Iceland Roadtrip - Ring Road 🇮🇸

#roadtrip During my summer vacation, I embarked on a Ring Road trip around Iceland, and it was truly an unforgettable adventure. The Ring Road, which circles the entire island, is about 1,332 kilometers long and offers an incredible array of landscapes. There’s no entrance fee for driving the road itself—just the costs for fuel and various attractions along the way. 🚗🌋 From the otherworldly landscapes of Thingvellir National Park to the majestic waterfalls of Gullfoss and Seljalandsfoss, every turn on the Ring Road revealed something spectacular. The black sand beaches of Vik and the stunning Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon were particular highlights, each offering unique and breathtaking scenery. Nearby, the geothermal baths at Myvatn and the charming city of Reykjavik provided relaxing breaks from the road. The journey also took me past numerous hot springs and volcanoes, making the whole trip feel like a tour through a living, breathing natural wonder. If you love nature and adventure, the Ring Road is a must-do experience. #trip #RingRoadIceland #IcelandAdventure #ScenicDrive #NaturalWonders #TravelIceland

Árbær Open Air Museum

I loved walking in this open airport museum in Reykjavik, the fact that all the house are real ones that moved here was astonishing. Loved the actors role playing around and taking you back in time without it being too much. Thankfully we had good weather so we were able to enjoy it with no rush. I definitely wish more countries adapt this concept the way Iceland did. #100waysoftravel #Iceland #Reykjavik

Exploring Reykjavik: The Perlan Museum and Observation Deck

On our 6th day in Iceland, we are about to complete the longest drive of the trip, covering 384 kilometers, almost 5 hours, from Akureyri straight to our hotel in Reykjavik. We decided to skip the attractions in the west of Iceland on the way back - those will have to wait for another visit. On our 7th day in Iceland, our first stop is the Perlan Wonders of Iceland Nature Museum, which requires a ticket for entry. Inside the museum, there are exhibitions like the Northern Lights show, an artificial ice cave, and more... There's also a revolving restaurant, a coffee shop, an ice cream store, and a bar. From the Perlan observation deck, you can enjoy a 360-degree view of the capital, Reykjavik. In the summer in Iceland, we didn't get the chance to visit a real ice cave, but here they have an artificial ice cave exhibition, which offers a taste of what it's like to visit the blue ice caves. Haha 😄 The outdoor observation deck at Perlan offers a panoramic view of the entire city of Reykjavik. The top floor has a semi-circular transparent glass exterior, which actually houses a souvenir shop and a restaurant.

Iceland, the most beautiful sight at the end of the world, a 6-day 5-night travel guide

Iceland, the most beautiful sight at the end of the world, a 6-day 5-night travel guide. Iceland is surprisingly fun💎, majestic, gentle, and clear, it is the place where the scenery I've seen with my own eyes is even more beautiful than the great shots on Instagram. To be honest, the travel guides for Iceland are quite general, you know where to go, but it's not clear what to do after you get there. So I've tried to write my guide as detailed as possible💎, friends who want to go to Iceland remember to keep it, and just follow it to play. - ⭐In Iceland 1. There is no tipping culture in Iceland. Icelandic merchants will clearly mark prices to avoid hidden costs. 2. In case of emergencies, politely ask the staff, Icelandic merchants' restrooms can be used for free. Now, large supermarkets have mother and baby restroom facilities at the entrance, which can be used for free. 3. Iceland is part of the Schengen Area but not the European Union, most tourists traveling to Iceland with a passport can get tax refunds, remember to ask the merchant about tax refunds after purchasing goods - 💓Itinerary 👉Day 1: Arrive in Reykjavik. 👉Day 2: In-depth tour of the Golden Circle (Þingvellir National Park—Geysir—Gullfoss—Kerið volcanic crater—View of Langjökull glacier from a distance) 👉Day 3: South Coast scenery (Europe's northernmost ice cap—black sand beach—Seljalandsfoss—Skógafoss—plane wreckage) 👉Day 4: South Coast scenery (Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon—Diamond Beach—Mystery Blue Ice Cave Crystal Palace & Super Jeep) 👉Day 5: Reykjavik cityscape—Reykjanes Peninsula (Blue Lagoon) 👉Day 6: Reykjavik, Iceland - 🌌Essentials for life -Really bring a thermos! (It's easy to drink cold air outside every day, and it's easy to get a stomachache, you can make a cup of ginger tea to warm your stomach after returning) -Warm packs! (When going out to chase the Northern Lights, you really will shiver from the cold at night, put a few warm packs in your pocket, it really will be much warmer) -Face masks! (Repair masks are really needed, every day the face is dry and red from the wind and rain, and Iceland is also quite dry, you must hydrate in time🥹) - 💠Dressing Guide ⬆️Upper body: Quick-dry underwear (very important, can prevent catching a cold after sweating) + warm layer (fleece, thin down) + softshell jacket (can be worn when the wind is not strong and the weather is clear) / hardshell jacket (must add when there is rain or going to waterfalls) ⬇️Lower body: Warm layer (add when the temperature is low) + softshell pants + hardshell pants (must add when there is rain or going to waterfalls) 👟Shoes: Waterproof hiking shoes 🎩Hat: If it's a wool hat, it's best to have a windproof layer, lining 🧦Socks: Quick-dry socks/wool socks, double-layer socks are recommended - ⚠️The premise of everything is to be warm and waterproof, many waterfall attractions or weather require waterproof clothing, gloves must also be brought, it's very cold for hands; bringing a windproof face mask is really important, if you don't bring it, the wind will really blow into your stomach...

