Golden circle

The Golden Circle is a must see during your trip to Iceland - even if you've done it before! It is just one of those tours that you want to go on again and again. A spectacular waterfall, Geysir and natural beauty. Nothing beats a classic!

Whale watching

If you are interested in seeing some of the ocean's most magical creatures - the whales - then you came to the right place! Reykjavik is located right by the sea and the city centre is within walking distance from the harbour.

Snowmobile

A snowmobile adventure entails three elements: snow, speed and glaciers! Iceland is the perfect country for activities that take you out of your comfort zone, and snowmobiling is the ideal opportunity to put your driving skills to the test.
