Operated by Fun Travel Iceland · Reykjavik, Capital Region
On a gray morning in Reykjavik the mini‑van eases out of the city with a dozen travelers and a single, sure ambition: follow the ring road and watch Iceland change every few hours. The first stop is Thingvellir, where the rift between the North American and Eurasian plates opens like a geological seam; a few days later you'll be tracing black-sand beaches, skating past blue icebergs at Jökulsárlón, and climbing soft volcanic slopes on the Snaefellsnes coast.
moderate.
10 days.
Requires a moderate level of fitness: short hikes, uneven ground, and several long driving days; comfortable walking ability for 2–3 km stretches.
Driving varies—some days are short transfers between nearby sites, others cover long stretches of the ring road up to several hours; expect a mix of 1–6 hour driving periods.
Breakfast is included every day and seven dinners are provided; other lunches and dinners are at your own expense unless otherwise noted.
Accommodation is a mix of 3‑star hotels in Reykjavik and local farm stays or country hotels along the route—comfortable, often family‑run properties.
Yes—operators reserve the right to alter the itinerary for safety or weather; the small group size allows flexible adjustments.
A boat tour among icebergs at the glacial lagoon is included; dedicated glacier hikes require separate equipment and guides and are not part of the standard itinerary.
Aurora sightings depend on season and clear skies—winter months offer the best chance, but sightings cannot be guaranteed.
Thingvellir marks the site of the Alþingi, Iceland’s early parliament (est. 930 AD), and many coastal towns grew from fishing and trade economies tied to Norse settlement.
Stick to marked trails and use staffed boat operators for glacial tours; local agriculture and delicate mosses are highly vulnerable to foot traffic, so follow guidance to limit impact.
Fun Travel Iceland operates guided outdoor trips and adventures with an emphasis on safety, stewardship, and memorable experiences.
