This scenic circular tour has beautiful travelling days, frequent stops for viewing and fantastic photo opportunities. The average temperature in Iceland is 15ºC during the summer; all visits are weather permitting. The standard of accommodation available outside Reykjavik is not First Class – it is similar to Tourist Class, however, the rooms are always clean and with private facilities. The terrain is rugged and this destination is quite different from any other in Europe, therefore guests should come well-prepared and with an open mind.

9 DAYS ~ ICELAND
DAY 1 – SAT – DEPART CANADA. Board your overnight flight.
DAY 2 – SUN – REYKJAVIK. Welcome to Iceland! With its lack of traffic, trains, pollution and people, Iceland is a strangely wonderful wilderness with icecaps, glaciers, hot pools, geysers and lava fields. On arrival at Reykjavik’s Keflavik Airport, there will be complimentary transfers to your tour hotel. The rest of the day is at leisure.
Hotel: Radisson SAS Saga.
DAY 3 – MON – REYKJAVIK – VIK. Take an orientation tour of Reykjavik before heading south to Hveragerdi, the market gardening centre of the island. Continue inland to visit the former archbishop’s residence at Skalholt, followed by Geysir, the spectacular area of hot springs where hot sulphurous water shoots into the air. See the Gullfoss, the Icelandic equivalent of Niagara, before continuing to your hotel in Vik to enjoy a Welcome Drink with your fellow passengers before dinner.
Hotel: Edda Plus. (BB,D)
DAY 4 – TUE – VIK – HÖFN. Continue along the southern coast of Iceland, driving beside the black basalt-sand beaches. The highlight of the day is the National Park at Skaftafell where you will see the largest glacier in Europe, Vatnajökull. Travel on to Lake Jokulsarlon, which provided the dramatic setting for scenes in the James Bond film, Die Another Day.
Hotel: Asgardur/Höfn. (BB,D)
DAY 5 – WED – HÖFN – EGILSSTADIR. Explore the beautiful eastern coastal region, where Irish missionary monks lived 1100 years ago.

Visit the 120 metre high waterfall Hengifoss then continue to your hotel near one of the largest forests in Iceland.
Hotel: Egilsstadir/Herad. (BB,D)
DAY 6 – THU – EGILSSTADIR – AKUREYRI. Drive through the sand desert of Mödrudal to the lake Myvatn, an internationally renowned bird-watching site.

DAY 7 – FRI – AKUREYRI – BORGARNES. Take an orientation tour of Akureyri, the capital of northern Iceland, which was first established as a trading centre in 1602.

Hotel: Borgarnes. (BB,D)
DAY 8 – SAT – BORGARNES – REYKJAVIK. Travel southwards to Thingvellir, where the first meeting of the Icelandic parliament was held in 903. This is a remarkable natural site because it lies on the Great Atlantic Rift where the American and European tectonic plates meet. Back in Reykjavik, maybe take the option of visiting the Blue Lagoon to bathe in its hot mineral waters.
Hotel: Radisson SAS Saga. (BB)
