Your itinerary in detail

DAY 1: ARRIVAL IN REYKJAVIK

Upon arrival in Iceland, you'll collect your car directly from Keflavík International Airport. Your adventure begins right away as you drive through the lunar landscapes of the Reykjanes Peninsula. This unique, volcanic landscape, adorned with moss-covered rocks and framed by distant mountains, serves as a mesmerising gateway to Iceland's natural marvels. You'll spend your first night in Reykjavík, the country's vibrant capital.

 

Driving: Approx 31 miles

 

 

DAY 2: SNÆFELLSNES PENINSULA

 

Set off north-west towards the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. This region, often referred to as "Iceland in Miniature", captures the very essence of the country, with its geological diversity, mystical atmosphere and spectacular coastal panoramas.

 

Your first stop after the town of Borgarnes will be Gerðuberg Basalt Columns, an impressive wall of beautifully formed hexagonal basalt columns. Next, visit Ytri Tunga beach, known for its golden sands and seals lounging on the rocks. Continue to the charming coastal villages of Arnarstapi and Hellnar, connected by a scenic walking trail offering magnificent views of the Atlantic Ocean. 

 

From here, head to Snæfellsjökull National Park, where you'll find the 700,000-year-old glacier-capped Snæfellsjökull volcano. Explore scenic trails, lava caves like Vatnshellir, and coastal highlights such as Djúpalónssandur, a striking black pebble beach once home to a thriving fishing village. Don’t miss Kirkjufell near Grundarfjörður, Iceland’s most photographed mountain, paired perfectly with the nearby Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall. End your day in the charming town of Stykkishólmur.

 

Driving: Approx 193 miles

 

 

DAY 3: BORGARFJÖRÐUR

 

From Stykkishólmur, head south to Borgarfjörður, a region steeped in sagas and natural wonders. Your first stop is Reykholt, the former home of medieval historian, poet and politician Snorri Sturluson. Here you can visit Snorri's geothermal pool and a museum recounting his life and writings.

 

Continue to Deildartunguhver, Europe's most powerful hot spring, impressive for its steaming, boiling water. Afterwards, a short drive takes you to the unique Hraunfossar and Barnafoss waterfalls. Hraunfossar, known as the "Lava Waterfalls", is a stunning series of cascades emerging from beneath a lava field, while nearby Barnafoss, or "Children's Falls", is steeped in legend, adding a mystical air to its rushing blue waters.

 

Your day concludes in Borgarnes, a small coastal town with a beautiful view over the fjord. With cafés, museums and plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking and birdwatching, Borgarnes is the perfect place to unwind and end your day.

 

Driving: Approx 137 miles

Continue your journey to the Geysir geothermal area in Haukadalur valley. Although the Great Geysir is mostly dormant, you’ll be amazed by its neighbour Strokkur, which erupts every few minutes, sending boiling water up to 30 meters into the air.

 

A short drive from Geysir brings you to Gullfoss, or "Golden Falls", one of Iceland's most stunning waterfalls, with several viewpoints to appreciate the waterfall's beauty from different angles. The day ends in the lively town of Selfoss, where you'll find plenty of services, shops, restaurants and a welcoming atmosphere to relax after your adventures.

 

Driving: Approx 142 miles

 

 

DAY 5: SOUTH SHORE 

 

Driving along Iceland's south coast is an expedition through some of the most breathtaking scenery the island has to offer. Start at Seljalandsfoss waterfall, where the water cascades over a cliff into a serene pool below, allowing visitors to walk behind the falls for a unique perspective. 

 

Continue to Skógafoss, a powerful waterfall famous for its impressive height and frequent rainbows. Nearby, you can find Dyrhólaey, which offers panoramic ocean views and a natural sea arch, as well as Reynisfjara beach, known for its black sand, basalt columns, and strong waves. Finish the afternoon in the picturesque village of Vík í Mýrdal, with its iconic church overlooking the sea. Make your way back to Selfoss towards the end of the day.

 

Driving: Approx 183 miles

 

 

DAY 6: REYKJANES PENINSULA - BLUE LAGOON 

 

Start with a visit to the coastal church of Strandarkirkja, a place steeped in legend and serenity.

Here you can relax in the warm, milky waters of the famous Blue Lagoon (entrance fee at an extra cost). 

 

Keep exploring along the rugged coastline all the way to the natural pool of Brimketill, carved out of lava, and then on to Gunnuhver, a geothermally active area with steaming vents and mud pools. Marvel at the stunning cliffs of Reykjanestá, crowned by the historic Reykjanesviti Lighthouse, before walking across the Bridge Between Continents, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates meet. A final drive through the lava fields brings you back to Reykjavík, where you'll spend your last night in Iceland. 

Driving: Approx 124 miles

Laugavegur is the beating heart of the city, a street brimming with bars, restaurants, and boutique shops - stop by one of the cosy cafés to try Icelandic favourites such as rye bread with toppings like herring or trout. If you’re looking to soak up some culture, visit the Reykjavík Art Museum to see modern art by Icelandic artists, or the National Museum of Iceland to dive into the city’s Viking roots.

 

Of course, Reykjavík is also the ideal starting point to discover the wild landscapes of this stunning island - join a tour of the popular Golden Circle, a 230 km route taking in Þingvellir National Park, the Geysir geothermal area and the breathtaking Gullfoss waterfall.

In case of a cancellation, the full rental price is non-refundable if the renter opts for a non-refundable booking. For refundable bookings, the rental needs to be cancelled more than 24 hours prior to the rental pick-up for a full refund. In case of a no show or cancellation within 24 hours prior to the rental pick-up, the full rental price will be charged. Early returns are allowed.
