Experience the ultimate North Iceland adventure with our Private All in One North Iceland tour, a comprehensive journey through the region’s most spectacular natural wonders. This unique, private tour is designed for those who want to explore the breathtaking landscapes and hidden gems of North Iceland, all in one exciting trip.
The journey begins as we drive along the picturesque coast of Eyjafjörður, Iceland’s longest fjord. Along the way, you’ll enjoy stunning views of the fjord’s serene waters and surrounding mountains. Our first stop is at the iconic Goðafoss Waterfall, also known as the “Waterfall of the Gods.” This awe-inspiring waterfall is one of the most popular and spectacular natural attractions in Iceland, where you can marvel at the cascading waters and learn about its rich history and significance in Icelandic culture.
From Goðafoss, we continue towards Lake Mývatn, a geological wonder created by a large basaltic lava eruption some 2,300 years ago. The lake is renowned for its stunning volcanic landforms, including lava pillars, rootless vents, and beautiful birdlife. The surrounding area is a truly magical place, offering incredible views and the chance to explore the many unique geological features.
Next, we visit Skútustaðagígar, a field of pseudo craters that were formed by the interaction of lava and water. These fascinating formations are a must-see for any nature enthusiast. We’ll also make our way to Dimmuborgir, a spectacular area known for its unique and striking lava formations. Dimmuborgir, often referred to as the “Dark Castles,” is home to towering lava pillars, caves, and twisted formations, making it a photographer’s paradise.
Our journey also takes us to Grjótagjá Rift, a geothermal hotspot and former bathing area where naturally heated water emerges from a rift in the earth. This picturesque location has historical significance, as it was once used by locals for bathing and is now a beautiful, tranquil spot to explore.
On our way to the next stop, we visit Selfoss Waterfall, known for its powerful and serene cascade, followed by Dettifoss Waterfall, one of the most impressive and powerful waterfalls in all of Europe. The sheer size and power of Dettifoss are sure to leave you in awe.
After experiencing the raw power of these waterfalls, we take a relaxing break at the Nature Baths in Lake Mývatn. Here, you can unwind in the geothermal waters, surrounded by stunning natural landscapes, and enjoy a rejuvenating soak. The warm, soothing waters are the perfect way to relax after a day of exploration.
As we make our way back to Akureyri, we stop once again at Eyjafjörður, where you can take in the panoramic views over the fjord. This spot offers a perfect opportunity for a final photo, capturing the beauty of the fjord and the surrounding mountains.
