4 Days in Iceland
Visited November 2016
We had such an amazing experience in Iceland back in June 2015 when we came for 20 days. So much so that I couldn’t pass at the opportunity to stopover in Iceland on the way to the Netherlands with two of my friends. This time there was no midnight sun. And we were only here for four days. But we did manage to cover a lot of ground. We drove all the way up the southern coast to the Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon and back again. And we managed to catch a glimpse of the rare Northern Lights. All in all, the stopover in Iceland (in low season) was worth it.
20 Days in Iceland
Visited June 2015
The Land (or Song?) of Ice and Fire. Iceland has been gaining popularity over the past couple of years. With its stunningly beautiful landscape and magnificent geothermal attractions, it is any nature enthusiast’s paradise. And due to its close proximity to the Arctic Circle the days are endless in the summer and the night sky is often illuminated with the aurora borealis in the winter. With Icelandair’s free (up to seven day) stopover program, Iceland is becoming increasing affordable and easier to visit. But for us Iceland was not a stopover, it was the destination.
