Iceland is a beautiful place to visit year-round, with the activities changing depending on the time of year you choose to visit. The warmer months are fun to explore this country because the summer sun creates a never-ending amount of time for adventures, seeing the puffin community, and hitting all the must-sees while not worrying about snow.
This guide will give you the best places to hit in town and around the island whether you are planning for day trip excursions, road-tripping around Ring Road, or sticking to one section. This is the list of can't-miss things and places while visiting!
The list below is packed with many options on how to plan for a summer trip to Iceland. First and foremost, you will not be able to see everything on this list if you are going for a week or less, and you will have to make peace with that and get excited to come back. There is so much to do on this island, make sure to give yourself plenty of time for traveling between places and exploring. There are plenty of random pull-offs to explore that might sidetrack from the original plan. Below are tours and activity options to participate in - my suggestion would be to pick 1 or 2 that you are most interested in and make sure to book those.
I have been here several times and there is never a shortage of things to do. If you are looking for a more involved list custom to your desires for the best trip to Iceland, I also offer consultations 1-on-1 to help build the itinerary you desire.

I first visited Iceland 3 years ago after getting an internship out of nowhere. And since then I been coming back year after year discovering the country more and falling in love even deeper.
Iceland is the crazy combination of fire and ice, pure nature, crazy landscape and unbelievably welcoming people. Friends and family always asked me for recommendations and like that, I eventually came to make this 10-day itinerary that I'd like to share with you. You'll stop at the most iconic locations and do things like whale watching, ice cave hiking and exploring the glacier lagoon by boat.
The itinerary with renting a car in mind. If you want to travel to Iceland without a car check out my other guide on car-free and budget Iceland. You can do it solo or with as many people as you can fit in a car. You can either choose a budget version with camping or be more comfortable with apartments on the way. For example, if you were to travel with a friend the cheapest option would be renting 4x4 and camping with your own tents. That would be 480ā¬ per person plus activities and if you choose all of them total would be 890ā¬. You can explore all price options in an interactive spreadsheet.

How to explore Iceland š®šø the best in a 3-4 day exploration !
Had the opportunity to travel to Iceland during 2 different time periods (August & December). Each time was very unique with the simple fact of daylight. Here is a full list of things to do , eat & stay while in Iceland.
August Visit: Average Daylight in Iceland 16 hours.
December Visit: Average Daylight in Iceland 5-6 hours.
When planning your trip to Iceland be cautious of daylight especially when planning excursions or things to do.
Note:
Mid May to Mid August: 16 hours of daylight
September to Beginning May: 4-5 hours of daylight

Not everyone has 2 full weeks available to do the entire ring around Iceland, nor does everyone want to camp out in an RV every night or drive a large portion of each day, so this guide is for all you adventure seekers that still want to make Reykjavik your home for 5-7 days, as you see all Iceland has to offer (just within a few hours of the capital). Tons of commentary, pictures, & links alongside the actual locations, so you can know exactly what to order at each restaurant, how much everything cost, and the tips for each excursion!
This is also a perfect guide for quicker trips, like long weekends away, bachelor/bachelorette parties, couple getaways, etc. as there are plenty of excursions, restaurants, and ideas for having a perfect time in the area.
This guide will have tons to do whether you're visiting in summer (AKA puffin/whale watching season!) or winter (beautiful Northern Lights). No matter your timing, take a look at some of the best things to do & eat in one of the most beautiful countries in the world!

Above is a picture of my dad and I snorkeling in the crystal clear waters of the Sifra rift in between two tectonic plates. Snorkeling is one of my favorite memories from our 10 day father-daughter trip to Iceland in June 2022.
Iāve used our experience to develop a family friendly itinerary with activities that entertain from energetic teenager to an adult in their 50s.
This itinerary includes a full 10 day plan with a packing list and links to companies that we tested and used including: rib boats, the blue lagoon, geysers, puffins, whale watching, snowmobiling on glaciers, snorkeling Sifra, hotels, and restaurants.
This itinerary is tried and tested, covering Icelandās southern regions in addition to its capital Reykjavik. Other stops include the Golden Circle, Diamond Beach, Geldingalir Volcano, and Skogafoss.
