Iceland Vacation Packages
When a Viking named Flóki Vilgerðarson climbed a hilltop to get a better view of the territory, he saw a fjord filled with icebergs. Hence, this little island off the coast of Norway and the United Kingdom came to be known as Iceland. A country filled with daunting volcanoes, black soils, and unparalleled natural beauty that cannot be found anywhere, Iceland is one of the must-visit places that every traveler should visit once in their lifetime. Flamingo Travels, one of the best Indian tour operators in the USA recommends a visit to this iconic country for a repose from your daily life.
Although some might call Iceland a remote country with difficulties in getting likable food, there are several Iceland vacation packages with Indian food that can set you up for the entirety of your tour so that you can take in the mesmerizing views without worrying about what’s for dinner. Made up your mind? Let’s talk about when you should visit this iconic country.
Best Time To Visit Iceland from the USA
Being a year-round destination, Iceland is most famous for two things: the northern lights and its summer activities. Although there isn’t much of a summer in Iceland, several activities like Whale Watching and dipping in the geothermal spa (called Blue Lagoon) are an ideal plan for your summer itinerary. With that being said, if you want to visit this iconic country during the summer months, Iceland shines its most in the months of June and August.
On the other hand, if you wish to see the northern lights of Reykjavík, we recommend you visit this iconic country between September and March. The northern lights are at their best during these months and these auroras over a snow-clad hill are some of the most memorable moments that get etched into your core memories for a lifetime.
Best Places to visit during your Iceland trip
From the hundreds of options that Iceland offers, it is indeed tough to select the best places that you should visit during your Iceland trip. Although there are other choices and places depending on your preference, here are the must-see places if you find yourself with a backpack on an Iceland tour (with Indian food, of course).
- Blue Lagoon - Situated in Keflavik, the Blue Lagoon is a geothermal spa that is said to have healing properties. The relaxing spa session is one of the most breathtaking sights as you are surrounded by the chilly winds of Iceland and snow-clad mountains all around.
- Skógafoss Waterfalls - Located on the Skóga River, this iconic waterfall has been a part of several iconic TV shows like Game of Thrones and Vikings.
- Skaftafell National park - Being a part of the Vatnajökull National Park, the Skaftafell National Park is home to several iconic waterfalls and glaciers that defy beauty.
- Thingvellir National Park - Thingvellir (written as Þingvellir) is another national park that held the annual parliament meeting of the residents of Iceland. Being a site of historical, cultural, and geographical significance, Thingvellir National Park is one of the most famous tourist places in Iceland.
- Saga Museum - Located in Reykjavík, the Saga Museum is an art-to-life imitation of the entire history of Iceland and the Sagas of how people came to live here. The Saga Museum is a dream come true for every history buff visiting Iceland.
