Itinerary

Reykjavík Base

Your expedition commences. We depart from the capital city, leaving the urban landscape behind as we head directly into the striking, mythical volcanic terrains of South Iceland.

Thingvellir National Park

Walk the literal divide between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. A site of profound geological wonder and the historical birthplace of Alþingi, Iceland’s ancient parliament.

Efstidalur II Farm

A boutique stop at a traditional family-run dairy farm. Indulge in artisanal, homemade ice cream and farm-to-table treats while observing the daily life of an authentic Icelandic homestead.

Brúarfoss

Revered as ‘Iceland’s Bluest Waterfall’. Fed by the Brúará glacial river, this hidden marvel boasts an electric, unnatural cyan hue that provides the perfect contrast to the surrounding dark rock.

Geysir Hot Springs

Traverse the steaming Haukadalur geothermal field. Stand in anticipation as Strokkur, a highly active geyser, violently erupts boiling water up to 30 meters into the sky every few minutes.

Gullfoss Falls

Behold the raw majesty of the ‘Golden Waterfall’. Watch millions of gallons of glacial meltwater violently cascade down a two-tiered drop into a plunging, ancient canyon.

Brúarhlöð Canyon

A dramatic, under-the-radar gorge where the Hvítá river forcefully squeezes through jagged, dark breccia rock pillars. A paradise for landscape photographers seeking tranquility.

Kerið Crater

Conclude your journey walking the rim of a 3,000-year-old volcanic crater. The surreal contrast of its vivid sapphire lake against blood-red volcanic rock leaves a lasting imprint of Iceland’s raw beauty.
