🌋🐋🌈 🌊 Iceland Itinerary -
☀️Just did the full loop of ICELAND 🇮🇸 & it’s hands down one of the best road trips on Earth. Oh Wait! Not on earth. Its actually a mix of MOON & MARS!! 🌚🌎
🚘Here’s how we traveled ⤵️
Day 1 – Land in Reykjavík had dinner and checked in to our apartment.
Day 2 – Started the Golden Circle: Þingvellir national park, Kerið Crater, Geysir, Gullfoss (Saw amazing rainbows), and had the best Farm to table soup at the Tomato Farm 🍅
Day 3– Headed south: Seljalandsfoss (Be prepared to get drenched), Skógafoss (GOT Wala waterfall), Saw amazing rainbows near these waterfalls, Dyrhólaey Viewpoint (closes by 7 pm) , Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach** 🌊Explored VIK.
Day 4 – Drive east: Glacier Lagoon (take the boat ride!), Diamond Beach, continue along the stunning East Fjords, took the Oxi pass route for a magical drive 🏞️
Day 5 – Egilsstaðir, then north to Dettifoss (Very strong waterfall), Mývatn, Hverir, lava fields 🔥
Day 6 – Húsavík for early whale watching 🐋 → Goðafoss (So Beautiful) → headed to west 🌄
Day 7 – Explored the Snæfellsnes Peninsula: Kirkjufell, Glanni Waterfall, Arnarstapi 📸
Day 8 – Back to Reykjavík, chill & shop 🧘♂️
Day 9 – Wind down in the Blue Lagoon (Must Do, Its a Wonder), before flying out 💧✈️
Important Tips 💡
✅ Book way in advance for best slots - Blue Lagoon, boat tours, & whale watching 🗓️
✅ Layer up – weather changes throught the day. Summer is also COLD in Iceland.
✅ 24 hours of SUNLIGHT in Summer. You get plenty of time to explore everything.
❌ Avoid F-roads unless in a 4x4 🚫and Permitted by car booking company.
✅Landscape changesevery 30 mins, you get to see Iclandic horses (So Beautiful), sheeps and soo many waterfalls.🌦️You will not be bored even for a second. TRUST Me on this.
✅ Start early. You will stop 1000 times to soak in the beauty.
❌ Not stroller friendly. Be prepared to carry your kids around if they are young.
✅ Campervan = full freedom 🚐, you dont need to rush to hotels, no check in check outs. But can be less comfortable as compared to hotels and apartments.
💰 Cost ? Yes, it’s VERY expensive! Prices are 2 to 3 times as compared to Germany.
✔️ Flights: 500–800 €
✔️ Transport (car + fuel): 900–1,300 € (you can travel upto 2000-3000 KM depending on how many detours you take)
✔️ Stay: 150 - 300€ per day
✔️ Meals & snacks: 50-100€ Per day (Food is super expensive)
✔️ Tours & entries: 250–400 €
➡️ Estimated total: 2500 – 4000 Euros per person
Is it worth it ? - TOTALLY YESSS!!!!
Hope this helps!
