Iceland holidays
From Reykjavik city breaks to the Northern Lights and the UNESCO-listed Thingvellir National Park, our Iceland holidays tick off as-you-please getaways, and adventures that come with experiences included.
Blue Lagoon and natural wonders
Iceland majors in natural wonders. From glaciers to geysers and lava fields to hot springs – plus the odd volcano or mountain – there’s plenty to pick from. In geography terms, the island hovers just below the Arctic Circle, and it’s one of the most geologically active places on the planet. The Blue Lagoon carries the biggest reputation – its bluer-than-blue waters make for the perfect holiday snaps. Its water temperature hovers around a toasty 37°C, too, so you won’t feel the Icelandic chill. It’s a similar setup at Hvammsvik Hot Springs, where you have a choice of eight pools right by the Atlantic Ocean.
Reykjavik city breaks
Traditional charm meets cosmopolitan style in the world’s northernmost capital city. Rainbow-coloured corrugated iron houses illuminate the old town, independent restaurants elevate humble Icelandic flavours to gourmet levels, and unexpectedly good nightlife means Reykjavik lives up to its party town reputation. Head to Laugavegur shopping street for a mix of trendy boutiques, design shops and nightlife, or the nearby Harpa Concert Hall if you fancy seeing the Icelandic National Opera in action.
Northern Lights and Golden Circle tours
Our TUI packages are perfect if you’re visiting Iceland for the first time – each holiday includes an exciting hunt for the Northern Lights and a Golden Circle tour. On the latter, you’ll get to visit some of the country’s best-known sights, including Gullfoss’ dual-cascade waterfall, plus thermal geysers like Strokkur, and the Thingvellir National Park. As well as your two included experiences, you’ll have plenty of time to explore the capital, Reykjavik, under your own steam. Just so you know – if you’re due to go in April your Northern Lights tour may be switched to the Midnight Sun experience, where Iceland’s anything-but-dark nights and striking sunsets come to the fore.
Flexible winter itineraries
Our plan-your-own packages are perfect if you’re after flexibility. These winter getaways are available from 1st November to 30th April and come with no included experiences, so you can tailor your own itinerary to suit you. Your hotel, flights and airport transfers are still packaged into one budget-friendly booking, so that’s all sorted. Then you can fill your agenda with whatever you choose. Don’t forget to change up some Icelandic Króna before you go, too.
Midnight Sun and summer escapes
With close-to 24-hour daylight and milder temperatures, Reykjavik summer breaks are the Icelandic holiday that slips under the radar. For starters, they’re the best time for whale watching tours in Faxafloi Bay and visiting Iceland’s south coast black-sand beaches. Our summer packages run from 1st May to 31st October, and they don’t include any experiences, so you can plan your own agenda – we just sort your hotel, flights and transfers into one easy-to-manage bundle.
