Iceland tours discovery guide

When it comes to raw, natural landscapes, the Land of Fire and Ice delivers in a big way. But there’s more to this Nordic isle than its waterfalls, geysers, and glaciers—modern cities, Viking tales, and warm locals await on our Iceland tours, too.

What to know before you go

POPULATION
Roughly 384,000 people call Iceland home. That’s just 10 people per pristine square mile.

CAPITAL
Situated on the southwest coast, Reykjavik is home to about a third of Iceland’s citizens. The walkable, welcoming city is also a global leader in sustainability.

CULTURAL QUICK TAKE
Many Icelanders believe in, and are extremely respectful of, elves. Locals call them huldufólk, or hidden folk.

WHAT TO GO FOR
No matter when you embark on one of our Iceland tours, you’re in for dramatic landscapes, mesmerizing skies, and some of the world’s best lamb and seafood.

Two seasons. Two distinct sides of Iceland.

Iceland dazzles all year round, but winter and summer see the country’s rugged landscape at its frozen and freshest best, respectively. Travel on one of these two beloved Iceland trips for a taste of these seasons’ highlights.
