Day 1 -Arrival Day

Blue Lagoon
@juliastraveldiaries
After you arrive at the airport, head to the relaxing Blue Lagoon. This thermal spa is a must visit destination and it is without a doubt one of the most enchanting places I have ever been to. The sky-blue water is a result of the silica, algae, and other minerals in the water which provide healing benefits for the skin. It's a perfect start to your trip after a long flight.

Day 3 -Golden Circle Day Tour 

Gullfoss Falls
@juliastraveldiaries
Renting a car can be very expensive in Iceland, especially if you are solo traveling so I suggest booking a few day tours to stay under budget. The Golden Circle Tour consists of Iceland's 3 most popular attractions; Gullfoss, Geysir geothermal area, and Thingvellir National Park.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Julia
👋🏻Greetings fellow travelers! I’m Julia, your travel curator. With a passion for exploration and adventure, I am here to help you create your travel dreams into reality. I have been excited about traveling from an early age. My family and I would go on vacations every year growing up, to places like Mexico, Florida, and the Dominican Republic. I even visited Turkey when I was 8 years old. After I graduated college, I went on my first solo adventure to Iceland. This was one of the best trips of my life and it’s what made me fall in love with solo travel. Since then, I’ve visited Portugal, Spain, Italy, Austria, UK, Hungary, & France solo. I have also been to Hawaii, Turks & Caicos Islands, California, Texas, & Colorado in the past few years with friends/family. In 2024, I plan to take many more trips that I am super excited about. Making travel guides and sharing my travel experiences and travel tips have been a passion for me. Whether you are planning your first solo trip or a friends/family vacation, I hope to inspire you with your upcoming venture :)
