Take the shuttle bus to your accommodation or the nearest bus stop. Check-in at your hotel. The rest of the day is free for you to start your exploration of Reykjavik, the capital and largest city in the country.

Ingolfur Arnarson, the first Icelandic settler, built his farm on the peninsula where Reykjavik is today. The city owes its name, "Bay of Smoke", to the steam jets that could be seen rising from hot springs in the region and which probably impressed the first european settlers. Overnight at your hotel in Reykjavik.

Northern Lights hunt:

In the evening, after dinnertime, take part in a guided Northern Lights hunt tour. Far from the glow of Reykjavik, hunt for the elusive Northern Lights. From autumn until spring, during clear and cold dark nights, it is possible to witness one of nature's most incredible displays: Aurora Borealis. On this evening tour, you may be lucky enough to see them swirling and dancing across the sky, changing endlessly their color, shape, and size. 

*In the event that Northern Lights have not been observed, a second evening will be offered the next day with no additional cost.

Breakfast at the hotel. Full day at leisure to continue your exploration of the region around Reykjavik. You can also opt for one of the optional tours ($) available, ranging from traditional sightseeing to soft adventure activities. (Breakfast)

After breakfast at your hotel. Departure toward Fridheimar greenhouse, where you’ll step inside the inviting warmth of the greenhouse and stroll among rows of vibrant tomato plants. You’ll watch how fresh produce is grown in this unique setting. Then, you’ll head to Geysir geothermal area, with its 30 meters (98 ft.) column of water, shooting to the sky every 4 to 8 minutes. Lunch at leisure. Your visit continues with Gullfoss Waterfall, falling from the Hvita river to a depth of 32 meters (105 ft). Finally, discover Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where the world’s oldest parliament met for centuries on the shores of Iceland’s largest lake. You might even have the rare chance to walk between two continents as the national park is on the boundary between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates! Return to Reykjavik.
