Journey to the Center of the Earth

Arrival at the international airport Keflavík and meeting with the guide there. After the flight, you can relax in the Blue Lagoon, a curative thermal spring that hits from a depth of 2 000 meters, forming a lagoon with white siliceous clay on the bottom. A high concentration of silicon and minerals gives the water a rich blue tint. Then drive to Reykjavik, the capital, over lava fields, around 50 km. Accommodation in hotel in Reykjavik.

Breakfast in the hotel, then departure.
Today we will make a move to the north of the island, where on the open lava spaces herds of famous Icelandic horses graze. First we'll drive to a small town called Hvammstangi, located on the shores of the fjord, where we will visit the workshop for the production of products from Icelandic wool. And then we'll visit the Glaumbær Museum, which is an old farm with houses built of peat. The oldest building of the peat complex is the kitchen (built in 1760), and the newest is the main living quarters, or baðstofa (built in 1876). Walking through the house, you feel those distant times with all your senses: touching the rough peat walls, watching how the thin rays of light make their way through the tiny windows, and breathing in the air, filled with the smell of the earth. Then we drive onwards to the charming town of Akureyri - the northern capital of Iceland. Hotel accommodation, overnight there. Dinner.

Breakfast in the hotel and departure from there with luggage.
"Whale capital" Húsavík - a small cozy town on the very north of the island, near the Arctic Circle, is considered the most convenient place to observe whales. The probability of seeing sea giants here is very high - 98%, as it is written in one of the brochures. We will take a tour Whale watching and see killer whales, whale-humpback, fin whale and the largest mammal on Earth - a blue whale. After meeting with the whales, we head to the national park Jökulsárglúfur, one of the main attractions of which is the horseshoe canyon of Ásbyrgi. There is an opinion that this canyon was formed after two grandiose glacial floods on the Jökulsá-á-Fjöllum glacial river, which occurred immediately after the end of the ice age. And one of the local legends says that the canyon was formed from the entry into this place of one of the hoofs of the eight-legged horse of the god Odin. Transfer to the waterfall Dettifoss - the biggest waterfall in Iceland and Europe. It seems to be not as high (45 m) and wide (100 m), but it is the most powerful in speed and volume of water, which with extraordinary noise and power falls down through its rocky rapids. Further our way lies along the largest black lava desert of Iceland to the city of Egilsstadir. Hotel accommodation, overnight stay. Dinner.

Day 7 Glacial Lagoon Jökulsárlón - Skaftafetl National Park (~ 360 km)
Breakfast in the hotel and departure from there with luggage.
Today the whole day will be dedicated to the glorious glaciers in the south of Iceland: the largest glacier in Europe, Vantajökull, Skaftafell National Park, the glacial lagoon of Jökulsárlón, in the emerald waters of which powerful icebergs drift. We will cruise on the Glacier lagoon among the thousand-year-old icebergs. Further our way lies through the sandy desert and endless fields of moss lava over the South of the island, to the city of Vík. Here we will take a short walk along another black beach and admire the famous lava sculpture "Fingers of the Troll". It's just a fantastic place: black sand, blue sea and towering over it basalt columns Reynisdrangar. These columns, carved by the harsh sea, according to legend, were once trolls, petrified from the sun. The final chord of this day is the foot of the famous volcano Eyjafjallajökull, where there are two magnificent waterfalls - Skógafoss and Seljalandsfoss. Dinner. Overnight in the south.

Transfer to Keflavík international airport; departure homewards.
