Day 2
Volcanic Hike & The Reykjanes Peninsula

You will start the day by heading to the amazing Reykjanes Peninsula to enjoy a hike to the dormant volcano to see the newly formed lava formations and craters. The Land of Fire and Ice once again lived up to its name! Three volcanic eruptions in three years. Starting on March 19th, 2021 the eruption started in Geldingadalur valley, just south of Fagradalsfjall volcano ending in September the same year. Once again it started erupting in the same area at Meradalir valley from August 3rd to August 20th in 2022. Newly formed lava formations and craters can be seen. The hike will take approximately  1 – 2 hours each way, depending on how close you want to get, and the trail is conveniently marked. This is an ideal hike if the weather conditions are good. This is a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience and should not be missed! After all this head to Grindavík for a light lunch before taking a look at Gunnuhver hot spring, Reykjanesviti, and the bridge between two continents on your way back to Reykjavik.

Colors of Iceland – A Trip of a Lifetime!

Words cannot express how wonderful our first trip to Iceland was. We contacted Deluxe Iceland and they planned everything for us. We had a private guide who was with us for 4 of the 6 days in Iceland (he only left us when we arrived in Reykjavik). Our guide, Egill, was absolutely amazing, patient, kind, knowledgeable, professional, funny and the list goes on and on . The hotels they booked us into were wonderful, food was fabulous (this was a total surprise for us) and the activities were perfect. A lot was packed into every day, because of only having 5 -6 hours of sunlight, and that was perfect. This trip exceed our expectations. We highly recommend Deluxe Iceland, (and our guide Egill) if you want to travel to Iceland and have an experience of a lifetime!

A great way to begin retirement!!!

My husband and I chose to celebrate our “retirement” by touring Iceland. We corresponded with Deluxe Iceland’s owner, Sig, and from the initial email to the final farewell at the airport we were extremely impressed!! Sig and Fannar, consecutively, were our personal tour guides throughout our trip and both were very professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and personable. They listened to our wants and planned our trip accordingly. At the same time, they were more than willing to veer from the planned schedule if we spotted a “sight” along the route. Sig’s mantra was “no stress” which made us feel relaxed and cared for!! (I have since decided to adopt that mantra!!) We had many great conversations and laughs with both Sig and Fannar and left Iceland feeling like we had made two new friends!! A big thank-you and cheers to Sig and Fannar for making our retirement trip a memory that we will forever treasure!! Bless, bless, Deborah and Bo Passey. (Ontario, Canada) P.S. We highly recommend Deluxe Iceland if Iceland is on your “bucket list.”

Best Way to Experience Iceland

Deluxe Iceland provided the single best trip I have been on. Our tour guide (Jónas Karl) was kind, knowledgeable, and more than accommodating for our group, which ranged from ages 23 to 70. He maintained our itinerary in a professional and organized way, while giving us the flexibility to add or remove excursions if we were too tired or not tired enough. If you are traveling to Iceland, book through Deluxe Iceland and ask for Jónas!

Bucket list adventure

Private tour of ice caves amazing- our guide Pat snapped some amazing pictures of us. Lava center/farm visit pleasant personal touch. Blue lagoon -harsh outdoor weather but crazy wild experience. Jonas our guide great sense of humor and very knowledgeable about Icelandic culture as well as the sites we visited. Entire trip efficiently managed. Hotel Borg (elegant) and Ranga (rustic) excellent choices.
