    Eight days of Iceland’s hottest springs and coolest sights, blending Iceland’s most spectacular natural wonders with its finest geothermal bathing experiences.

    Day 1

    Reykjavík → Hella → Húsafell → Reykjavík

    Arrive at Keflavík Airport and meet your private driver for a smooth transfer to Reykjavík. Check in to your hotel, freshen up, then head out to the Blue Lagoon for your first taste of Icelandic geothermal magic — soak in warm, mineral-rich waters surrounded by lava fields, with a silica mask and drink in hand. In the evening, join a guided Reykjavík Food Walk, sampling local favourites like lamb stew, rye bread ice cream, and perhaps even fermented shark.

    Day 2

    Reykjavík → Hella → Húsafell → Reykjavík

    A full-day exploration of the Golden Circle. Start at Þingvellir National Park, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates drift apart, then visit the steaming Geysir geothermal field and thunderous Gullfoss waterfall. Your guide will time each stop to avoid the worst of the crowds and share insights along the way.

    For lunch, you’ll visit the celebrated Friðheimar Tomato Farm, where you’ll dine in a toasty greenhouse surrounded by vines, enjoying a fresh tomato-themed menu.

    End the day with a soak at the Secret Lagoon — Iceland’s oldest natural pool, quietly steaming in the countryside — before being dropped off at your hotel in Hella.

    Day 3

    Reykjavík → Hella → Húsafell → Reykjavík

    After breakfast, set off on a gentle horseback ride through lava fields and open countryside, riding the famously sure-footed Icelandic horses.

    After lunch, transfer out to Hvammsvík Hot Springs, a fjordside sanctuary where eight natural pools blend seamlessly with the wild Atlantic landscape. Soak at sunset for full effect.

    Day 4

    Reykjavík → Hella → Húsafell → Reykjavík

    Collect your rental car and drive to Hrunalaug, a tiny, stone-walled hot spring tucked into a grassy hollow — intimate, undeveloped, and beautifully rustic. Afterwards, stop at Efstidalur, a working farm and café known for homemade ice cream, fresh dairy, and views over the valley.

    Day 5

    Reykjavík → Hella → Húsafell → Reykjavík

    Check out and set off on a self-drive journey through southern Iceland into the highlands of the west. Along the way, stop at Hraunfossar and Barnafoss, where icy water streams out from under lava fields. Continue to the geothermal area of Deildartunguhver and unwind at Krauma Baths, where hot spring and glacial waters are mixed to perfection.

    Arrive in Húsafell, where your stylish lodge offers crisp mountain air, modern comforts, and natural surroundings.

    Day 6

    Reykjavík → Hella → Húsafell → Reykjavík

    This morning, join a small-group tour and explore the blue-hued tunnels carved into Langjökull — Europe’s second-largest glacier. It’s otherworldly, educational, and a highlight.

    Later, enjoy a scenic hike into the highlands to reach the secluded Húsafell Canyon Baths — two rustic stone pools nestled in a ravine, overlooking waterfalls and quiet forest. With limited access per time slot, it’s a peaceful and private experience.

    Day 7

    Reykjavík → Hella → Húsafell → Reykjavík

    At leisure to explore teh wilderness. Stay local in Húsafell and explore lava caves, hike the trails, or enjoy a second visit to Krauma or the Canyon Baths. This is a slower, restorative day perfect for soaking up the wild beauty of Iceland.
    Alternatively, drive north for a full-day self-guided adventure around the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, known as “Iceland in Miniature.” Visit volcanic beaches, fishing villages, and the glacier-capped Snæfellsjökull — said to be a source of spiritual energy. Drive time (Snæfellsnes round trip): ~5–6 hours.

    Day 8

    Reykjavík → Hella → Húsafell → Reykjavík

    Return to Reykjavík at your own pace, stopping for photos or coffee along the way. Once in the capital, check back into your hotel and head to the Sky Lagoon for a final soak. With its oceanside infinity edge and 7-step ritual — cold plunge, sauna, mist room, and more — this is a sublime farewell to Iceland’s geothermal magic.

    Spend your final evening enjoying Reykjavík’s restaurants, galleries, or simply strolling along the harbour.

    This morning, enjoy a relaxed breakfast and a final walk through the city before your private transfer to Keflavík Airport. No rush, no stress — just a smooth and peaceful ending to your Icelandic escape.
