Iceland is one of my favorite places in the world and I'm excited to share this itinerary, which covers everything you need to have the most perfect week traveling the Ring Road. Plus I've included details about an off-the-beaten-path destination located in the center of the island, which was the highlight of my trip.
I explored Iceland by van and I believe it is the absolute best way to maximize your time on the island. Van travel saves you money since your accommodations, transportation (and meals if you decide to cook in your van) are all in one!
To travel the Ring Road in just a week, you'll need to be prepared to drive a lot (a few hours each day), but you'll see a lot as well!
If you're looking to hike, experience great Icelandic restaurants, be adventurous, and see the best parts of Iceland in 7-days, then this itinerary is for you.

Check out these top spots in Iceland that are either hidden gems or worth braving the crowds. Most are outdoor experiences, because the reason people visit Iceland is because of the natural beauty.
Sure, summer is the prime time to visit Iceland for the weather, but don’t be fooled—other seasons bring great things too (like the aurora). Iceland's weather changes every five minutes, its bad and good at the same time, and you might just have bad clothing if you're not having a great time. Positive attitudes are required here, and a bit of planning.
I’m Jules, and after a year living, studying, and exploring Iceland, I’m here to share my favorite unforgettable spots. I made a YouTube video showcasing months worth of footage in these locations for those who want a virtual tour. This list is based on that video.
I’ve sprinkled in some cool tips and hidden gems for each place to enhance your visit. Rest assured, I only recommend what I genuinely love. Hopefully we get along.
I’m also crafting a complete guide to every spot I’ve been in Iceland, but for now, I’m bringing you the very best. Less is more anyway, and less overwhelming.

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 4-day itinerary that I'd like to share with you. It's perfect if you are on a tight schedule but still want to make the most out of it
The itinerary is with renting a camper or 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.
