Iceland, A Land For All Seasons

Iceland is beautiful and worth a visit all year round, but if you prefer going during a quieter time then don’t miss the chance to go during shoulder season (May and September) or during Winter.

1. Diamond Beach
   
   If you’re visiting in May or September, you’ll have the unique opportunity to explore the famous Diamond Beach without many tourists. See the massive icebergs floating around in the Jökulsárlón lagoon from the beach, or take a boat tour to see these natural wonders up close! This beautiful nature spot is a 6-hour drive from Reykjavik so we recommend staying for 2-3 days to really enjoy the visit!
   
   
2. Literary Heritage and Museums
   
   Previously designated as UNESCO City of Literature, the city of Reykjavik has created a literary map to show you all the areas you shouldn't miss if you want to learn more about famous poet Tómas Gudmundsson, the 'Neighbourhood of Gods' and the many bookshops and libraries in the city center. To complete your tour, you should pay a visit to the city's best museums like Reykjavik’s Art Museum - the largest one in Iceland - or the Reykjavik City Museum, including 5 exhibitions like the Museum of Photography and The Settlement Exhibition, showcasing the oldest relics of human habitation in the city.

1. Take a road trip around Ring Road
   
   A road trip around the world-famous Ring Road should be at the top of your Iceland bucket list! Known for scenic views, majestic waterfalls and incredible lagoons, the Ring Road is the ideal place to drive around during Iceland’s long summer days. The 24 hours of daylight will give you extra energy and time to discover the island. 
   
   
2.  Famous filming locations
   
   All movie fans should travel at least once to Iceland to see some of the most famous filming locations from series and films like Game of Thrones, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Star Wars and James Bond, to name only a few. Iceland’s scenic outdoors and fantastic nature make it the perfect place for filmmakers and strict safety measures make it an even more attractive destination to shoot new movies and TV series. If you want to learn more about Iceland before your trip, make sure to watch 'The Fire Saga', a Eurovision comedy starring Will Farell and Rachel McAdams.
   
   
3. Reykjavik
   
   Reykjavik’s great outdoors make it the perfect destination for adventurous tourists. Go on a hike on the Hekla volcano, see the geysers, try whale watching just outside the capital or simply take a walk in nature for an unforgettable experience.
