North Iceland: Highlights and hidden gems
This tour covers the key highlights of the north as well as some hidden gems, off the beaten track. The landscapes are diverse: high mountains, valleys and fjords carved out by the ice age glaciers and moonlike volcanic scenery that are out of this world. No tour in Iceland is complete without waterfalls and this one includes one of the most beautiful (Goðafoss) and the most powerful (Dettifoss). By staying in both Akureyri and Myvatn you experience a balanced mix of urban and rural local living
