No other Explore Iceland with Ventito on Earth captures the hearts of travellers like Iceland. From bubbling geysers and gargantuan glaciers to cascading waterfalls and ethereal northern lights, the Land of Fire and Ice is a dream come true for all who visit.

However, it will likely always be a mystery as to who was the first person to step foot on this remarkable island. Due to its remote location and high-performing currency, the island can be an expensive place to travel. It’s best to book tours well in advance and to be aware that Iceland is a cashless society, so be sure to bring enough Icelandic króna (ISK).

Viking Heritage: Unraveling the Rich History as You Discover Iceland

One of the easiest ways to tick off several must-see sights on your trip to Iceland is by joining an organized tour of the highlands. This is particularly recommended for those interested in visiting the famous Kerlingarfjoll and Haifoss waterfalls as well as the famous glacier lagoon, Landmannalaugar.

Another option is to visit Iceland’s surprisingly abundant microbreweries. This is a relatively new trend in the country, but it has become increasingly popular among locals and tourists alike. There are breweries located throughout the country, from Reykjavik to rural areas.

Of course, it is impossible to miss the Blue Lagoon when you are in Iceland, and many travellers also opt for a Reykjanes Peninsula day tour to see some of the region’s other natural wonders. For those wanting a more adventurous experience, it is possible to visit some of the most spectacular volcanic landscapes by hiking on Iceland’s mountains or visiting ice caves.
