HIGHLIGHTS
Note: In order to experience some of the incredible scenery of Iceland,
a number of the shore excursions on this itinerary require coach travel
away from the coast.
• Witness the incredible diversity of Iceland’s
landscapes forged by the powerful seismic activity that has shaped the
island’s appearance and way of life of the people.
• Visit Grimsey Island, located above the Arctic Circle, and
features impressive cliffs teeming with nesting seabirds including
charismatic puffins.
• Discover Seydisfjordur, a hidden gem on Iceland’s
east coast.
• At Eldeheimar Museum on Heimay Island, learn the stories of
the 1973 eruption that affected over 5,000 locals.
