Iceland Ring Road - Adventures, Puffins and Local Dishes!

Hosted by

Kartavya

Guided trip
I'm sure you'd know enough about Iceland if you've reached here, and it can only be underappreciated! My name is Kartavya, and I'm 29 years old, studied business and architecture, love mountains more than the beach, and travel to be inspired. We are two friends from India, v. v. excited about this trip, and interested in sharing it with you to meet new people and exchanging some culture, and frankly saving some money too. We are going to be getting a nice SUV and driving (it'd be really cool if you can drive too, it's a lot of fun) all around Iceland, through cities and towns, majestic waterfalls, beaches with crystals, and ice caves and cliff tops. Packed with comfortable adventure, nature at its peak, watching puffins and seals, the midnight sun, bathing in geysers and hot springs, catching waterfall gushed winds, and staying in the most picturesque homestays - it can hardly get better! Cooking most of the nights ourselves, we'll also definitely try out some local food and nice restaurants. The price includes: - Accommodation - Food - Car rental - Activities We might save some money too, in which case I'll return the remaining amount proportionately. Personal expenses like shopping and alcohol are not included. Our accommodation: We will mostly be staying in Airbnb and cabins, and depending on the places I'm trying to make sure we get a kitchen to cook. Looking forward to traveling with you!

Vik is the southernmost part of Iceland with the famous diamond beach with black sand and crystals. It's a perfect town to explore the Vatnajokull national park and see some Ice caves. We shall reach Vik on 17th evening and leave for the next destination on 19th morning!

This is where we get to see giant boulders in turquoise blue waters of Storurd. North East Iceland is also famous for getting to know the Huldofolk (hidden people), elves and ghosts! Oooooooh... Next day we see the excitingly peculiar lunar landscape in Dimmuborgir on the way to Akureyri.

Akureyri

Day 7-9
We reach the town of the north and use it as a base for 2 days to explore the less traveled, pristine and peaceful parts of North Iceland. The thermal baths of Lake Myvatn and Iceland's most beautiful Godafoss waterfall. This is going to be so relaxing! The Sorcerer's cottage in Holmavik is also worth a visit if we can make it.

WILDLIFE in the North western cliffs(Latrabjarg) - puffins, whales, seabirds. While seeing all this in the day, we reach back to Hvammstangi to get a good night's sleep, before visiting the Snaefellsjokul National Park, and horse ride on the Longufjorur beach, on our way back to Reykjavik.

Reykjavík

Day 10-11
While ending our trip, here comes the most awaited thing to do in Iceland - peacing out in the Blue Lagoon or one of the other Spas, we finally finish in a relaxed tone and get a night next to the airport, to be able to fly back to our freshly rejuvenated lives!
