Iceland Explorer Programmes

A superb experience is to trek through the location of Europe's largest volcanic eruption. The Laki Lava fields are a twisted expanse of tunnels, canyons, craters and volcanoes spread out at the foot of the mighty Vatnajokull Glacier. Followed by visits to the Blue Lagoon and tours of the Thingvellir National Park, Geysir and the Gulfoss waterfalls, itineraries provide a complete introduction to the country's most accessible highlights.
