Day 1

Dip into Iceland’s natural wonders

Morning: Swim in the Blue Lagoon

Spend the morning pampering yourself at Mother Nature’s very own spa. Iceland’s famous Blue Lagoon is a unique spot where you can bathe in seawater heated by the earth’s core. On its 2000 metre journey to the surface, the water’s enriched by anti-aging algae, pure minerals and silica – known for its skin-loving properties. After a dip in the steamy waters, why not indulge in a treatment at the Blue Lagoon’s spa? You’ll find geothermal massages and silica mud masks are on the menu.

Lunch: Rome meets Reykjavik

With your skin well-nourished, it’s time for a spot of lunch. Based in Reykjavik’s historic centre, La Primavera restaurant fuses Northern Italian cuisine with local Icelandic produce. You could try spaghetti served with fresh mussels from Iceland’s second largest island, Hrisey. Or how about lamb fillet with Icelandic schnapps sauce to stave off those winter chills?

Afternoon: Be dazzled by the Golden Circle

Leave Reykjavik by limousine and head for a tour of the legendary Golden Circle. Covering 300km, you’ll stop off at three of Iceland’s most famous attractions: the spectacular geysers, beautiful Gullfoss waterfall and almost-mythical Thingvellir National Park, home to the world’s oldest parliament established in 930AD. To give your afternoon the full winter wonderland feel, you could even do part of the tour on a snowmobile.
