Your journey begins the moment you land at Keflavik Airport, where your private guide from the Arctic Face team is waiting to welcome you. With a deep knowledge of the land and its secrets, they’re here to make your experience uniquely yours.

First, we’ll introduce you to Iceland’s famed bathing culture. Just a short drive from Reykjavik, the Sky Lagoon invites you to unwind in its oceanfront sanctuary. Let the 7-Step Ritual guide you through a series of warm and cold water therapies, steam baths, and fresh Arctic air—each step a new sensation to awaken your senses.

Refreshed from your Sky Lagoon retreat, You will check in at the 5-star Edition Hotel.

Afterward, take a leisurely stroll through Reykjavik’s lively city center. Your guide will lead you to hidden corners of this vibrant city, from off-the-beaten-path art spots to the coziest cafés, where you can savor the pulse of local life.

As night falls, prepare for your first encounter with the Northern Lights. From the Old Harbour, set sail on a Northern Lights cruise, leaving the city lights behind as the vast Icelandic seas open up before you. With the night sky above and the glimmering Aurora Borealis dancing in the distance, you’ll feel the quiet awe of nature’s most magical show.

Today, we venture into the iconic Golden Circle. Discover Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site steeped in history and natural beauty. From the erupting Strokkur geyser to the thundering Gullfoss waterfall, you’ll see Iceland’s most cherished landmarks up close. 

Our guides, who know these sites like the back of their hand, will share the stories that bring these places to life.

Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the location of the world's first parliament; Geysir geothermal area and Gullfoss waterfalls. At Thingvellir National Park history and nature meets. 

This is the only place where the Mid-Atlantic Ridge comes to the surface and forms a rift valley between tectonic plates. Filled in the fissure created by the separation of the plates is glacial water that has been filtered underground for decades through hardened, porous lava rock. The filtering process of the glacial water makes Silfra one of the clearest bodies of water on earth with up to 120 meters of visibility.

The history was made at Thingvellir when in 930AD was formed Althing, the oldest parliament still in operation. Therefore Thingvellir is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage for both, natural and cultural importance.
 

Time for an adrenaline rush with a snowmobile ride on Langjökull Glacier. This exhilarating adventure lets you experience the breathtaking beauty of Iceland’s glaciers like never before. As you zip across the pristine ice, the thrill of speed surges through you, taking you to places few have ventured.

As you glide over the glacier, take in the quiet and the crisp air, appreciating the beauty of nature around you. This perfect mix of thrill and peace makes for an unforgettable experience in Iceland’s wilderness.

At Geysir geothermal area Strokkur, "the butter churn”, erupts about every 4-8 minutes. The big Geyser, which gave name to all other geysers, has been in recent years inactive.

Gullfoss is an iconic waterfall located in South Iceland on the Hvítá River which is fed by Iceland´s second biggest glacier, Langjökull. On a sunny day, shimmering rainbow can be seen over the falls.

Today, we follow the ribbon of road that winds along Iceland’s wild South Coast—a landscape where fire and ice have shaped a world of dramatic contrasts. Towering waterfalls, ancient glaciers, and volcanic black sand beaches create a journey that feels like stepping into a living, breathing painting.

Feel the cool mist on your skin as Skógafoss thunders down before you, its endless cascade mesmerizing in its raw power. Then, step behind the delicate veil of Seljalandsfoss, where the world takes on a new perspective through a curtain of falling water. At Reynisfjara, the Atlantic crashes against towering basalt columns, sculpted by time into something almost otherworldly.

The true adventure begins as we venture into the heart of Mýrdalsjökull Glacier, where an expert guide leads the way through a labyrinth of shimmering ice caves. Beneath the thick glacial surface lies a frozen world of ever-shifting tunnels, their walls glowing in shades of blue that seem almost unreal. These formations, carved by nature over centuries, offer a fleeting glimpse into a world few ever get to see.

As night falls, return to the warmth of Hotel Rangá, where a feast of Nordic flavors awaits. And if the sky is kind, the Northern Lights may once again dance above, their colors rippling across the vast Arctic sky.

After a relaxed morning at Hotel Rangá, we set out to explore the untamed landscapes of the Reykjanes Peninsula, a region shaped by fire and time. This rugged corner of Iceland has stirred to life in recent years, with eight volcanic eruptions since 2021—signaling the start of a new geological chapter after centuries of quiet. Here, the ground itself tells a story, and our expert guides bring those stories to life.
