Your guide will meet you at your hotel in the morning between 0815-0900. Please be ready in the lobby. Start the day by driving to Þingvellir National Park, where the ancient parliament met for centuries on the shores of Iceland's largest lake. Continue through the farmlands to the thermal area of the great Geysir and Strokkur spouting hot springs. Last but not least visit Gullfoss, known as the "Golden Waterfall".

Onwards to Reynisfjara beach, viewing the extraordinary rock formations and thundering waves of the Atlantic Ocean. Dinner and an overnight stay in the small village of Kirkjubæjarklaustur.

Day 4
Skaftafell National Park is one of Iceland's most outstanding areas of natural beauty dominated by the glacier Vatnajökull, Europe's largest ice cap. Continue to Jökulsárlón Glacial Lagoon where you can enjoy a breathtaking sight of floating icebergs on the fantastic 180m deep glacial lagoon. Back to the hotel for dinner and overnight.

Day 5
Explore the magnificent Fjarðarárgljúfur canyon in the morning. Onwards to the impressive ice-wall of the Sólheimajökull glacier, that has created the stunning coastal line of the South. Then head to the Blue Lagoon for a refreshing dip in the warm, mineral-rich waters. Return to Reykjavík for check-in at Hotel Loftleidir.  The evening is at your own leisure.
