Highlights

  • Witness a rare and awe-inspiring total solar eclipse in open seas, far from artificial light and crowds
  • Circle Surtsey, a young UNESCO volcanic isle where life begins, and explore Heimaey’s dramatic, ever-changing landscapes.
  • Uncover the wild beauty of the Faroes, Shetland & Skye—where seabirds, basalt cliffs, and Celtic myths meet in timeless harmony.

Itinerary Day to Day

Day 1

Reykjavík

Iceland’s capital stretches along the edge of a vast bay in the west of the country. Perlan, the “Pearl of Reykjavík”, a museum located on ’Oskjuhlið hill, offers a panoramic view of the lush, green landscapes. A little further, one can easily spot the signpost showing the way to the evangelical Hallgrímskirkja church, and to the historical centre where one can stroll along the Skólavördustígur and the Laugavegur, two lively streets with charming small shops. For some relaxation just outside of the city, visitors have the opportunity to visit the Reykjanes peninsula and its famous thermal lagoons of the Blue Lagoon.
