About the Journey.

Travel through Iceland’s most breathtaking landscapes: shimmering fjords, ancient glaciers, volcanic plains, black sand beaches, and endless northern skies. Your camper van becomes a home on the move, offering freedom, closeness to nature, and quiet moments of reflection along the way.

Day 01

Reykjavík Beginnings

We touch down in Reykjavík and ease into Icelandic life. We start with stocking up on essentials and settling into our cosy shared apartment in the city center. A soft landing before the adventure begins.

Day 02

Golden Circle & Geothermal Wonders

We collect our campervans and hit the road! Today, we will wander between continents at Thingvellir National Park, feel the earth roar at Strokkur Geyser, and lunch among the vines at a tomato greenhouse. Keep your mobile phones and camera ready!

 

We will end the day beside the mighty Gullfoss, with a fireside BBQ under the stars, before we set up our campervan bedroom for a good night’s sleep. Look up for a chance to catch the Aurora Borealis (northern lights).

Day 03

Waterfalls & Black Sands

Did you know that Iceland has an estimated 10,000 waterfalls, but only about 200 have official names?!

 

Today, we follow the south coast’s dramatic landscapes to discover a few including the thundering Skógafoss, followed by the hidden beauty of Kvernufoss Canyon. We move on to another Instagram-worthy spot - the surreal black sands of Reynisfjara.

 

We will wrap up in the charming coastal village of Vík for the night.

Day 04

Into the Ice

Vatnajökull is the largest glacier in Europe by area, covering about 8% of Iceland. Today’s we’ll set out to explore 0.000000001% of it!

 

Strap on crampons for a beginner-friendly glacier cave adventure at Vatnajökull - a journey inside Iceland’s frozen heart. We’ll head for a warm lunch in Vík before camping nearby under northern skies.

Day 05

Lagoons & Ice Diamonds

Today is a gem, literally!

 

Marvel at Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, where blue icebergs drift toward Diamond Beach, glittering against black sands like gems.

 

After that, we will go for a short 45-min hike to Svartifoss waterfall before completing the day and a peaceful night near Vatnajökull.

Day 06.jpg

Day 06

Canyons & Adventure Rides

We will chase cinematic views at Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon (yes, the one from Justin Bieber’s video) and hop on a thrilling quad bike to the iconic DC plane wreck.

 

After that, we cruise back toward Reykjavík for one last night together on the road.

Day 07.jpg

Day 07

Blue Lagoon Farewell

No Iceland trip is complete with the iconic lagoon dip. Soak away the chill in the milky-blue geothermal waters of the Blue Lagoon.

 

We will enjoy our free time exploring Reykjavík’s cafés and street art before our flight home - hearts full, playlists long, and stories ready to be told, both online and offline.
