Description:

An exhilarating day trip takes you to some of Iceland’s most spectacular spots. Follow the footsteps of James Bond to the magnificent Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon. On the way, pass through charming coastal villages, see breathtaking mountain scenery, and visit imposing waterfalls.

A world of astonishing beauty opens up as you head south from the capital city of Reykjavik: The Atlantic Ocean forcefully crashes on towering cliffs along black-sandy, volcanic beaches; enchanting wooden villages line the coastal route to Skaftafell National Park, home to jaw-dropping mountain scenery and one of the largest glaciers of the world; and magnificent waterfalls, such as Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, display Mother Nature's full force as the water cascades to the depths.

See the highest peak of Iceland, Hvannadalshnúkur, 6,900 feet (2,100 m), before arriving at the majestic Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon. Marvel at the captivating scenery as you board a boat and sail toward the ocean. See giant blocks of ice that have broken off from Europe’s biggest glacier, the Vatnajökull, gliding on mirror-like waters.

Mysteriously calming, this is nature at its best—no wonder movies like “James Bond: Die Another Day” and “Lara Croft: Tomb Raider” were shot here.
