Offered in: English

Join this winter round tour that covers the so called ring-road around Iceland and the magnificent Snaefellsnes peninsula with its spectacular landscapes and mystical powers. Experience an ever-changing landscape every day and learn about Iceland’s geology, culture, and history. And travelling around Iceland in winter gives you the chance to see the Northern Lights when the weather conditions are ideal

Included is accommodation for 9 nights including breakfast and dinners for 7 nights. In the countryside we will stay in farm stays that will give you chances of interacting with local people, taste local food such as lamb and fish, and observe local animals such as dogs, horses and goats. And by travelling around Iceland in a mini-van with maximum 12 people in a group, you will feel like you are exploring Iceland independently.
