Waterfall of the godsThe Goafoss or the waterfall of the gods is one of the most remarkable waterfalls in all of Iceland. Situated in the islands central north, crystal clear water cascades over the horseshoe-shaped falls which measure 40 feet in height and 100 feet in width.

Vatnajkull Jump on board one of Scenic Eclipses helicopters and experience the thrill of flying over one of the worlds great glaciers. The Vatnajkull Glacier is the largest in Iceland and the second largest in Northern Europe. It covers over eight percent of the country and as with most glaciers in this extremely geologically volatile country, there are several volcanoes under its ice cap.

Pretty AkureyriCruising into the harbor of Akureyri is one of the loveliest arrivals to be had on this itinerary. With its brightly colored houses, snow-capped mountain backdrop and welcoming atmosphere, this is a wonderful place to spend time in.

Puffin spottingBird-spotting is one of the great sports in Iceland and we take you to two of the best locations, Latrabjag Cliffs and Heimay Island. Latrabjag hosts up to forty percent of the worlds bird population for some species and is vital to their survival. Heimaey is home to around eight million puffins every summer. Our Zodiac excursions will give you a birds-eye view into this ornithological playground.

Husavik Whale Museum

One of the most visited places in Iceland, youll be offered a glimpse into the world of the whale, one of the most intriguing animals in the oceans and a species that has strong ties to the people of Iceland.

It shimmers and glitters before me. Natures laser light show, completely unique and breathtaking. A lifetime of dreaming about this moment never came close to the amazement I now feel observing it from my suites terrace. Magic. Just magic.
