Unforgettable Luxury Romantic Iceland Tour

The dramatic landscapes of Iceland hold a special place for any couple who is wanting to explore its magical scenery. It awakens a hunger within you to experience life at its fullest. Your first glimpses of Iceland’s wonders will come when you arrive at Keflavik Airport. Upon your arrival, you will be embraced by the snow-capped mountains and long, lazing rivers that look as if they have been drawn with a knife. Your private transfer will greet you and escort you to meet the dogs for your dog sledding journey around Langjokull glacier and the Golden Circle. During this journey, you can snuggle under the thick woolen blankets with your loved one as your musher leads you towards the second largest glacier in Iceland: Langjokull.

A fine spray of snow may tickle your cheeks as your team of dogs pulls you along the 361 square mile glacier. From here, your musher will guide you to the Geysir Geothermal Field to view the tremendous power of geysers that spew scalding water into the air. It is a shocking but thrilling opportunity to witness Iceland’s elemental power at its best. As you settle back into the dog sled and venture towards Thingvellir National Park, which is the only UNESCO World Heritage Site on the mainland, you can reach out and touch the winter wonderland of Iceland as it passes by you.

The pure beauty of Thingvellir lies within the dried magma fields that are covered in a blanket of bright and soft green moss and surrounded by glacial springs and jagged mountain peaks. Standing in its presence will take your breath away in one glance. The last stop of your day will be at Gullfoss, which is Iceland’s beloved and most famous waterfall, where the powerful rapids inject energy into everything that they touch. On your way to your luxury accommodation, you can look up at the skies and watch the glowing green and purple northern lights perform their dance for you. It will be a sight to behold as you are warm and cozy under the blanket with your loved one.

After a hearty breakfast, your guide will lead you to the skies to experience exclusive remote locations that are rarely seen by visitors, let alone from a private helicopter. As you hover above the first stop of Haifoss, which is Iceland’s third tallest waterfall, you will experience the thrill of seeing a waterfall from above. Not many people are provided with an exclusive opportunity such as this one, and you will be absolutely enthralled while you are in the air and admiring all of the magnificent feats of nature. The highlands of Landmannalauger are made up of rhyolite, which is a rock that ranges in colors, making your view from above utterly magical.

A row of craters formed from the largest eruption in Iceland, resulting in the creation of Lakagigar. This crater has sharp edges that are softened by greenery, making it an extremely attractive site to visit. The dark edges of the crater stand out amongst the greenery and make it look as if someone had cut through them with a knife. You will discover one of the most stunning, natural, and clearest lakes at Langisjor that stretches out as far as the eye can see. Your helicopter guide will escort you to your final destination, which will be the edge of Vatnajokull, to view the gigantic glacier from the vantage point of your helicopter. With its snowy peaks and large surface area, this glacier feeds the majority of the rivers in the country.

When your feet touch the hardened land, the mystical and powerful ancient site of Snaefellsjokull will beckon to you. Set on the edge of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula, you can see Reykjavik on one side and Breidafjordur on the other under the twinkling light of dusk. As you stand atop the icy glacier and feel the powdery snow between your fingers, you can take a deep breath and feel the refreshing air as it fills your lungs and rejuvenates your soul. Once you are settled on the ground, you can sink deep into a natural hot spring and sit back to catch the wonder of the Aurora Borealis.

The awe-inspiring Westfjords are a marvel to see in person with their sweeping cliffs that are reflected in clear, calm waters. Your guide will lead you around the Westfjords, which are known for their sparse regions but utterly gorgeous landscapes. As you move toward Isafjordur, which is the largest town in the Westfjords, you will experience the raw beauty of Iceland where the gurgling streams of water make it seem as if you have stepped into an ethereal world that seamlessly intermixes reality and fantasy. Isafjordur, which is the capital of the region, is surrounded by majestic mountains and is the home to the oldest house in Iceland, which was built in 1734.

As you wind away from Isafjordur, the thunderous power of the Dynjandi waterfall rises in front of you. Dynjandi is a series of waterfalls and the largest in this region. Often times, the waterfall appears like a veil of running water down the cliffs. As you stand at the bottom of the falls, the mists of water will spray your face and transport you to a secret world that only the locals know about. The picturesque beaches of Raudasandur await you as your guide drives you toward their deep and colorful sands. You can stop and have a romantic picnic for two among the multi-colored sands as the water laps against the shore.

The quaint town of Siglufjordur sits on a fjord with imposing mountains that loom in the distance over the cultural hub of Northern Iceland. It houses the award-winning Herring Museum, which is where you can step into the lives of the past in the biggest herring fish capital in the world. The wild waters that surround Iceland are the perfect place to catch a glimpse of the gentle giants of the sea: whales. As the blue skies hover above you and your fingers trail in the vast ocean, your eyes will twinkle with delight every time the spray from a blowhole or the rounded backs of whales appear.

With a belly full of breakfast, your journey will begin today with a stop at the Lofthellir Cave, which is a lava cave that houses the largest natural ice sculptures in the country. During an earthquake, the roof of the lava cave collapsed, revealing the wondrous world of opalescent figures. As your guide helps you to descend into the Earth, the dampness in the cave will welcome you before the bite of chilling air breezes past your cheeks. The inside walls of the caves are a kaleidoscope of red, green, yellow, and blue colors, which creates an opening into the magical world that lies beneath the surface of Iceland.

