Flying
Remember that annoying volcano that disrupted your trip to Edinburgh in
2010, you know, the one that had you wanting to attack its Death
Star-like inner core out of existence? With Touris, you’ll take flight
over this notorious natural phenomenon, as well as the volcano Hekla,
Þingvellir, Gullfoss waterfall, and the rhyolite peaks of
Landmannalaugar along the way. Included: sightseeing flight and pick up.

Hiking
The ‘Glacier Adventure’ trip shouldn’t be missed, as it’s both fitting
and appropriate to visit glaciers in the supposed land of fire and ice.
Icelandic Mountain Guides takes you on a fast paced trek up
Svínafellsjökull, which part of the great Vatnajökull glacier in
Skaftafell National Park. Surmount these converging sights and justify
your trip to this amazing country with one of Iceland’s most mesmerizing
treasures. Included: guide, glacier gear and safety equipment.

Price: 9.990 ISK.
