Iceland, an island nation in the North Atlantic, is known for its breathtaking natural beauty and unique cultural heritage. With a population of just over 350,000, it’s one of the world’s least densely populated countries, creating a sense of tranquility and space that is truly exceptional – however it has become more and more popular over the last few year for both cruise ship and land travelers alike
The landscape is volcanic in origin and like nothing seen elsewhere on earth The country is often referred to as ‘The Lad of Fire & Ice’ because of its seriously diverse geological features – strongly suggest you brush up on your geology before heading here! Volcanoes, geysers, hot springs, glaciers and waterfalls are all over the place making Iceland perfect for nature lovers. But it is cold. And VERY busy in the summer months – and not inexpensive. Fall brings very short days – and the northern lights – remembering that Dec 21st is the shortest day of the year
Ice caves, hiking, whale watching, snorkeling between tectonic plates, volcano watching, kayaking and more. Choose a cruise around the island or a venture on land – everybody comes back happy from Iceland
