Customizable 7 Day Summer Holiday Vacation Package of Icelandic Wonders

You'll land at Keflavik International Airport, located in the middle of a lava field on the Reykjanes peninsula. On your way to Iceland's capital city, you could stop at the Blue Lagoon. This world-renowned spa is known for its healing waters, vivid azure colors, and luxurious treatments. It is in the middle of a moss-covered lava field, giving it an otherworldly atmosphere.

If you add the Blue Lagoon, it will be arranged according to your flights. If there is no time to visit the lagoon today, it can be added to another day. Your travel consultant will be able to arrange this for you. There is still plenty to see and do in Reykjavik if you have extra free time.

Once you arrive in the city and settle into your accommodations, you will have the rest of the day to explore and experience the capital. Visit a museum, browse the city's many boutiques, or enjoy world-class coffee.

Check out the Harpa Concert Hall and Conference Center, the city's leading cultural hub. It's the favorite venue for concerts, exhibitions, and festivals. Moreover, it has a beautiful facade featuring 714 glass panels with LED lights, illuminating the building at night.

Next, about 2.4 miles (3.9 kilometers) from Harpa, is the Perlan museum. It features interactive displays and exhibits about the country's rich nature. Check out the museum's hemispherical rotating glass dome that doubles as a viewing deck for visitors to appreciate the cityscape.

Remember to stop at the Hallgrimskirkja church, about 1.6 miles (2.5 kilometers) away. Standing 245 feet (74.5 meters) tall, the church is Iceland's tallest and one of Reykjavik's most famous landmarks.

In the evening, the city comes alive with multiple bars and cocktail lounges offering live music or shows.

There is also an astonishing variety of restaurants for you to visit. The midnight sun keeps the light flowing, and the city is in a state of twilight the whole night.
 

On this day, you can either take it hot or cool.

Your first option is to crank up the heat and join a trip to Thrihnukagigur volcano, where you'll head into the earth to visit the magma chamber of this now-dormant giant. The cavernous space might remind some of a dragon's treasure trove, where vibrant minerals paint a symphony of colors on the stone walls.

Upon reaching the volcano's crater, you'll board an elevator crane that'll take you deep into the magma chamber. Before you descend, the guide will equip you with a helmet, a harness, and other safety gear.

The journey toward the center of the volcano takes about six minutes, covering 198 meters. During the slow descent, you'll marvel at the magma chamber's unique beauty, featuring smooth walls with incredible formations.

Various colors will welcome you as you go deeper into the magma chamber. You'll see vibrant formations in blues, yellows, reds, oranges, and violets. This visual spectacle results from the intense heat and pressure of the volcano's last eruption around 4,000 years ago.

The second option is to keep it cool - quite many degrees colder than you might be used to! Take the day tour to Langjokull glacier, where you'll have the opportunity to whiz across the glacier on a snowmobile before exploring it from the inside and visiting ice halls deep within the glacial blue ice mass.

Before the ride toward the ice cap, you'll wear essential safety equipment such as a helmet, a balaclava, a pair of gloves, and a snowmobiling suit. An instructor will also guide you in operating the snowmobile.

Also in the area is Hraunfossar, a cascade of multiple waterfalls rushing over the lava and melding with the river. Close by is another amazing waterfall, Barnafoss, which tumbles down into the same river.

After the day, you'll either cool down or heat up in downtown Reykjavik. There's always something tasty and fun to occupy your time.

Today, you have the option of exploring the city better or heading back out into the wild Icelandic nature.

For your first option, you can join a tour into the Highlands. You'll board a super jeep that will take you to the Landmannalaugar natural paradise. Nestling in the shadow of the mighty volcano Hekla, the area is known for its beauty because of the colorful streaks in the rocks and cliffs.

Landmannalaugar boasts stunning rhyolite mountains in various colors, dyed greens, pinks, and yellows from volcanic activity. It also has many beautiful natural hot springs you can bathe in.

Also, there is a wide range of activities, such as hiking and some high-quality geothermal bathing in the hot springs that nestle under the rocky hills. Landmannalaugar connects to the valley of Thorsmork by the country's most popular multi-day hiking trail, Laugavegur. Despite this, they couldn't be more different. At Landmannalaugar, very little life grows, and the land is exposed to the highland elements.

For those who love nature and want to see Iceland's less easily reached parts, this is the perfect trip to the ideal place.

If you'd rather relax in the city, you can stay in Reykjavik and get to know the culture better. You could check out a museum or simply do as locals do and hit the geothermal pools to listen to the latest gossip, discuss politics, and enjoy the healing powers of warm water.

If you add on the 24-hour City Card, you will get free access to the Arbaer Open Air Museum and the Settlement Exhibition. You can also enjoy the city's many geothermal pools, the Reykjavik Family Park and Zoo, and other museums and galleries. The City Card also allows you to ride the city's public transport for free.

You could also make your way to Reykjavik's Old Harbour, hop on a boat, and take a whale-watching tour, or, if you prefer, your Blue Lagoon visit could also be placed on this day. Whichever you choose, the day will undoubtedly be a blast.
