Circumnavigating Iceland – The Land of Elves, Sagas and Volcanoes of Iceland: 2019 by Hurtigruten
Iceland is a European country and yet so far from its neighbours. Reykjavík, capital of the country, and its surroundings are home to over 2/3 of the population. Different tales have been written over there about elves, gigantic trolls, water monsters, ghosts and others. Surely, we can all understand the reason why when you see the majestic waterfalls, picturesque landscapes, dramatic volcanoes (for some still active) and geysers rising from the ground. All this untouched wilderness and rarity of its fauna participate in nurturing ideas of a magical and unreal environment.

Stykkishólmu is the next town on your trip. Most of the people living there make their living from fishing and tourism. You can explore the diversity of the region - stunning landscapes and remarkable wildlife surrounding the area. There are optional excursions that will take you to the Snæfellsnes Penninsula where you can see the Lóndrangar basalt cliffs or the black sandy beaches of Djúpalónssandur.
