ITINERARY
Day 1
SMALL GROUP EXCLUSIVE ACCOMMODATION Enjoy an overnight stay that’s just right for small groups with an overnight getaway on the Westman Islands (or Heimaey to the Icelanders). Speaking of groups, you’re sure to be outnumbered by the largest puffin colony in the world, who call the islands home
Day 2
EARTH SCIENCE Learn about the volcanic eruption in 1973, considered the largest natural disaster in Iceland’s recent history. The eruption began on January 23rd on the island of Heimaey, the only populated island of the Vestmannaeyjar archipelago. After the evacuation of the inhabitants and during the five months while the eruption lasted, there was much uncertainty as to whether the island could ever be repopulated. Explore bird cliffs during our tour to the Westman Islands, walk up to the volcano crater, and visit the “Pompei of the North“ (Eldheimar Museum), a volcanic excavation project
Day 3
WILD HORSES The Icelandic horse is local to this volcanic land and is one of the purest horse breeds in the world., Having arrived here on the very first ships of the settlers, these majestic creatures have remained loyal friends ever since
Day 4
SMALL GROUP EXCLUSIVE Embark on the perfect small group adventure on a Viking sushi tour while sailing around Breiðafjörður's innumerable islands. Get a glimpse of the fjord's fairytale-like scenery, featuring dramatic rock faces along with the strongest ocean currents anywhere on Iceland's coasts. A highlight of your tour is the towing of the dredge along the ocean floor as a variety of shellfish are scooped up from the bottom of the ocean with a haul of scallops, sea urchins, crabs, and starfish, some of which can be eaten fresh. (Think scallops and sea urchins!)
Day 5
ICELAND IN MINIATURE Snaefellsnes is a large peninsula extending from West Iceland, often nicknamed "Iceland in Miniature" due to the wealth and diversity of natural features found there. A common knowledge amongst Icelanders is that the area is the only part of Iceland where you can see all of the unique natural elements in one place, from untouched lava fields, tall volcanoes, mystical glacier and black beaches to white beaches, a national park, and hazardous cliffs along the coastline
Day 6
NATURAL WONDERS Volcanic eruptions are unpredictable and dangerous events, where access is more often than not prohibited to the public due to poisonous fumes and other volcanic dangers. With this mesmerizing show you will be able to experience real flowing lava in a safe environment.
