Iceland is called the Land of Ice and Fire because the incredible landscape is dusted with snow and ice during the winter months while active volcanoes heat up certain parts of the country. It is a country shaped by lava and glaciers — hence fire and ice.
See the Icelandic Lava Show at the Katla UNESCO geopark, or bathe in mineral-rich hot springs at the geothermal Blue Lagoon spa. Visit the stunning Gullfoss Falls, or marvel at the incredible rolling landscape of Thingvellir National Park. There is so much to see and do in Iceland, and driving between these activities is definitely worth it as we think Iceland has the most interesting landscape of any country in the world – not that we’re biased or anything… Sample local delicacies, embrace Icelandic culture, and experience the true Iceland with a Cool Travel Iceland Private tour.
We pride ourselves on how much care and attention we put into our custom tour packages. This ensures that our guests get the most unforgettable experience possible, and will never forget their Iceland adventure. As we’ve said before, there is a lot to see and do in Iceland that it’s actually quite hard to decide what you want to do first or to work out the logistics. That’s where Cool Travel Iceland can help.
Any holiday or vacation should be relaxing, and definitely NOT stressful, but it can often feel stressful if you are struggling to find good accommodation, or the best way to travel around the country, or what exactly to visit throughout your trip. Our tours are tailor-made to your specific needs and wants – you tell us what you want to do and we do the heavy lifting in creating the perfect Iceland experience for you. Sit back, relax, and trust your trip is in the best hands.
We have a range of Iceland Tours that can provide you with some inspiration, and anything you see on one of these tours can be included as part of your custom tour. If you’re looking for more specific inspiration, then we suggest checking out our fan favourites: our Iceland Northern Lights Tour or our Iceland Golden Circle Tour.
We help guests squeeze every ounce of enjoyment out of their time in Iceland by meticulously planning their trip — right down to the last detail. Also, because we are the Iceland experts and we are all locals, we have the insider knowledge required to provide you with a truly unforgettable and authentic experience in the Land of Fire and Ice.
With the ongoing pandemic, life has been stressful, to say the least. Whether you’ve been locked down and stuck in your house for months or been out in the world as an essential worker, you will no doubt be itching to get out and travel, or at least to see something other than the local shops and the park at the end of your street. However, it is totally reasonable that you might be worried about your safety and health. Well, Iceland is one of the best places to visit right now.
Iceland only has around 365,000 residents in a country with an area of 103,000km2. That means Iceland has the lowest population density in Europe meaning that there are just 3 people per kilometer. This means that there is quite a lot of open space in Iceland where you can spread your legs and socially distance quite easily.
