About the 6-day Iceland package

This 6-day package is built for travellers who want Iceland's main sights covered without arranging hotels or tours separately. It includes five nights at Reykjavík Lights Hotel or a similar 3-star comfort hotel, with a private bathroom and breakfast each morning, plus three small-group day tours and airport transfers.

The itinerary covers the Golden Circle with Blue Lagoon admission, the South Coast, and the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, with a free day built in so the trip does not feel rushed. That free day works well for whale watching, a food tour, the Lava Show, or simply exploring Reykjavík.

The Northern Lights tour is scheduled for the first evening to leave the rest of the week free. If conditions are poor the tour is rescheduled, and if it runs but no lights are seen, you can rejoin another night at no extra cost, subject to availability.

Because this is aurora season timing, it suits travellers visiting between autumn and spring. Evenings can be cold, so pack warm layers for the Northern Lights tour.
