For all the details and to secure a spot: Iceland

This 8-day small Iceland route takes you along the South Coast and Golden Circle to see black sand beaches, take an awe inspiring glacier hike, soak in geothermal hot pools, and visit waterfalls. We will visit iconic sites like the Seljalandsfoss, Skógafoss waterfalls, the black sands of Reynisfjara beach. Further east we will visit the Fjaðrárgljúfur gorge with glacier hiking at Vatnajökull National Park on Falljökull glacier, as well as the Secret Lagoon and a tomato farm with arguably the most delicious lunch on the island, and the largest hot springs in Iceland, Gunnuhver. Taste homemade skyr at a dairy farm, take an optional horse through the countryside, and learn about how the local startup community is transforming the fishing industry and keeping it sustainable for generations to come.
