Iceland’s name belies its stunning landscapes; the country’s smoking volcanoes, geothermal springs, spouting geysers and bubbling fumaroles offer an insight into the fiery beginnings of planet Earth. Landing on this remote island is like landing on another world.
The country is also covered in immense glaciers – some of Europe’s largest – and these only add to the dramatic terrain of a country where the raw power of nature overshadows all else. However, its small cosmopolitan capital offers a lively nightlife, trendy cafes, superb dining, galleries and designer boutiques.
In summer, Iceland offers beautiful walking opportunities and a chance to get back to nature, while the winter months bring the beautiful aroura borealis, snowmobiling and husky safaris. It’s an exciting destination all year round.
