Itinerary
Dates: November 9th - 15th
JFK is where our journey begins! Meet your fellow travelers the evening before as we get ready for an unforgettable adventure. We’ll be flying together via Icelandair, landing the next morning just in time to start exploring.
Arrive at the airport early so we can kick things off with some fun Ice Breakers (because what better way to "break the ice" before heading to Iceland? lols). It’s the perfect chance to connect with the group before takeoff!
DAY ONE - Ready for Takeoff!
We land in Iceland early and head straight to the iconic Blue Lagoon—the perfect way to unwind after your journey.
Surrounded by moss-covered lava fields, this volcanic oasis offers healing waters and stunning scenery. Enjoy a few hours soaking in the mineral-rich waters, indulging in a silica mud mask, and sipping a drink. Between dips, we’ll have a gourmet welcome lunch at the Lava Restaurant, where great food meets breathtaking views.
Afterward, we’ll grab our luggage, Check into the Hotel, and you’ll have the evening free to explore Reykjavík at your own pace!
DAY TWO - Touchdown and Unwind
Put on your comfy shoes and bring your appetite—we’re heading into town for a Food Tour that Marcel and I still dream about! You’ll sample Icelandic classics like cheeses, lamb, homemade ice cream, and the famous hot dogs, all while learning fun facts and folklore about the country.
Once the tour wraps up, take the afternoon to recharge, because tonight we’re heading out to chase the Northern Lights. These dancing skies are rare and unpredictable, but when they do appear, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime sight you’ll never forget.
DAY THREE - A taste of Iceland
Day four is all yours—a perfect opportunity to recharge and Wander the streets of Reykjavík at your own pace. The city is full of charm, with plenty to explore, from cozy cafes and local shops to cultural landmarks.
One of our favorite things to do when we travel is visit churches, and Reykjavík has one of the most stunning: 📍Hallgrímskirkja. This iconic church is a must-see, and for a small fee, you can take the elevator to the top for breathtaking panoramic views of the city. It’s the perfect spot to soak in Reykjavík’s beauty from above!
DAY FOUR - Explore and Recharge
Today, we’re up early to embark on an Unforgettable Adventure, exploring Iceland’s iconic waterfalls and landmarks. You’ll be immersed in the raw, untouched beauty that makes this land so extraordinary.
As we take in these breathtaking sites, you’ll also gain a deeper appreciation for the profound connection Icelanders have with their land.
Prepare for the majesty of Iceland—it might just bring tears to your eyes. It did for me 🥹
DAY FIVE - Field Trip
Start the day your way—perhaps by visiting one of Reykjavík’s iconic bakeries. Be sure to try something rhubarb-flavored—it’s a must! #TrustMe
In the afternoon, we’ll relax at the Sky Lagoon, our favorite natural spa. Set along Iceland’s stunning coastline, this serene retreat features the rejuvenating 7-step ritual, including warm geothermal waters, a cold plunge, and a sauna with ocean views.
PS - the Aperol Spritz here is just top tier >>>
DAY SIX - Sky Lagoon
It’s our final day in Iceland—time to revisit your favorite spots, explore a few new ones, and stock up on goodies to bring home… like Icelandic chocolate—it’s absolutely incredible and the perfect souvenir. I think about the salted caramel chocolate at least twice a week!
For our last evening, join us for a Farewell Dinner at one of our favorite establishments. We’ll toast to an incredible trip, relive our favorite moments, and savor one last meal together in this unforgettable country.
DAY SEVEN - One Last Day
It's not goodbye, it's see you soon! As you head home and sort through all your incredible photos, cherish the unforgettable memories we made together. When you share them with friends and family, don’t forget to tag us with #TravelwithCastles!
