Your Destination —
Being the northernmost capital in the world, Reykjavik might welcome you with the stunning Northern Lights, when you visit in the winter. Reykjavik is always charming, and combines cutting-edge urban lifestyle with the dynamic natural wonders that embrace the city.
The old harbour is the heart and soul of Reykjavík. With a backdrop of majestic Mount Esja and the beautiful Faxafloi Bay, you’ll find world-class restaurants, cutting edge galleries, funky cafés, and quirky shops. With it all, you’re still at the heart of a working harbour, where you can watch ships come in with their daily catches.
For stunning views of the city climb up Hallgrímskirkja Church tower or visit the pearl - an otherworldly creation with a viewing platform and a revolving restaurant on top of hot water storage tanks.

Hótel Ísland is within easy walking distance of Laugardalur, the largest swimming pool in the city, and a favorite with visitors. Another popular place to visit is the Old Harbour, which has recently developed into a charming and vibrant artistic and craft area.

Your guides will point out facts along the way, so you´ll learn about Icelandic nature and culture on this 1 1/2 hr ride, its cold so please bring warm winter gloves!
You will be taken through winter countryside to the geothermal town of Laugarvatn. This pretty town near a hot-spring fed lake is a popular vacation area for Icelanders. The natural steambaths in the town have been a local favorite since the 1920s, but today the Fontana Geothermal Steambaths have been upgraded to a spa experience that is popular both with local families and visitors where you can relax in the facility's sauna & geothermal pools. Enjoy a relaxing time getting a steam bath in cabins set directly over an active steam fissure. Afterwards, enjoy a nice buffet dinner featuring area specialties with an emphasis on fresh and healthy cooking. Don´t forget to try the sweet rye bread from the spa‘s own geothermal bakery.
