice on Diamond Beach before settling in V铆k.
Day 8 dedicated to the classic Golden Circle route. We explored the historical and geological wonders of 脼ingvellir National Park, witnessed the power of the Strokkur geyser at Haukadalur, and stood in the mist of the mighty Gullfoss waterfall before ending the day with local burgers in Reykjavik.
Day 7 took us from Reykjavik to the dramatic landscapes of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. Despite the grey skies, we witnessed the beauty of Selvallavatn, the iconic Kirkjufell, and the stone arches of Arnarstapi, before warming up in the geothermal pools of Laugardalslaug.
