Explore the dramatic countryside of Iceland in search of the aurora borealis, tumbling waterfalls and glittering glaciers
We aim to use hotels that provide good value for money (in Icelandic terms) along with a comfortable experience.
Upgraded rooms are available throughout the itinerary – speak to your sales representative for more details.
In Reykjavik, we either stay at Hotel Klettur or Hotel Cabin, depending on availability.
Hotel Klettur
The property is approximately 15 minutes’ walk from the main shopping street, Laugavegur, so it’s easy to enjoy the cafes, bars and restaurants of the capital. If you’d prefer to relax at the hotel, there’s a ground-floor bar serving Icelandic beers and cocktails (look out for the happy hour from 5pm to 8pm) and a games room with a pool table and Northern Lights selfie wall.
Hotel Cabin
Hotel Cabin offers the same standard of accommodation and facilities, but is approximately 2,625ft (800m) further from the city centre. It also has a bar serving Icelandic beers and cocktails (with a happy hour on draft beer from 4pm to 6pm).
Hotel Laki
Within the rugged countryside, this 64-room hotel is ideally placed for spotting the Northern Lights. The property is run by farmers-turned-hoteliers Salome and Horður. Their restaurant uses suppliers that pay a fair price to farmers and serves locally sourced, seasonal produce. It also offers expansive views over the countryside, meaning guests can eat their food while gazing over Vatnajokull glacier or the Northern Lights when they come. Each room has a garden view plus a kettle should you wish to stay up late with a hot drink.
Embark on an unforgettable journey under the Northern Lights, exploring the stunning landscapes and wildlife of Iceland and East Greenland.
Experience the iconic sights of Iceland as you gasp in awe at the exploding hot springs in Geysir and lose yourself in the Northern Lights dancing overhead in Reykjavik
