    Luxury Family Holidays to Iceland 2023/2024

    Iceland is a place of extreme contrasts. On this trip, you’ll experience them all, from powerful geysers, to waterfalls and volcanic craters. There’s something for everybody, and that’s what makes Iceland family holidays so special. Take the Golden Circle tour and see Iceland’s Big Three including the geological phenomenon that is Thingvellir National Park, the site of Iceland's historic parliament. During a luxury family holiday in Iceland you can go on a super-jeep safari in the Thorsmork Valley and tour the Westman Islands to see the puffin colonies. There’s also whale watching, horse riding, and a soak in the thermal waters of the Blue Lagoon to relax and rejuvenate you. A tour guide will be entirely at your disposal for the duration of the trip.

    UK - Reykjavik

    Touching down at Keflavik's small but perfectly-formed airport is like landing in a playground, thanks to the Lego-like installations dotted around like giant building blocks. The airport characterises the country; small, colourful, friendly and straightforward. Your driver, who will be looking after you over the next three days, will be waiting to welcome you the moment you step into the arrivals hall. Then he’ll take you straight to your hotel. 

    Thjorsdalur

    Discover the countryside of Southern Iceland. Hekla Volcano, the most famous mountain in Iceland, which towers over the South. Gjain hike, a beautiful trail with rivers, pond, waterfalls, and volcanic structures all around. Hjalparfoss waterfall, where two waterfalls join in midair.

    Golden Circle

    Today, you’ll be guided round the Golden Circle tour, taking in the powerful geysers, magnificent waterfalls and volcanic craters of Thingvellir National Park. Marvel at The Great Geyser, Iceland’s most famous, and Stokkur, the most energetic. You’ll see the powerful Gullfoss waterfall and the inky blue waters that fill the crater of Kerid volcano in Grimsnes.

    South shore

    Iceland's volcanic south shore has more magnificent waterfalls and black sand beaches. It’s your playground for today! Seljarlandsfoss waterfall flows with the meltwater of the famous Eyjafjallajokull glacier, dropping a dramatic 60 feet over the cliffs. A footpath behind the waterfall affords a truly unique perspective. Be prepared to get a little wet! You’ll also see the basalt sea stack at Reynisdrangar and Skogarfoss waterfall, one of Iceland’s most beautiful. Experience the thrill of exploring Solheimajokull glacier by snowmobile and see the basalt sea stacks at Reynisdrangar before heading on to Skogarfoss waterfall.

    Westman Islands

    The Westman Islands (Vestmannaeyjar) are home to a number of large puffin colonies, which you'll encounter today as you tour the islands' volcanoes. The islands have experienced significant eruptions in relatively recent times and you’ll hear all about the one in 1963 which formed the new island of Surtsey. Further activity forced the island to be evacuated a decade later and hundreds of homes were buried by lava flow.

    Reykjanes Peninsula

    Visit the otherworldly lava landscape of the Reykjanesskagi Peninsula. At crystal-clear Kleifarvatn Lake, you’ll learn how an earthquake in 2000 drained 20 per cent of the lake’s surface, and how it regained its water levels by 2008. The next natural phenomenon is Seltun Geothermal Area. Here, you will see striking green, yellow and red soils coloured by sulphuric deposits. Your final stop is the enchanting cliffs of Krysuvikurbjarg. Watch the mighty waves of the North Atlantic Ocean hammer the island shores as you observe rare coastal bird species.

    Reykjavik - UK

    Refreshed and rejuvenated, you’ll be collected from your hotel and taken back to Keflavik airport where you’ll board your flight home.
