Experience Overview

Iceland's otherworldly aura seems to heighten at the winter months, when viewing of the Northern Lights is at its peak and the contrast between the cool, crisp air and its steaming geothermic hot springs heightens. Couple that with hiking through Þingvellir National Park, meeting the famous Icelandic horse, exploring lava caves, and chasing waterfalls, and you've got yourself a spectacular winter adventure like no other.

Highlights

  • Explore Iceland's glaciers and waterfalls
  • Keep your eyes peeled for dazzling displays of the Northern Lights
  • Explore the Golden Circle and meet the famous Icelandic horse
