Itinerary

Day 1: Waterfalls and Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon

Stop At: Skogafoss, Skogar Iceland
Here you can walk from the car park to the waterfall (about 3 minutes by foot) where you can enjoy Skógafoss up close and even feel the mist on your face.
Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Víkurskáli, austurvegur 18, 870 Vík, Iceland
Comfort stop where you can use bathroom facilities and/or buy lunch (own cost).
Duration: 45 minutes

Stop At: Glacier Lagoon, Skaftafell National Park Route 1, Jokulsarlon 781 Iceland
Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon appears before your eyes in great swathes of glittering blue and white. Your gaze follows the gradients of pale blue, turquoise, teal and deepest navy as you peer down into the crystal clear waters. You might recognize this otherworldly and achingly beautiful location from films such as Die Another Day and Tomb Raider. 
Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Guesthouse Gerði, Höfn, Iceland
Situated between the mountains and the ocean, Gerði is a peaceful place to explore the coast or hike around the other beautiful surroundings. Dinner is available for purchase at the hotel.

In the winter, if the skies are clear, the hotel’s rural location provides an ideal viewing spot for the Northern Lights if they appear.
Duration: 16 hours

No meals included on this day.
Accommodation included: Overnight at Gerdi Country Hotel
