Highlights
Circle Iceland in a Small Group, linking glaciers, geothermal bathing and working farms with fishing towns and small harbors. Step onto the Langjökull ice cap in specially modified glacier vehicles and walk inside man-made ice tunnels. Bathe in GeoSea’s seawater pools above Skjálfandi Bay, visit Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon and follow the south coast past black sand and well-known waterfalls. Along the way, call at an Icelandic wool factory, a dairy and equine farm, tomato greenhouses and a farm baking rye bread in hot springs, combining recognized natural landmarks with everyday places where people work with ice, heat and the North Atlantic.
- Fridheimar: Visit a tomato farm where geothermal heat and greenhouse cultivation allow year-round growing. You’ll learn how artificial lighting compensates for limited winter daylight and see how controlled conditions support steady production before tasting the tomatoes on site. Your visit directly supports United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 12: Responsible Consumption and Production.
