The Flybus shuttle brings travelers from Keflav?k International Airport to Hotel Cabin in Reykjav?k where you spend one night. We provide you with ideas on how to explore Iceland?s capital on your own.

You will be met at 09:00 am by your tour guide, who shows the group the spirit of Christmas in the capital and the Reykjanes Peninsula with moon-like landscapes, mountains, hot springs, cliffs, fishing villages, and lighthouses. After a long day of travel we end the day by soaking up our journey in the warm blue waters of the famous Blue Lagoon. We stay for two nights in simple cottages in South Iceland.

In the evening we celebrate Christmas the Icelandic way. Before dinner, we join a guided bus tour to view the Christmas lights in the villages of Hvolsv?llur and Hella. The origins of traditional Christmas lights date back to the Middle Ages when people needed to keep their homes lit during the winter solstice. In Iceland, the tradition finds its roots in pagan Old Norse beliefs, when people would keep a fire alive inside the central pit of a Viking longhouse to keep out the darkness of the winter solstice.

Your festive 4-course dinner starts around 19:30 and is served at ?rh?s restaurant located by the river in Hella, a small village in South Iceland. Drink a toast of sparkling wine to enjoy a truly special Christmas celebration. Naturally, once darkness falls, you're out in the garden waiting for the northern lights.

Overnight Location: Aarhus Cottage or Hotel Straka (cozy version), Hella or similar. Breakfast and festive 4-course dinner included (220km / 137mi)

Today we will travel further to the South Coast. In we reach the area below Eyjafjallaj?kull volcano and glacier. We stop at Seljalandsfoss waterfall and visit the Skogar Folk Museum with early modern Icelandic turf houses. At lunch, we head to the Sk?garfoss waterfall.

After lunch we continue our journey into South Iceland where we walk the famous black lava beach at Reynisfjara, inspect the cape of Dirhhole and the Reynisdranger sea cliffs before visiting the charming village of Vik Huh.

If the night is clear, and you're lucky, you might see the northern lights moving across the sky in a wild and reckless dance of dramatic shapes, colors, patterns and sizes. Which will be an incredible experience of your life.
