A proudly local perspective Welcome to winter in Iceland! Winters in Iceland add an extra layer of magic to your visit, especially when there are northern lights in the sky and brilliant snow covering the ground.

Discover Iceland’s Most Magical Season Want to know a secret? Winter is actually one of the best times to visit Iceland! Your clients will discover the perfect combination of invigorating adventure and peaceful relaxation, all in one trip. They’ll love having outdoor fun in crisp air and admiring serene mystical landscapes straight out of a Nordic fairy tale. Winter is also THE best time to meet locals since it‘s the season of cultural events and festive feasts. And after an amazing winter day, nothing beats relaxing in an outdoor geothermal pool or enjoying tremendous local cuisine. And spotting the northern lights is the icing on the cake (or the vínarbrauð pastry if you want to use Icelandic comparisons)!

We can‘t wait to share some of that winter magic with your clients! And we have the local connections to make that happen! Our knowledge of Iceland’s unique travel conditions means we know how to create unforgettable moments for your clients, while making the planning simple and seamless for you.

This season, we’ve prepared a whole range of options for you to share with your clients, from escorted tours and self-drive holidays to simple short breaks. If you’re looking for something a little more bespoke, we also craft customdesigned itineraries, including privately guided excursions and luxury experiences for both groups and individuals.

So, sit back and read on – winter fun in Iceland awaits!
