Before reaching the city, warm yourself up with an experience in the amazing Blue Lagoon geothermal spa, famous for its healing mineral-rich waters surrounded by jet-black basalt lava. Kick off the day with a Reykjavik city tour, which starts with Perlan (The Pearl) – a fantastic dome-shaped glass building supported by six massive water tanks, with an impressive water feature that runs from the basement into the atrium. Then, visit the beautiful Höfði House and the Hallgrímskirkja church, where you can

view the novel exterior of the Lutheran parish church tower along with the statue of Leifur Eiriksson situated at its front. Tonight, we will stay out of the Reykjavik city and towards the South Iceland for a chance to catch the northern light out of the light pollution.
Note: Due to limited accommodations available at South Iceland so as to preserve the natural landscape and lesser constructions. We may stay at either Hella or Hveragerdi depending on availability.
Today, depart for the must visit place in Iceland, the Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon. The glacial lagoon is one of Iceland's greatest wonders of nature. Iceland’s famous glacial lagoon filled with floating icebergs. Visiting the lagoon is breathtaking experience, you will have feeling like entering a magical world and you may even be lucky enough to see some seals. Today, you will also have the chance to see the Diamond Beach. This beach is called Diamond Beach because of the ice-chunks. Polished by the sea, they look like ice-diamonds. Our last stop will be Svartifoss Waterfall. Svartifoss is one of the most incredible and glorious waterfalls in Iceland - its name literally means ‘the Black Waterfall’. Svartifoss means black falls because the waterfall is surrounded by dark lava columns.
Drive towards Vik, a picturesque town
located on the most southern point of
Iceland. The road to this place is a story for
itself, from volcanic beaches to glacier and
incredible stone formations. The city is
located on a beach of black sand. You will
have opportunity to enjoy a stroll along the
black sandy shores of Reynisfjara Beach
and see the magic of nature in the form of
its famous basalt columns that stacks up
into the shape of a pyramid. Consider an
optional to the Sólheimajökull glacier,
where you can embark on a glacier hike
where an experienced guide will start off
with a safety briefing and a short lesson on
how to utlise crampons and an ice pick.
This morning, we will make our way to
Skogafoss waterfall, one of the biggest
waterfalls in the country. Due to the
amount of spray the waterfall consistently
produces, a single or double rainbow is
normally visible on sunny days. Finally, a
scenic drive with a view of Iceland’s natural
beauty and stop at the unique
Seljalandsfoss waterfall, a narrow cascade
plunging over a 60-metre high cliff. You
may even venture on the footpath leading
to the back of the waterfall for a different
perspective and equally breath-taking
pictures. After which, we will visit a farm
where you can enjoy Horse Show, featuring
the Icelandic Horses! These horses are a
unique breed of smallish horses that came
to Iceland with the first settlers from
Norway 1100 years ago. Our last stop will
be the Secret Lagoon Hot Spring. The
Secret Lagoon is a natural thermal pool, the
steam rising into the air gives the place a
surreal and mystical feel. You will have
some time to enjoy in this Secret Lagoon, a
truly enjoyable way to end the day with a
warm relaxing nature bath.
Embark on Iceland’s classic sightseeing
tour – the Golden Circle Tour – to
discover some of the most spectacular
scenery and historic sites in Iceland. The
first stop will be at Thingvellir National
Park, a place of historical significance and
geological interest. You can also visit the
Althing, an open-air assembly in the park
where Iceland’s oldest existing parliament
first assembled in 930 AD. Next, admire
Iceland’s most popular waterfall, the
Gullfoss, and if you’re lucky, you might
even be able to catch sight of a rainbow
arching over the tumbling waters flowing
into the deep gorge. Continue on to the
nearby geothermal area, a site bubbling
with activity and an abundance of hot
springs. Here, you will be able to view the
lively Strokkur geyser which spouts water
30 metres into the air every 15 minutes.
Tonight, we will drive towards West Iceland
and into Husafell.
Depart for the Langjökull glacier, Iceland’s
second largest glacier. Onboard a monster
truck, for a once in a lifetime adventure
deep inside one of the world’s largest man
made ice caverns. The caverns are
composed of an extensive system of
tunnels and chambers that stretch close to
300 metres into the solid ice cap towards a
breath taking natural ice cave at the heart of
the glacier. Then we will proceed to the
Europe's most powerful geothermal area,
Deildartunguhver, for a photo stop.
Tonight, we will make our way back to the
Reykjavik city and we will have an
opportunity to venture out for an Aurora
Hunting drive to seek out the famed
Northern Lights.
Note: We are unable to guarantee that you will observe the
Northern Lights as it is a natural phenomenon and is subject

