Over the past few years, Iceland has been getting more and more popular by tourists. Nicknamed the Land of Fire and Ice because of its many volcanoes and glaciers, there are endless opportunities of gorgeous natural wonders to explore. Over 60% of the people that live in Iceland, live in the capital city of Reykjavik.

If you are not renting a car to avoid the intimidation of the slippery roads during winter, all of the activities below can be done right in Reykjavik or by a tour with transfer. I’ve gone ahead and provided all the links you need for each tour that I have personally done myself just this year (2022). Have a wonderful time exploring Iceland. 🇮🇸

Iceland 10 day South Coast Adventure

Hello, fellow traveler! 

Thank you for choosing my shop to help you have a fantastic trip to Iceland. This was stop 1 on my 8-weeks of fun backpacking trip, aka my quarter-life crisis trip.  My best friend Ally and I did a 3-day road trip when we went backpacking for two months in 2023. We regretted not staying longer, so I have the road trip Ally, and I did, plus a 5-day for you because I recommend at least 5 days for Iceland. If you can swing it, I recommend doing the entire ring road. Iceland is f*** epic and wasn't as expensive as people made it out to be.

Islandia 🇮🇸

Geysir is a famous geothermal area in Iceland that's home to a number of hot springs and geysers. The most famous geyser in the area is Strokkur, which erupts every few minutes and shoots boiling water up to 30 meters into the air. You can watch the eruptions, explore the surrounding area, and even dine at a nearby restaurant. Many tour busses stop here so it can get a little crowded. Make sure to wear waterproof colding because you will get wet! 

You will stop at three main spots on this Golden Circle Day Trip. The first is Geysir Hot Springs. You can grab more food, drinks and souvenirs as well as walk through the geysers. Strokkur is one of the first stops you’ll hit while on the Golden Circle. This geyser bubbles up and shoots a jet 15 feet above you, nearly every 10 minutes. It’s a quick, easy and accessible sight to stop at for any age or level of fitness.

Parking fee for cars. 

Plan to spend about one hour at Geysir Hot Springs to walk the geothermal area and watch a few eruptions of the famous Strokkur geyser
