What Awaits You
Reykjavik: A Stylish Opening Chapter
Touch down and be welcomed by the crisp northern air of Reykjavik. Settle into a sleek, kid-friendly luxury hotel in the capital, where comfort is matched by design. Wander pastel-coloured streets, explore museums, sample hidden cafés, and get your first taste of Icelandic cuisine. Let the city pace set the tone—playful, inspiring, full of light (yes, even in winter).
Where volcanoes, glaciers and warm hearths create family magic
Exploring Ice & Earth: Volcanoes, Glaciers & Canyons
Your first full days rise toward true natural wonder. Ride quad bikes over lava fields, discover bubbling hot springs and the bizarre beauty of volcanic craters. Visit dramatic canyons carved by time and water. Strap on gear for glacier walking with a private naturalist, tracing crystalline ice, learning about glacier formation, and exploring ice caves.
Family Thrills & Gentle Discoveries
Balance adventure with ease: horse riding along remote coastlines, whale watching in calm waters, snorkeling between tectonic plates where you drift between continents. For downtime, dip into warm geothermal pools, enjoy family dinners under the glow of northern lights (season-depending), and cozy evenings in luxury lodges where there’s space to breathe, laugh, and connect.
The South Coast Finale: Waterfalls & Lagoon Peace
Head further south to cascading waterfalls, black sand beaches and glaciers meeting ocean. See nature’s show at places like Gullfoss and the iconic Golden Circle, and glide across Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon in a boat surrounded by icebergs. End with relaxation at a world-renowned geothermal spa, soaking warm while looking out over basalt lava fields under wide skies.
