What to expect?

We have put together this 4-Day package that allows you to experience awe-inspiring landscapes along with fun and exciting activities. This is the perfect 4-day package for your summer vacation in Iceland.

During this season the days are long due to extensive daylight. This means more time to explore! We might decide to extend some day tours into the evening because why stop exploring if the sun is still shining (even though it’s almost midnight!)

During this season a whole new world opens up as the highlands become accessible. Full of vibrant colors and otherworldly landscapes. We will adjust the itinerary and thus make sure you get the most of your summer vacation in Iceland.

Iceland's weather is dynamic in all seasons. Being well prepared can make all the difference.

It is recommended to have a sturdy pair of broken-in trail shoes, boots, or sneakers (depending on the tour). It is preferable to dress in layers and wear clothing that will wick away perspiration and keep you dry and comfortable. We recommend that you take a small backpack with you where you can keep extra clothes. The weather is very unpredictable. Just as we do ourselves, we advise people to check the weather forecast the evening before their tour. This means you will know which extra clothes to pack.

Here is a list that is good to have in mind when packing for an active vacation in Iceland:

Hiking Boots – Preferably of waterproof material (Gore-Tex or alternative)
Long sleeve shirt (thermal underwear) – Wool or synthetic
Light wool sweater or fleece (2nd layer)
Trousers (2nd layer) – Strong and light material that dries quickly. Wind resistant and water repelling preferable.
Rain Jacket or an Anorak with hood – Waterproof and breathable material. Gore-Tex or equivalents are preferable.
Rain trousers – Waterproof and breathable material
Liner Gloves – Wool or synthetic (polypropylene / polyester)
Socks – Wool or synthetic. One or two pairs for thermal and blister prevention
Hat or beanie – Wool or synthetic