Iceland | A Dream of the North

| A Dream of the North. Returning to Iceland, it was as if the wheel of fate had turned again. This time, the gods of fortune blessed me with a week of sunshine. In this land at the end of the world, the sun is like a lazy god, rising at 10 am and setting at 4 pm. But in the short hours of daylight, the morning and evening light create a beautiful dream. When the first light pierces the clouds, the deep blue sky is torn open, leaving a trace of the aurora. At sunset, the sky is painted pink, as if the goddess of love has spilled her blush, and the long blue and pink hues weave a romantic poem. As the end of the year approaches, the sound of Christmas echoes through the streets of Reykjavik. The colorful houses are like gift boxes, and the lights under the eaves are like fairy dust, creating a warm glow in the cold air. Walking through the streets, every step is like stepping into a dream. The cold wind brushes my cheeks, but it cannot blow away the warmth in my heart. The coldness of the ice and the warmth of the people are intoxicating, and even in the snow, it feels like spring.

Tips to enjoy Videy Island

To get to Videy island you need to go to Videy Ferry Terminal in Reykjavik. Return tickets are 2,300 ISK or you can get it for free if you have a City pass. The ferry goes out every hour and it takes around 15 mins. The island is massive and exploring any side will take a few hours, I'd suggest go early noon to have a lot of time and still go back before the final ferry. Having a picnic or bringing food isn't advised as there are thousands of seagulls and food isn't a good idea. There is one restaurant at the start right after you get out of the ferry, I'd suggest you already eat before you go but the restaurant is a good backup plan if the weather gets bad. #voyagevibes

Blue Lagoon in Iceland is a must go place!! The hot spring is very comfy and the masks are useful! Get the premium pass for the 3 masks (Lava, silica and mineral) My skin got better after the day🤩 Geyser is also fascinating, you can watch it by following the golden circle tour. Aurora🤩 Northern light at night is perfect! Was lucky enough to catch it at the first trial~

Hallgrímskirkja: Iceland's Iconic Church ⛪

Hallgrímskirkja, Iceland's iconic church, stands as a testament to the country's rich cultural heritage and unique architectural marvels. Located in the heart of Reykjavík, this striking Lutheran parish church is one of the city's most recognizable landmarks, drawing visitors from around the world. Designed by the renowned Icelandic architect Guðjón Samúelsson, Hallgrímskirkja's distinctively modernist expressionist style is inspired by the country's natural landscapes, particularly the basalt lava flows and rugged cliffs. Its towering facade, resembling the jagged peaks of Iceland's mountains, rises dramatically into the sky, creating a commanding presence on the city skyline. At the church's entrance, visitors are greeted by a grand bronze door adorned with intricate reliefs depicting scenes from Icelandic folklore and Christian symbolism. Inside, the cavernous nave is bathed in natural light streaming through towering stained glass windows, creating an ethereal atmosphere for worship and contemplation. The highlight of a visit to Hallgrímskirkja is ascending to the top of its tower, where panoramic views of Reykjavík and beyond unfold in all directions. From this vantage point, visitors can marvel at the colorful rooftops of the city, the sparkling waters of Faxa Bay, and the distant mountains looming on the horizon. Hallgrímskirkja stands not only as a place of worship but also as a symbol of Iceland's enduring spirit and cultural identity, inviting visitors to explore its history, architecture, and breathtaking vistas. #tripstars #travel

