Day One

Arrive at Keflavík airport and check into your private luxury villa. After a light lunch, depart to Thingvellir National Park for a snorkeling/diving excursion in the Silfra fissure, a rift formed between the tectonic plates of North America and Eurasia and home to some of the clearest waters in the world. Witness a mesmerizing underwater world with visibility up to 120 meters.

Return to your villa for the evening with dinner prepared by a private chef.

Day Two

Experience Sólheimajökull Glacier with an unforgettable trek across it’s other-worldly surface. Stop for lunch afterward for a taste of local Icelandic food before heading back for an afternoon of relaxation at your private villa.

Day Three

Be greeted at your villa by your personal guide and depart to Eyjafjallajökull volcano, where you will enjoy a breathtaking snowmobile ride. Speed across Iceland’s sixth largest ice cap, covering the caldera of the volcano, and enjoy spectacular views of the surrounding mountains and valleys.

Later, visit the Skogafoss and Seljalandsfoss waterfalls. Climb nearly 500 steps to reach the top of Skogafoss, affording expansive views of the south coast. Next see Seljalandsfoss waterfall, one of the most iconic landmarks in all of Iceland.

Day Four

Fly to the seaside town of Akureyri, and take a private transfer to the port for your whale watching tour through the Eyjafjörður fjord.

Spend the rest of the day at your luxury, boutique hotel that blends into the natural landscape with its black timber cladding and living roof. With suites decked out in sheepskin, Moroccan wools, and textured walls, it’s bedrooms are a cozy contrast to the raw landscape outside.

Day Five

Speed away with your team of Huskies across the pristine snow covered landscape of the Troll Peninsula. Head back to your hotel to enjoy lunch and a leisurely afternoon.

We recommend exploring the sauna or a relaxing massage in one of the property’s treatment rooms before dinner.

Day Six

Embark on a private Nordic skiing excursion through the Troll Peninsula. Trek across this winter wonderland via this traditional means of travel and marvel at the seemingly endless stretches of untouched virgin snow before you throughout the beautiful valleys of the Troll Peninsula.

Spend a relaxing afternoon at your hotel. We recommend taking a dip in the geothermal indoor/outdoor pool, where you may be lucky to get a stunning glimpse of the Northern Lights.

Day Seven

Return to Reykjavik and explore Iceland’s captivating capital. From there, depart by private transfer to the iconic Blue Lagoon.

After settling into your accommodations, enjoy time to rest for the remainder of the afternoon. Don’t miss dinner at your hotel, which offers captivating views across the volcanic horizon.

Day Eight

Explore the Retreat Lagoon, a secluded extension of the Blue Lagoon that reaches deep under an 800-year-old lava flow.

The Blue Lagoon is one of Iceland’s most iconic attractions. This geothermal spa, located in a lava field on the Reykjanes Peninsula, is filled by volcanic aquifers 2000 meters within the Earth. The mineral-rich water is rich in silica, algae and mineral salt which is believed to stimulate circulation, while strengthening and moisturizing the skin.

In the afternoon, arrive at Keflavík airport for your flight home.

Our theory on Iceland

I love Iceland for its icy beauty. It is one of the most visually stunning landscapes on Earth with black sand beaches, basalt columns, glaciers and thundering waterfalls. Not to be missed are the Silfra fissure for a swim between tectonic plates and the iconic Blue Lagoon.

CASEY

I love Iceland for its ultra-luxe spa experiences and thrill-seeking adventures. Don’t miss the immersive Ritual experience at the Sky Lagoon in Reykjavik. Explore the remote Troll Peninsula and reinvigorate with hiking, cycling and heli-skiing. Unplug, reconnect and thrive.