This is the first time i joined EU holiday and definitely not my last. I must compliment your company for having such an experienced and excellent tour manager.What Rocardo delivered was far exceeded my expectation. Because of him we warmed up to each other real fast and touring around like a big family. He is knowledgable and love to share what he knows down to how to tie our winter scaves to keep ourselves warm. He was sincere, caring, unpretentious n very passionate abt his job. He made sure we are comfortable and dressed up warmly and appropriately before we depart to each destination. He was very observant and knew each of his customers well. I have read much abt the Icelandic horses n expressed my wish to see one as this was not included in our itinerary, what a pleasant surprise when i found myself in a farm next thanks to Ricardo's arrangement. I m really grateful and appreciate his effort. He was also very obliging and patience in helping us taking many beautiful photographs.What i enjoyed most was his hillarious jokes! My hats off to him! We laughted non-stop through out our journey!A good tour manager does make a lot of difference in one's trip. Please convey my sincere thanks to Ricardo for giving us such a good memory in our trip to Iceland.

My first time joining EU.Ricardo is a very experienced tour guide. He’s different from the rest ofhe tour guides that I’ve met. His unorthodox ways breaks ice between awkward and unfamiliar people fast enough for them to become family within days. His hilarious , dramatic and explosive expressions made our stomach cramped with laughters. � ���Yet, he’s a very detailed man. He make sure we are all dressed appropriately and warm enough for our activities. He will go to each and everyone of us and check from heads to toes. He carries lots of heat pad to make sure we don’t get cold. He also ensure our hands are well moisturized by going round and round with hand creams.... (the list goes on)...He’s informative and enthusiastic about his work. He learned on e job and raised questions to the local guides. He passed strong messages about saving the earth. �Ricardo takes beautiful photos. He’s ever so obliging and eager to take photos for us. He even taught us how to pose. He will stand by the cliff or lie on the freezing ice just to capture a perfect angle. �Thanks for such a memorable and entertained trip. This is my BEST guided tour ever... � We will definitely want to join his tour the next time.

It was my first time joining EU for a vacation , together with my wife, my eldest son and daugther in law and my in laws ,too. I am quite a seasoned traveller and have been joining tours travelling. Europe is quite familiar but Iceland is a brand new destination.From the first day departure at the airport ，meeting Ricky for the first time , didn't think too much of him but just another tour guide. My perception of him changed thoroughly as the tour proceeded and I must say I am impressed and enjoyed his way of handling the whole tour. He was very professional, doing all the right things at the right times. He kept us informed of the daily programs, departure time and briefed us before hand what to expect and be prepared accordingly. He will joked and tell interesting stories during long bus ride to keep us entertained and not bored . His little gestures of giving out tidbits and poKing funsat some of the tour members making us feeling thoroughly at ease and in joyful moods.The weather was excellent though freezing cold and we were very lucky to be able to see the northern lights in our first night outing !Throughout the tour ，Ricky has been most helpful to help to take pictures for all of us. He was most obliging and will help everyone who needed pictures taken, in freezing cold weather, this was most welcome and I am sure most of us really appreciated.The whole tour was almost incident free and went on smoothly , and once again , I would like to thank Ricky for a job well done , cheers !
