Experience Overview

The otherworldly landscapes of Iceland offer perhaps the closest thing one can have to an out-of-body travel experience. Equal parts rugged and tranquil, the country’s beauty offers the perfect sanctuary from daily distractions back home. Your soothing journey across the country’s southern coast starts with a hike up Öskjuhlíð Hill overlooking the mosaic-like architecture of Reykjavik. Private transportation offers you the luxury of time to see the iconic sights of the Golden Circle and Thingvellir National Park before heading to the stunning black-sand beaches of Reynisfjara for a unique meditation session. And, of course, a visit to Iceland wouldn’t be complete without a stop at the Blue Lagoon, a naturally-heated hotspot for travellers willing to go halfway around the world just to unwind.

Highlights

  • Meditate atop the volcanic slopes of Mt Hengill
  • Learn to cook bread in a geothermal bakery
  • Marvel at the majestic manes of Icelandic horses
  • Hike behind the towering Seljalandsfoss waterfall
  • Practice meditation on Reynisfjara's black-sand beach
  • Suit up with a pickaxe to hike Sólheimajökull glacier

We had a great time, but this travel style likely isn't for everyone. It was perfect in Iceland where lots of driving is required

Iceland did not disappoint. However, the wellness element of the program can be further enhanced. Thus, I'd recommend for someone interested to experience Iceland, but I'm not entirely sure if it?ll meet the expectation of a wellness trip.

I had a wonderful trip. I take into consideration the people first, were they nice/kind, sociable? How was the guide? I loved the group I was with and my guide was hilarious and educational. The food was amazing, the weather was perfect and the sights were fantastic. I know you can't really predict the weather, and people but those are important factors if my trip went well or not.
