How many otherworldly sights can you see in five days? On this introduction to the ‘Land of Fire and Ice’ we keep a nightly watch for the magical Northern Lights, while seeing snow-capped volcanoes, crashing waterfalls and magnificent glaciers by day. We marvel at the Strokkur fountain geyser, sometimes 30m high. We relax in the silky waters of the Blue Lagoon. And in the capital, Reykjavík, we witness the enormous Hallgrímskirkja (Church of Hallgrímur), a unique landmark in a country brimming with surprises. Our Iceland short breaks are fantastic for first-time visitors to this beautiful island.
