    Why Embark on a Tour of Iceland?

    This enchanting country draws adventure lovers to its remote shores, with the promise of epic waterfalls, huge glaciers, and the legendary northern lights. Positioned between Greenland and Europe, this intriguing isle is the size of South Korea, yet has fewer residents than New Orleans. With two-thirds of its population living in and around the capital city, Reykjavík, the rest of Iceland offers an unparalleled sense of space and calm.

    See where the North American and Eurasian continents meet on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Hike Vatnajökull, Europe's largest non-polar glacier, which sprawls across the landscape. Kick back and relax in steaming waters at one of the many geothermal spas. Less

    What to Do During Your Iceland Trip?

    1. Jökulsárlón

    An exciting first activity to enjoy during your Iceland trip is a visit to the striking white and blue icebergs of Jökulsárlón, one of the country’s most picturesque glacial lagoons. If you’re interested, your Tourlane Travel Expert will organize a snowmobile tour along the iceberg-filled lake to see the tongue of Breiðamerkurjökull, an outlet of the larger glacier for which the park is named. This is where ice slowly breaks off into floating chunks and travels to the mouth of Jökulsárlón.

    2. Secret Lagoon

    If you like relaxing in a beautiful outdoor setting, visit the Secret Lagoon for the chance to rejuvenate in a natural, unspoiled location during your Iceland tour. Unlike the man-made Blue Lagoon, which is one of the most popular attractions in Iceland, the Secret Lagoon is less discovered, and involves a real stretch of water that sits discreetly in the Icelandic landscape. It’s heated by the lava field below, with bubbles and temperature levels varying around the lagoon. You’ll feel at one with nature as you dissolve in the soothing warm waters, gazing at the surrounding scenery.

    3. Skógafoss Waterfall

    At 80 feet wide and with an almost 200-foot drop, Skógafoss, or “Forest Waterfall,” is one of the largest in Iceland and a must-see for those interested in geography. If there’s even a hint of sun, you are bound to catch a rainbow from the continuous spray. Climb the steps on the side of the waterfall for sweeping views of the cascade and the Atlantic Ocean—and make sure to bring a poncho.

    4. Thingvellir National Park

    Thingvellir National Park is the only place in the world where the Mid-Atlantic Ridge is visible above sea level. See where the North American and Eurasian plates meet and explore the surrounding lava fields. Enjoy the mineral-rich waters of Thingvellir Lake and try to spot a fox in the surrounding birch forests. Less
