Ever wondered how it must feel like to live in a country that is perpetually covered in snow and ice but still knowing that below this there are a huge number of active volcanoes ready to erupt at any moment? Well, people in Iceland have learned to live with this fact and have settled on this land of contrasting landscapes. Despite the contrast, the place looks as beautiful as heaven would if it does exist! There are many natural formations such as the spas formed due to the huge amount of geothermal activity like the Blue Lagoon or the other ancient warm water pools. Iceland has basically got it all figured out for the different kinds of tourists. For the tourist who likes exploring cities and like living among the people, there is the capital of Reykjavik which is a hidden gem in Europe for the best dining and nightlife culture. But the rest of the lot who happen to be nature lovers, your trip is going to fall short of the choices this country has to offer to you.

If you engage with the local people, you would get to hear and learn a lot about trolls, elves, giants and other mythical creatures. The stories sound typically mysterious and can make your imagination run wild. The country is a land of myths and legends and we suggest that you should spend some time hearing these stories to know the country and its people more closely.

Here are the top priority things when you sign up for Iceland Holidays packages. Make sure you tick them all before leaving!

  1. Visit the Dynjandi Waterfall- Remember the unrealistic-type pictures you see as your desktop background? Those white-like milk waterfalls surrounded by lush green grass? Make a visit to the Dynjandi Waterfall and you’ll see it for yourself that such waterfalls do exist for real! This is one of the most beautiful water in the Westfjords part of Iceland. You can spot a number of baby waterfalls as you ascend toward the top before you witness magnificent main waterfall. In Iceland packages, systematic itineraries are planned.


  1. A not-so-sunny day out at the Rauðasandur Beach- Sunbathing is not really a popular thing among Icelanders due to the weather here. However, there is a bigger reason to visit the beach than this that is the pink and red sand. The overall sea with this mixture of two pleasant colors makes it look like a scenery straight out of a painting. You can also spot some seals while taking a stroll at the edge of the water.


  1. Watch the Northern Lights- This is probably the main reason why most people visit Iceland in the first place which is why this one had to be on this list. Iceland is one of the top places to watch the Northern lights which are also known as Aurora Borealis. It is advisable that you travel a little extra to a pace that is away from all the light pollution such as Seltjarnarnes where you have a higher luck to spot this phenomenon. Iceland Holiday tours allow you to explore at the fullest.


The other things to include in your travel could be to join the animals on Puffin Island or bath in the Myvatn Geothermal lake or even hike the beautiful terrains and parks.
