Day 1 – Saturday, August 24

It’s the biggest day of the year in Reykjavík! A day when the annual Reykjavík Marathon coincides with a huge public festival called Culture Night. All morning, runners fill the streets and spectators line the sidewalks. By afternoon, the streets are filling again as Icelanders from all over converge on the capital city to gather in parks, squares, museums and performance halls. Culture Night events are locally-created, free and open to everyone. It’s sunrise to sunset excitement that begins with a starting pistol and ends with fireworks over the harbor. You will have a wonderful chance to experience good old-fashioned Icelandic vitality, creativity and hospitality. Whatever time you fly in today, we’ll make sure you get a taste of the action. Our hotel, right in the center of town, will be a perfect home base for any and all of the festivities you want to take part in.

Day 2 – Sunday, August 25

Now, the real adventure begins. After a quick trip around the Golden Circle and its popular tour bus attractions (waterfalls, geysirs and fissures) we will embark on a more unique and private tour experience. We’ll take in the wonders of Iceland on our own schedule, in our own way. First stop: lunch at the Friðheimar family farm where tomato-everything is on the menu. From there, we’ll continue towards Selfoss where we diverge from the Golden Circle and head towards Southeast Iceland, where crowds disperse and nature abounds.

Day 3 – Monday, August 26

The wonders never cease. On this third day of the trip we have close encounters with spectacular waterfalls, dramatic canyons, and remarkable black sand beaches. We’ll start the day at Skógafoss, one of the largest waterfalls in the country. Bring your hiking boots and prepare to get wet and dirty. At each stop, we go deeper than most other visitors.

Day 4 – Tuesday, August 27

You will think you’ve seen it all, but there’s more. Like an ethereal black lagoon where house-sized chunks of glacier bob and swirl as they float to sea.  After a brief stop here, we will meet up with some local guides for a kayak and glacier adventure. We will paddle into places that very few visitors get to see and get so close to the glaciers that we can actually climb onto the ice. There will always be a chance to see plenty of wildlife as Iceland is home to many sheep, reindeer, puffins, seals, whales, and of course the iconic Icelandic horses.

Day 5 – Wednesday, August 28

After a hearty breakfast, we’ll grab picnic supplies for the day. That way, we can hike and explore all day without having to stop for lunch. Our best hiking options will be at Skaftafell National Park, though we also have some less crowded places to explore along the way. Our destination for the day is the quaint seaside village of Vík with its famous black sand beaches.

Day 6 – Thursday, August 29

We’ll start the day with a little souvenir shopping before leaving Vík. Then we meet up with an old friend who leads us on a private hike through a dynamic geothermal landscape. Boiling water runs just beneath the surface of the ground in this area, leading to many hot springs in the nearby hills. In truth, the hike is NOT the highlight of this excursion. It’s the dip in a secret hot river followed by a special earth-baked meal. Bring your swimsuit and your appetite.

Day 7 – Friday, August 30

Before we go home, there is actually one more side of Iceland to see: the inside! Explore a volcano the way few dare to do by entering the The Lava Tunnel. It’s actually a 5,000-year-old lava tube with multiple caverns, and we’ll be supplied lanterns to find our way through. If we can find our way back out, we’ll be heading back to the airport (or Reykjavík) from there.

ABOUT THE ITINERARY  

We do our best to plan a complete and satisfying adventure, but the itinerary above and the activities and accommodations described within are subject to change for reasons beyond our control. As your adventure guides, we may have to make alternate plans as conditions dictate.

We had a great time with the Iceland tour. Everything was taken care of from when we arrived at the airport to getting us back for the departing flight. We saw the highlights of Iceland and got to explore some the nooks and crannies that the big tour busses will never see. Highly recommended.

A wonderful way to experience Iceland and all it has to offer!! All I can say is I want to do it all over again!!!

I am so glad that I decided to go! The hikes, waterfalls, kayaking, walking on glaciers, horseback riding (even with my rogue horse!) and being talked in to a cold plunge at the geothermal pool (which I ended up doing four times as it was so exhilarating) made for a phenomenal trip. Joe, our guide, is a man of great patience, caring and concern. I would highly recommend this adventure!

Iceland was a dream! Every detail meticulously planned. Packed so much into a day-just like I hoped. Beautiful scenery, active adventures, great people. Thank you for a wonderfully active vacation!

This was our first time with Fit 4 Adventure and we are looking forward to joining them again. We spent 7 fantastic days exploring Iceland which included hiking, kayaking among icebergs, geo-thermal hot baths, seeing beautiful waterfalls, geysers and recent lava flow from volcano, horseback riding on black beaches and best of all was a secret hot river hike/dip. Hotels were modern, clean, comfortable and our rooms had good views (such as mountains...). Food was good and fresh. We loved the tomato farm tour that had lunch served with delicious tomato soup and bread onsite greenhouses. Our guide, Joe Dann, was super nice and attentive. We had a great time. We highly recommend this tour to everyone.
