This morning, breakfast is at the apartments before we head out for our ferry to the Westmann Islands. We’ll ditch the cars and opt for a boat for the journey, today. 

Hopefully, we’ll get to see some puffins while we are out today- this is where they like to roost. 

Once we arrive to the Westmann Islands, we will visit the Lava Museum (which, in our opinion, is as cool as it sounds). Afterwards, we’ll have some pizza for lunch as a group and then you’ll have some time to explore on your own afterwards.

The ferry back will be one last shot to see the stunning views of Iceland from the sea, and upon arrival- we will head back to Vik.

Dinner is on your own this evening. Feel free to use groceries from the store or head into some of the small stop for dinner nearby. 

Today, we will head out for the destination that will take us to the most eastern point in our trip to Iceland- Jokurlsarlon. This is a famous glacial bay that offers stunning views of a glacier, as well as the icebergs that have broken off in the bay surrounding it. 

We’ll get to see the glacial bay up close in amphibian boats, as well as sparkling ice chunks that have drifted towards the coast and now lay littered along Diamond Beach.

Lunch will be together as a group while we are out today, and the later afternoon will be a relaxed time at the apartments for kids to play together and adults to hang out.

Dinner tonight is on your own.

Today We head to Skaftafell in Vatnajökull National Park, where we can do a family-friendly hike to Svartifoss, the black waterfalls. 

The trails are gentle and you’re welcome to rest along the way, if things get a bit rigourous for little legs. There is also a visitor’s centre and cafe where some can wait, if they only want to go halfway. 

Lunch will be at Skaftafell before heading out to see the glacier tongue at Svinafell Glacier, where you can walk along a path that runs alongside the glacier. The views here are unbelievable!

Dinner will be together as a group this evening on our way back towards Vik.

This morning, we’ll head out a bit earlier to get a good jump on the day! Be ready to leave at 9am. 

Today, we’ll hit up the main spot along the famous Golden Circle: Gulfoss, Thingvellir National Park & Geysir. In a few short hours, you’ll see the largest waterfall in Iceland, where the tectonic plates for North America and Europe meet, as well as the original “Geysir” that gave the name to all others in the world. 

Be ready for a lunch along the way at our favourite little greenhouse + horse farm, Friðheimar. It’s not only a great lunch, but a fun way to see in person how an island made out of ice and lava can sustain its population with the clever use of geothermal energy.

In the late afternoon, we’ll arrive to Reykjavik and be dropped off at the hotel. After check-in, you’ll have the rest of the afternoon to explore town together and find dinner while you’re out and about.
