Introduction

Iceland is defined by its rugged natural beauty, a landscape filled with volcanoes, geysers, glaciers and hot springs. Reykjavik serves as a gateway of this land of adventure and culture and is the ideal base from which to explore the land of fire and ice. Embark on an exciting adventure of glacial hikes, whale-watching, snowmobiling and relaxing in a geothermal lagoon.

Trip Overview

Depart between April and September.

Fly from Dublin to Reykjavik Keflavik International Airport.

You will be privately transferred to your boutique hotel in Reykjavik for five nights.

On route, you will stop off at The Blue Lagoon, a geothermal spa located in a lava field. Hot water from beneath the earth forms the lagoon, creating a mineral-rich health spa and enriching the water with mineral salts, silica and algae. Soak in the thermal waters and enjoy the surrounding beauty of Iceland.

Allow us to organise an unforgettable whale watching cruise from Reykjavik.

Look out for the incredible orca as well as minke, fin and humpback whales. You will also have the chance to spot white-beaked dolphins and harbour porpoises.

We will arrange your exhilarating tour of the Golden Circle by super Jeep.

You’ll visit Thingvellier and the geothermal Laugarvatn lake, before arriving at the Great Geysir. You will have ample photo opportunities as the Strokker hot spring spouts boiling water 30 metres up into the sky. Then, take a short drive to Gullfoss waterfall where the Hvítá river cascades dramatically down Gullfoss.

Great Geysir, Thingvellier National Park

Travel up the mountains towards Europe’s second largest glacier, Langjökull.

Allow us to pre-book a snowmobile adventure for you, the perfect ending to your tour of the Golden Circle. Whizz across the glacial slopes passing by dramatic rock cliffs and lava fields. You might even spot a unique ice cave, a natural phenomenon that forms during the winter season.

We can arrange a private tour of the unique lava tunnel of Raufarhólshellir.

This is the fourth largest lava tunnel in Iceland. Walk the paths of lava that once flowed through the tunnels centuries ago.

Experience the beauty of the south coast with a scenic super Jeep private tour.

Your scenic drive will take you through the unique Icelandic landscape. Stop at breathtaking locations including Skogafass waterfall, Solheimjokull glacier and the black beach of Reynisfjara.

For an incredible ending to your Iceland adventure, let us organise a guided hike on Sólheimajökull glacier.

Due to climate change, Sólheimajökull is rapidly shrinking, with the fear that in decades it may no longer be with us. Your experienced glacier guide will lead you through the frozen landscape of glacial ice, with picture-perfect views of deep crevasses, water cauldrons and maybe even an ice cave.

You will be privately transferred to Reykjavik Keflavik International Airport.

Arrive in Dublin.

Fiona & Ava – Athens, 2022

Dara at OROKO booked the most fantastic trip for my daughter and I to Athens. It was our first time in Greece. Between Acropolis, museum, and gallery visits, to quiet times at a beachside boutique hotel, it was the most perfect Easter break for us both. Thanks OROKO.
