Our expert advisors suggest a self-drive to admire the otherworldly geological wonders at your own pace. As night falls, look out for the enchanting phenomenon of the aurora borealis (Northern Lights), where wispy greens, purples, and pinks paint the skies, casting an ethereal glow over the frozen terrain.

  • "For those seeking a more curated experience during their travels, guided tours are a great option as they offer expert insights and ensure that you capture the essence of Iceland without the stress of independent travel. Expert guides will also help you find the best vantage points for the aurora, and the most secluded areas to spot wildlife."

    Megan Elliott
    Chaffey & Turner Travel Associates, Bay of Plenty
  • "Iceland’s wild beauty is unforgettable—thundering waterfalls, glistening glacier ice on black sand beaches, lava fields, and lush countryside. If you're lucky, the Aurora Borealis will light up the sky. The local folklore of trolls and fairies adds a magical touch to this extraordinary destination."
