Tour Itinerary
Arrive in Reykjavik and transfer to your hotel for the next 4 nights.
Set out from Reykjavik today to drive part of the Golden Circle and see its major highlights, including Thingvellir National Park, Geysir National Park and the mighty Gullfoss waterfall. As you drink in some of Iceland's most impressive natural sights, take advantage of stops at local farms and restaurants to sample incredible local food including Brennivín and traditional dried fish. Along the way, you'll also make stops at Friðheimar Greenhouse and Ingólfsskáli Viking Turf House. Between these and the food, you'll grow truly close to Icelandic culture. (B, L)
Today offers a real treat: the chance to eat your way through Kopar's 9 course Adventure tasting menu. Captained by multi award-winning Chef de Cuisine Ylfa Helgadóttir, Kopar is a real foodie's destination, offering unusual but delicious combinations of flavours, all with a classic Icelandic influence. The 9 course Adventure menu is chosen by the chef team and sure to be a fantastic introduction to some new tastes. The restaurant also offers a Vegan or Fish option, so those who don't eat meat or animal products need not miss out.
After dinner, hop aboard a boat and make your way out of Reykjavik harbour for 15-20 minutes. This takes you well away from the light pollution of the city and offers the perfect opportunity to go in search of the northern lights with an experienced guide at the helm. If you're lucky, you'll see the stunning ribbons of colour flickering high above the cold, cold sea. (B, D)
