🇮🇸Iceland | It's the cold and romantic at the end of the world❄️ I went to Iceland for a week last Thanksgiving, the temperature was not too cold at 0 degrees, and I saw super beautiful glacial lakes and fantastic aurora! 🚌 Three-day tour experience I don't dare to drive myself in winter, so I followed a three-day tour of a dozen or so people. The experience is good! Day 1️⃣: Southern Tour 💧Seljalandsfoss: A waterfall that you have spent less than 5 years on, very high but not wide. 🌊Skógafoss: The same waterfall as the title tour! ⚫️Black Beach: The dark aesthetic of volcanic rock beach + basalt columns. But the wind is too strong, it may be blown away! Day 2️⃣: Continue south 💠Jökulsárlón: It’s so amazing and fantastic 🫧! The melted water of Vatnajökull Glacier converges into a lake, with thousand-year-old blue ice floating on the lake, a real-life version of Frozen 💎Diamond Beach: Across the glacier lake, the beach is covered with crystal clear ice that really looks like a super-sized diamond in the sun! 🧊Blue Ice Cave: It is said that the newly discovered largest blue ice cave, but a bit disappointed, most places are pitch black... If you want to see the pure blue ice cave, I guess you need to hike the glacier Day3️⃣: Golden Circle 🌊Golden Falls (Gullfoss), feels much more spectacular than those on the first day, and encountered a rainbow🌈 ⛲️ Geyser, geothermal influence erupts every 5 minutes 🌳Thingvellir National Park, spend less than 5 dive sites, not open in winter, has a sense of tranquility covered with ice and snow 🌋 Crater ->🐎 Icelandic characteristic pony (furry and super cute can be touched) 🌠The only drawback with the tour is that the night stay is very bad, but because it is far from the city, two days at night can see the aurora with the naked eye super lucky! ⸻ 📍Reykjavik City Walk A few days later is the city of Thunder, no wonder it is the northernmost capital of the earth, the whole thing is like an ice and snow city in a fairy tale world: 🌈Rainbow Street: Lots of interesting shops, Icelandic lamb, wool rug refrigerator magnet cute and cute. There are also hat shops that spend less money to take pictures ⛪️ Hallgrimskirkja: Normally distributed organ style, it feels very sacred 💧Tonning Lake: Lots of swans ♨️ Blue Lake hit the right 🌋 volcano closed, fortunately booked sky lagoon, unexpectedly very characteristic! An infinity pool design overlooks the North Atlantic while soaking in the hot springs. There is also a unique seven-step therapy to experience the two heavens of cold and warm 🍽️Eat Caruso: Cheese baked lobster! Messinn: Grilled salmon, seafood pasta Svarta Kaffið: Spend less the same bread bowl lamb soup Black Crust Pizzeria: Volcanic black pizza! 🏨Live Iceland Parliament, Hilton's, very new and comfortable! Recommended!

#favouriteitinerary For our Iceland adventure, we rented a campervan with CampEasy, and it was the best decision we made! The price was affordable, the van was in great condition, and it had everything we needed for a smooth and comfortable road trip. Driving through Iceland’s breathtaking landscapes at our own pace made the experience even more unforgettable. The good things is they also provide a free shuttle from or to the airport when u wanna pick up / drop off the campervan. Reminder: Make sure to get full insurance to cover all potential costs. Iceland’s roads can be unpredictable, with gravel paths, strong winds, and ever-changing weather. Having full coverage gives peace of mind, so you can focus on enjoying the adventure without worrying about unexpected expenses. Safe travels! 📍Address: Really close with airport Keflavik #thingstodo #naturalwonders #campervan #visiticeland
