Departure flight to Reykjavik.

Arrival at Reykjavík Airport, followed by a shuttle transfer dropping you off at your hotel or at the nearest accessible stop. The rest of the day is free for you to start your exploration of Reykjavik, the capital and largest city in the country.

The city owes its name, "Bay of Smoke", to the steam jets that could be seen rising from hot springs in the region and which probably impressed the first European settlers. Overnight at your hotel in Reykjavik.

After breakfast at your hotel, departure toward Fridheimar greenhouse, where you’ll step inside the inviting warmth of the greenhouse and stroll among rows of vibrant tomato plants. You’ll watch how fresh produce is grown in this unique setting. Then, you’ll head to Geysir geothermal area, with its 30 meters (98 ft.) column of water, shooting to the sky every 4 to 8 minutes. Lunch at leisure.

Your visit continues with Gullfoss Waterfall, falling from the Hvita river to a depth of 32 meters (105 ft). Finally, discover Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where the world’s oldest parliament met for centuries on the shores of Iceland’s largest lake. You might even have the rare chance to walk between two continents as the national park is on the boundary between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates! Return to Reykjavik. Overnight at your hotel in Reykjavik. (Breakfast)

Enjoy your breakfast at the hotel before getting ready to depart for the stunning Blue Lagoon, a spectacular geothermal spa where lava and thermal water meet and complement one another. You will experience the ultimate relaxation, where the warm, mineral-rich waters are infused with natural active ingredients like silica and blue-green algae. Indulge in the soothing effects of the white silica mud, which gently cleanses and exfoliates your skin. Let the therapeutic minerals and salts restore balance and tranquility to both your body and soul, providing a truly rejuvenating escape. Lunch at leisure. You will be free to stay as long as you want at the lagoon, as the transfers back to your hotel are offered frequently. Afternoon at leisure. 

Evening: Northern Lights hunt:

In the evening, after dinnertime, take part in a guided Northern Lights hunt tour. Far from the glow of Reykjavik, hunt for the elusive Northern Lights. From autumn until spring, during clear and cold dark nights, it is possible to witness one of nature's most incredible displays: Aurora Borealis. On this evening tour, you may be lucky enough to see them swirling and dancing across the sky, changing endlessly their color, shape, and size. Overnight at your hotel in Reykjavik. (Breakfast)

*If Northern Lights have not been observed, another evening will be offered during your stay at no additional cost.

After breakfast at your hotel, continue your exploration of the region around Reykjavik during a full day at leisure. You can also opt for one of the optional tours available at the destination, ranging from traditional sightseeing to soft adventure activities. You can explore the vibrant Laugavegur and Rainbow Street for shopping and street art, hike up Mount Esja for stunning city views, relax at the Sky Lagoon with its geothermal waters and ocean views, and take an immersive flight over Iceland's landscapes. Overnight at your hotel in Reykjavik. (Breakfast)