The magnificent Asbyrgi Canyon, which is famous because Odin’s eight-legged steed Sleipnir had left his horseshoe-shaped imprint as he galloped into the sky, is a legendary place to visit. The sharp edges of the mountains will truly appear as if a horse had stepped there, leaving its imprint as if it galloped into the sky. Next, the contorted shapes and sizes of rocks at Hljodaklettar will provide you and your loved one with a place to explore. The rocks are cool to the touch with indents and divots that also create an echoing sound and vibrations.

The most powerful waterfall in the country is Dettifoss, which is a stunning place to have lunch with your guide. As the rapids rush past you, clouds of mists will rise from the powerful energy to create a spellbinding world. Your guide will finish your journey at Storurd, which is a celestial blue lake that is surrounded by giant boulders and cushioned by bright green meadows. As you sit on the boulders and dip your fingers into the cool lake, you can allow your imagination to wander through the gossamer veil that lies between the fantastical world of Iceland and reality.

Your day will begin in the creative town of Seydisfjordur, which is set between jaw-dropping cliffs. The town inspires artists with its fascinating location while the tiny wooden houses that line up along the main street of Seydisfjordur keep it unique and charming. As your guide leads you toward Hengifoss, which is the third highest waterfall in Iceland, its majesty and beauty will take your breath away. This striking waterfall is remarkable as its background is made up of layers of red clay and black basalt before it is split by a thin stream of water. The clean air will be refreshing to your body, and the location will be the perfect setting for lunch with your guide.

Located on the Bulandsnes peninsula, the coastal village of Djupivogur holds mystery and intrigue for any who pass through it. The grandiose Bulandstindur, which is a pyramid-shaped basalt mountain, looms protectively over the village, where it is known for granting wishes to any passersby in addition to being the energy center of Iceland. The largest island off of the East Coast, Papey, is home to the oldest church in Iceland and a massive colony of puffins. Their bright and colorful beaks are a thrill to spot whenever you come across them.

As you journey through the mile-long tunnel along the Ring Road, it will seem as if you are entering the magical world of Narnia. With sharp cliffs on one side that end in black sand beaches, you will feel as if you just stepped onto a movie set. The starkness of its beauty will leave you stunned and will steal away your heart. The mythical ice caves at Vatnajokull glacier will transport you to a fairy-tale land, leaving you in awe. After the magic has worn off a bit, it will be time to return to your luxurious accommodation for the remainder of your evening.

The natural crown jewel of Iceland lies in the Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon where its dazzling scenery is the backdrop for many films. As you stroll along Diamond Beach, the sunlight may reflect off of the ice at the right moment to make it appear as if you are walking among diamonds, which is an impressive feature of the site. The drive with your guide along the coastline of Iceland displays the country at its best with the rushing ocean on one side and looming mountains on your other. The mountains converge at Svartifoss, which is a graceful waterfall that is surrounded by black basalt columns. From a distance, the waterfall appears like a large black heart, and it is truly the most stunning locale in Iceland for any couple to have lunch.

When you cross toward the Fjadrargljufur canyon with its precipitous cliffs that are covered in dark green moss and a winding river that flows through the middle, you will be in awe at the magnificent sight in front of you. Through the abundant and luscious nature of the canyon, your guide will drive you to the Katla Ice Caves, where you will descend into the Earth to discover this icy phenomenon underground. Set in the Kotlujokull glacier, the Katla Ice Caves are a true wonder of the world because they can be experienced year-round. The icy walls will curve over your heads and take you deeper into the subterranean ice palace with its pebbly walls that give Iceland its name.

After a bountiful breakfast, your guide will escort you to the mystical Seljalandsfoss, which is a mesmerizing waterfall that will make you want to sit and stare at it for the entire day. There is a great secret to the waterfall, which is why you will have the opportunity to walk behind it and feel its power from a unique perspective. A path will lead you around Seljalandsfoss, where you may come across a rainbow before you continue to Gljufrabui, which is another waterfall that is known only to locals. It is quite hidden, so only adventurous souls will be able to locate it without a guide. Luckily, you have a guide, so you do not need to worry about missing this hidden gem. You can stand at the bottom of the waterfall and sense the sheer power as it flows all around you while the refreshing air rejuvenates your body.

Due to its stark beauty and intense weather, Iceland is not always known for its agriculture, but there is a tomato farm that grows organic tomatoes and cucumbers, and your guide can lead you to the farm. From here, you will continue to Thrihnukagigur to discover the dormant volcano from the inside. As you descend into the gigantic magma chamber, the explosion of colors along the walls will envelop you in its enchanting allure. Thrihnukagigur’s most recent eruption was over 4,000 years ago and provided the walls with its kaleidoscopic colors and unique formation.

You can stroll with your partner as you watch the sun set at Grotta near Faxafloi Bay, and if the tide is low, you can walk to the lighthouse for a picturesque way to your day. Upon your return, you can dine on succulent food at the only Michelin-starred restaurant in Iceland before your guide returns you to your luxury accommodation for a good night’s rest.

You will experience true bliss once your guide leads you to the healing waters of the Blue Lagoon. Upon your arrival, you will feel the mists as it rises from the waters. The minerals will seep into your body, leaving you feeling weightless and refreshed while an in-water deep massage from an experienced masseuse will ease all of your tense muscles from the long car rides. The Retreat Lagoon is the perfect place to have a private moment with your loved one, and once you are fully rejuvenated, your guide will escort you to Keflavik Airport for your journey home.
