ITINERARY
Day
1 : Reykjavík
Iceland’s
capital stretches along the edge of a vast bay in the west of the
country. Perlan, the “Pearl of
Reykjavík”, a museum located on
’Oskjuhlið hill, offers a panoramic view of the lush,
green landscapes. A little further, one can easily spot the signpost
showing the way to the evangelical Hallgrímskirkja church,
and to the historical centre where one can stroll along the
Skólavördustígur and the Laugavegur, two
lively streets with charming small shops. For some relaxation just
outside of the city, visitors have the opportunity to visit the
Reykjanes peninsula and its famous thermal lagoons of the Blue Lagoon.
Day
2 : Sailing around Surtsey Island
A
small drop of basalt in the North Atlantic Ocean, Surtsey is a volcanic
island formed by a submarine eruption that lasted from 1963 to 1967,
off the Westman Islands to the south of Iceland. The island is a UNESCO
World Heritage Site. To protect its virgin ecosystem against human
presence, it is forbidden to land there. Only a few scientists have
access to Surtsey to study the plant and animal colonisation of the
island. Mosses, fungi and lichens were followed by vascular plants.
Around 300 invertebrate species and 90 bird species have gradually
colonised it. While sailing around Surtsey, you will enjoy a unique
panorama of this extraordinary island’s contours.
Day
2 : Heimaey, Vestmannaeyjar
This
land seated off the southern coast of Iceland is the largest of the
Vestmann islands, and is the only inhabited island in the archipelago.
The steep Edfell volcanoes and the green prairies of
Herjólfsdalur offer rich contrast of nature. On the
Stórhöfði road, look out over grey sand
beaches and cliffs carved out by the Arctic ocean. From here, you can
also see the bronze landscapes of the mountaintops. You could visit
Eldheimar, an ultra-modern and interactive museum which traces the
volcanic eruption has experienced Heimaey in 1973.
Day
3 : Grundarfjördur
This
secret boreal hideaway is located at the foot of the Kirkjufell, on
Snaefellsnes peninsula. Arriving by boat means you will get a closer
view of the lava-stone rock standing like a sentinel at the entrance to
the bay; Grundarfjörður lies sheltered behind this
cone-shaped rock. A stone’s throw from the jetty, crystal
clear waters, tundra and beaches give onto the cerulean waters of
Breiðafjörður. Scattered with its
emerald-coloured lawns, this town, with its buildings that merge into
the surrounding countryside, will most certainly win your favour.
Day
4 : Grímsey
Grímsey
is the northernmost island of Iceland surging from the Arctic ocean,
with the Arctic circle running through the island. Its contrasted
contours are surprising. From Grímseyjarhreppur, the
island’s only town located on the west coast, then heading
due south, you can take in the beauty of the hillsides, lushly carpeted
with moss and grass. On the rest of the coastline, imposing basalt
cliffs inhabited by sea birds stand proud.
Day
5 : Akureyri
The
elegant city of Akureyri is located very close to the Arctic circle,
tucked away in the Eyjafjörður fjord. It displays a
stunning palette of colours: blue waters in the harbour, bronze
mountain ash on the squares and brightly-coloured houses in the
historical centre. As you walk along the cobbled streets, you will come
across rows of terraces with wooden furniture. A vast stairway cut into
the hillside leads up to the emblematic feature of the town, namely the
Akureyrarkirkja church. The very beautiful botanical garden made
possible by a microclimate offers the opportunity to discover the
Icelandic flora as well as plants from all over the world.
Day
6 : Isafjördur
Your
ship will take you to the heart of the fjords of North-West Iceland, a
wild land of lost valleys and steep cliffs, where man struggles to
survive. In this very isolated region we find the
Isafjörður fjord, undoubtedly one of the most
beautiful in the country, mainly for its relief, forged by many very
ancient basaltic flows. The town of Isafjörður, which
nestles at the back of its fjord, between imposing mountains, is a
delightful little town that lives exclusively from fishing. The capital
of the Western fjords, its old wooden houses bear witness to its past
as a major fishing port.
Day
7-8 : Reykjavík
Iceland’s
capital stretches along the edge of a vast bay in the west of the
country. Perlan, the “Pearl of
Reykjavík”, a museum located on
’Oskjuhlið hill, offers a panoramic view of the lush,
green landscapes. A little further, one can easily spot the signpost
showing the way to the evangelical Hallgrímskirkja church,
and to the historical centre where one can stroll along the
Skólavördustígur and the Laugavegur, two
lively streets with charming small shops. For some relaxation just
outside of the city, visitors have the opportunity to visit the
Reykjanes peninsula and its famous thermal lagoons of the Blue Lagoon.
