Day 1 – Travel to Iceland

On your way to Reykjavik and your hotel, enjoy a visit to the world famous Blue Lagoon, one of Iceland’s most popular attractions. A natural geothermic spa, the warm seawaters are rich in minerals and silica which gives the water its mesmerising bright blue appearance.

View the beautiful presidential residence on the outskirts of the city and the observatory known as The Pearl (from outside), plus the magnificent Hallgrímskirkja Church and many other attractions.

After dark, you will travel north, away from the city lights, to hunt for the incredible Aurora Borealis. A stunning natural light display, seeing the Northern Lights is a truly unique experience.
