Adventures.com offers packages both for independent travelers and for those who prefer organized small-group tours. If you’re having trouble deciding which travel style to choose for your Iceland vacation, consider the following points.
Safety comes first! Weather and driving conditions are special in Iceland. They can easily surprise you if you are not used to the climate. The weather is unpredictable and can change instantly. Snow, fog, rain, strong wind, and storms can - and probably will - occur at any time. Storms can end suddenly, leaving bright sunshine in their wake. The winters are long, dark, and stormy with frequently challenging road conditions.
If you are an inexperienced driver with little confidence, avoid renting a car and self-driving through your Iceland tour. If you have never driven on snowy and icy roads, you simply should not risk it. Our expert driving guides are skilled and specifically trained to drive in difficult Icelandic conditions. We at Adventures.com offer great experiences in all kinds of weather. We know when the forecast is too risky to head out. You can trust our knowledge of the island.
On an organized group tour, we take care of everything. You won’t have to bother with energy-sapping navigating in unfamiliar places and circumstances. You won’t get lost. You don't risk danger if you get distracted by the beautiful landscapes or the Northern Lights, because you are not the driver. Your focus can be on the beauty all around you rather than getting around.
Are you traveling by yourself and interested in meeting like-minded travelers? Then our group tours are just what you need! People on coach tours are more interesting than you might imagine!
You’ll meet other open-minded solo travelers who appreciate the security offered by an organized tour. From retirees with decades of amazing travel experiences to young backpackers who love going on independent holidays, you’ll travel with a diverse and fascinating group of fellow tourists.
You may also meet small groups of friends or couples who want to spend quality time together and are open to making new friendships. Or lively families who want to spend their time with the kids instead of driving all day long. Or maybe even parents enjoying a child-free holiday. Many of our guests have made friends for life traveling with us!
Iceland is an expensive country so the term “low-budget” has a different meaning than in South-East Asia, for instance. The most cost-effective way of traveling in Iceland is by booking everything far in advance and this is much easier to do when arranging tours.
If you have a fixed budget, a pre-booked tour package can help you avoid the nasty surprise of unexpected costs - a possible risk of individual travel. Especially when it comes to fuel, which exceeds $2 a liter in Iceland, and can quickly add to your mounting holiday bill. Booking one of our self-drive packages comes with the advantage of organized accommodations, often with breakfast included - but you will need to factor in the cost of fuel!
When it comes to time, you can save a lot if you leave the organization to someone else. Regardless of whether you choose a group tour or a self-driven tour, our Iceland experts will put together your itinerary.
We consider value and timing. We’ve honed our expertise and skills over years of practical experience and decades of local knowledge. Putting together a similar itinerary yourself can take hours of research. Finding the best car rental companies, hotels, restaurants and places to stay takes time. So, whatever you choose, if you go with Adventures.com tours, you can relax. We will take care of everything.
If you prefer flexibility and spontaneity, our self-driven tours are for you. With your own rental car, you have perfect freedom. You can make extra stops where you wish and spend as much time at locations as you want. If there’s something in your itinerary you are less interested in, you can even skip it entirely. Want to hunt for the Northern Lights or take a stroll in the midnight sun? Do it! Your tour is completely your own.
We will take care of your car rental, the accommodation, directions, and the self-drive tour itinerary - carefully selected by our team of professional travel experts. Book and receive your detailed travel guide, based on our extensive local knowledge. It will lead you to the most beautiful places on the island, and even some lesser-known treasures.
Our multi-day travel packages generally include accommodation that we carefully hand-pick for every tour, comfortable transport, and entrances to specified attractions along the way. Breakfast will usually be included, although you may have to arrange other meals yourself. This gives you the freedom to try local delicacies and charming restaurants you might stumble across along your journey. There may also be optional attractions included that you can pay extra for. Everything is listed on the individual tour pages, so it is best to check them.
What you should bring on a tour depends on where the tour is going. It’s best to check the specific tour page for an exact list (we'll also send a full equipment list after you have booked).
However, warm and waterproof clothing is always essential, as are sturdy hiking shoes and personal items. You can rent some items from us during the booking process. We also recommend that you pack as lightly as possible – if you want to bring extra items, then you can leave them at our offices in Reykjavík for the duration of the tour.
The best time to visit Iceland and enjoy a tour package completely depends on the experience you want to have and the attractions you’d like to visit. Would you like to step out of your comfort zone and go on adventures? Would you like to hike in the wilderness or up a glacier? Are you interested in wildlife, seeing whales, seals, arctic foxes, and puffins? Or are you more eager to see the Northern Lights? Would you go on a snowmobile adventure in wintry landscapes and visit some ice caves? Each season has its own charm, unique pros and cons, and of course, a touch of magic!
Summer (June-August) is the most popular travel season in Iceland. During this season, it is bright all day, and beautiful sunset and sunrise colors paint the skies all night long. Plenty of amazing festivals and outdoor activities await you. This is the best time for road trips, camping, and hiking Iceland’s epic trails. Some of Iceland’s most beautiful areas are only accessible in summer. For example, the roads that lead to the Highlands open in June and are accessible only until September.
Summer is also the season of cuteness and adorable animals: baby horses, sheep, and puffins are everywhere! The chance of seeing a whale on a whale-watching tour is nearly 100 percent in summer, although it is also very high in winter at about 90 percent.
It is important to note that hotels, guided tours, accommodations, and rental cars are often fully booked in summer. The solution to that problem is to book everything far in advance! Secure your reservations right away to make sure you get to do everything your way on your Iceland vacation.
If you are keen to spot the Northern Lights, the dark winter months are most likely to provide the right conditions - of course, you’ll need to have luck on your side too! Winter is also the best time of year to encounter a world of glaciers, snow-capped mountains, majestic ice caves, and frozen waterfalls.
Winter is the low season, and with less competition for cheaper rooms, you’ll have a wider selection of affordable accommodation options.
The low season lasts from early autumn to late spring (September - May). These are the cheapest months to fly, rent a car, and find accommodation in Iceland.
We offer a multitude of different tour packages and you need to make sure that you choose the right one if you're going to make the most out of your time visiting Iceland.
The first question that you should ask yourself is – what time of year would you like to visit? If you visit in winter, you'll encounter a world of glaciers, snow-capped mountains, and frozen waterfalls. Some of the most popular winter activities include – snowmobiling, ice climbing, ice cave tours, and glacier hiking. The winter nights are longer – meaning that you might see the Northern Lights flickering in the heavens.
Iceland’s summers are no less impressive – the mountains transform into emerald pyramids; the seas are frequented by whales and there are a host of exciting outdoor adventures just waiting to be had. Some of the most popular outdoor activities are horse riding, hiking, kayaking and whale watching. The summer days are longer, allowing us to cram even more into our summer vacation adventures.

The Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon, and therefore we can unfortunately never promise that they will be seen on your tour. Their appearance depends upon atmospheric and weather conditions. The best time to see the lights is between September - March when it’s a dark and clear sky. The sky needs to be as dark as possible, so the best places to see them are well away from the city lights.
Most of the hotels on our tours are remotely located and, therefore, ideal for spotting the northern lights. If the forecast is in our favor, then it is very likely that you will be able to see the northern lights. Most of the hotels offer a Northern Lights wake-up call upon request if lights are spotted, so it is more likely that you will see the lights on a multi-day tour!
