Summary

Iceland feels like another planet — and that’s exactly why you’ll fall in love with it. Picture soaking in steamy hot springs surrounded by lava fields, walking between continental plates at Thingvellir National Park, and chasing waterfalls so powerful they send rainbows into the sky. You’ll meet Icelandic horses with more personality than you’d expect, dine on local flavours in cozy settings, and, with luck, catch the Northern Lights dancing overhead. This is adventure dialled up — with just the right amount of comfort, charm, and connection.

Itinerary

  • Day 1

    Reykjavik: A Northern Metropolis

    Arrive in Reykjavik at any time and transfer to your hotel. Meet your CEO and fellow group members at the evening welcome meeting to gather information about your upcoming adventure. Afterwards, walk to a nearby restaurant for a welcome dinner.

  • Day 2

    Hella: Your OMG Day

    Travel from Reykjavik and stop at Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss Waterfalls, some of Iceland's most iconic natural features. Continue to Sólheimajökull Glacier for a choice of guided tour before arriving to the hotel in the evening. Later, set out on food with your CEO for a short walk in search of the Northern Lights.

  • Day 3

    Hella: The Golden Circle

    Transfer from Hella to the Golden Circle route, with stops at Thingvellir, Geysir and Gulfoss Waterfall with a lunch stop at a local greenhouse. Visit the Secret Lagoon geothermal hot springs for a swim before returning to the hotel for a free evening and another opportunity for a walk to see the Northern Lights with your CEO.

  • Day 4

    Reykjavik: Traditional and Cosmopolitan

    Icelandic horses are completely unique; forged by centuries of isolation and the dramatic local climate. They're resilient, independent, and are known to possess a gentle spirit, and you'll have the opportunity to meet them today at a working farm. Then, back in Reykjavik choose to pass the afternoon as you like; perhaps visit the iconic Hallgrímskirkja Church or explore the National Museum of Iceland where you can better connect with the culture and understand how Iceland became the haven it is today. Regroup in the evening for a dinner out on the town.

  • Day 5

    Reykjavik: The Snæfellsnes Peninsula

    Enjoy breakfast before heading toward the peninsula in a private vehicle. Make stops in Kirkjufell, Ölafsvik, Djúpalónssandur, Arnarstapi, and Vatnshellir before travelling back to Reykjavik for the evening.

  • Day 6

    Reykjavik: On Your Terms

    The day beckons with opportunity as you have an entire free day to take advantage of everything that Reykjavik has to offer. Perhaps slip into the crystal clear waters of the Silfra Fissure and drift along between the tectonic plates, go whale-watching or continue exploring the city. Later, cap off your Icelandic adventure at the oceanfront Sky Lagoon for a light dinner and to soak your worries away against a backdrop of the North Atlantic and distant mountains. Rest this evening feeling recharged, both body and soul.

  • Day 7

    Reykjavik

    The adventure finishes today, and you can depart at any time.
