Iceland

The land of fire and ice

Known for its waterfalls, glaciers, thermal attractions, and distinct landscapes Iceland is a nature lovers dream. With volcanoes on one end of the island and glaciers on the other Iceland is a land of contrast. It is also known for its climate and famous long summer days with almost 24 hours of sunshine and its winter days with only a few hours of light. Iceland is a place of great natural wonder and will leave you utterly amazed that so many different landscapes and climates exist in harmony on such a small island