How to plan a trip to Europe to see the Northern Lights

Step 1: Choose where to go. Where you go should depend on your time and interests - but Iceland is a safe bet. Contrary to its name, the Northern Lights do not get brighter with every degree of latitude. Instead, they appear like donuts at the top of the Earth, known as the auroral oval. This is good news for travelers who don't want to trek all the way to the Arctic. From Bergen, Norway (the rainiest city in Europe) to Salla, Lapland (self-proclaimed coldest town in Finland). Nordic travel destinations (Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland are the easiest places for most travelers to reach. Reykjavik, the northernmost capital, is a major hub for international flights and a great place to explore this phenomenon. It also has the added bonus of being popular for many outdoor adventures, such as hiking, so when you're not chasing the Northern Lights, you'll have plenty of time to kill. But there's no need to limit yourself - the farthest destination of the Arctic has continuous darkness and brief sunlight. At 5pm one afternoon in December last year, I saw the aurora in Tromsø, Norway. Sailing in the sound of Scoresby, Greenland, I saw them as early as the end of August a few years ago. Where you go may also depend on what you want to do on the journey, when you're not trying to chase the lights. Lapland is a popular destination for families during Christmas, where visiting Santa Claus is possible. Going to trendy Sweden means you can enjoy the city break in Stockholm before heading to similar places like Abisko National Park (a 17-hour train ride or faster flight). Even if the lights may be your top priority, planning some other incredible experiences is also a good idea - just in case you don't see the lights, you'll still have a memorable experience. Step 2: Determine the best departure time. The dark night is the path that must be passed to see the light. Aurora hunter - a professional title in the northern highlands - claims that the best time to see the bright northern lights is before and after the solar equinox, when the length of day and night are equal. From a statistical point of view, this statement has some truth - but this correlation is not enough to determine your travel plans. The darkness, no matter how long, is the foundation. The power to create spectacular color stripes is active all year round, but we cannot see them on bright summer nights. Although winter brings cold, it also increases your chances of seeing night lighting. The aurora borealis is caused by solar activity. Charged particles flowing from the sun, known as solar wind, violently collide with the Earth's magnetic field, causing atoms in the upper atmosphere to emit light. Auroras appear quite suddenly, and their intensity varies - but on any given day, scientists predict the strength of auroras based on the solar wind of the past three days. In the Nordic countries, the meteorological agencies of each country conduct a nine-level weather forecast every day. (The scale is not a normal curve: it usually hovers around level 3, and intensities exceeding level 5 are rare solar storms.) Once you have a destination in mind, find the necessary websites to track their aurora activity. For example, the Icelandic Meteorological Office has a daily forecast you can check. Step 3: Find a travel that suits you. You don't have to operate remotely, but you may need to trust professionals. Some tourists emphasize too much on escaping the city lights. Only leaving behind the light pollution in front of them, such as street lamps and houses, can they see the darkness clearly; adventuring 500 miles away from the power grid will not make any difference. This is not to say that it's not worth taking an adventure to a distant and dark valley. First, participate in other activities such as snowmobiling to make it easier to wait outside. Together with the travel agency, we provide a well-structured experience and have the opportunity to try new things such as dog sledding, boating, cruising in a super jeep or snowmobile. The guide will also have resources and experience to help track forecasts and find lights. They usually know the best places to watch the lights, and if the weather doesn't cooperate, there are backup locations. If you want to travel alone, you need to make extensive plans and take safety measures for cold weather - especially if you are not used to it at home. Another form of clever assistance is remote lodges, where specialized caretakers provide wake-up services by waiting for the appearance of light and reminding guests. This means you can choose to sleep instead of patiently waiting in the cold. Step 4: Figure out what equipment you need. Big surprise: You need to keep warm. Get ready, like you're going to the mountaintop, with no trees or buildings to shield you from the cold wind. Searching for the aurora is a waiting game - success can be attributed to an unnecessary extra layer you thought you didn't need. Invest in a thermal base layer to keep warm. If you're going on a trip, ask what items are suitable for the local climate. Many travel companies also offer heavy outer layers that you may not be lying around the house. Discovering the lights will definitely sustain you, but you may also want to capture this amazing sight for future generations. When it comes to capturing the Northern Lights, note that they are shot with shutter speeds of 5 to 20 seconds. A tripod is an absolute must for a strong image; even better, invest in a remote shutter release. The latest smartphones can still capture surprisingly good shots, but it's hard to have enough hope for your work to stand out in the competitive field of auroras. Step 5: Prepare for the worst, hope for the best. Manage your expectations and check the cancellation policy. Managing expectations is part of any Northern Lights trip: you may have traveled a long way, only to have fair clouds open the curtains for a spectacular show. I think going with others can be helpful, sharing setbacks - and ultimately sharing excitement. When booking with a tour operator, please check their cancellation policy. Some day trip companies operate even in cloudy and gloomy weather conditions and do not offer refunds to fellow customers, but often allow people to reschedule their itinerary within a short period of time. Few people have confidence in the Norwegian cruise Hurtigruten, which promises to take passengers to see the Northern Lights; if the promise falls through, a full refund will be given. If I could do it again... Living in Iceland means the Northern Lights are right at my doorstep. Generally, they appear every other clear night from September to April. If you're like me, pointing at the pitch-black sky and shouting "ta-da" from the balcony of a three-story house, trying to leave a lasting impression on foreign friends, finding them still seems to take a lifetime.
