Here is a guide with the top 10 the best tours in Iceland to help you discover beyond Reykjavik and explore the beautiful nature.
What is the best time to come to Iceland? To be honest, every month has it's pros and cons. Road trips are possible in both winter and summer. I always reccomend renting a car to have the freedom of traveling around Iceland.
But Iceland is such a unique country and there are so many once in a life time activities you can do here in Iceland. I want to make sure you have the best possible time in Iceland, and I wouldn't recommend an experience if it wasn't awesome. You won't be able to do them all so pick your favorites, and make sure you don't leave Iceland without going on a glacier or to an ice cave.
