No Iceland getaway is complete without a visit to the Blue Lagoon. Located conveniently between Reykjavik and the airport, it’s perfect for your arrival or departure day. Soak in the milky-blue geothermal waters, indulge in a silica mud mask, and let the natural minerals rejuvenate your skin.
Spend time wandering the charming streets of Reykjavik. Visit Hallgrímskirkja Church for panoramic views, explore the Harpa Concert Hall’s striking glass architecture, and enjoy local cuisine in one of the city’s many acclaimed restaurants. Evening hours are perfect for a Northern Lights tour in winter or a midnight sun walk in summer.
If you have an extra day, a South Coast tour takes you to Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls, Reynisfjara black sand beach, and the dramatic sea stacks near Vík. This is a great way to experience Iceland’s coastal beauty in a single day.
Weekend getaway packages include carefully selected accommodations to suit your budget and style. From luxury boutique hotels in downtown Reykjavik to cozy guesthouses with local charm, every stay is chosen for comfort, location, and great service.
