You should travel to Iceland because…

• Iceland is closer than you think.
• Scenic, other-worldly nature.
• Northern Lights
• Culture & History
• The Blue Lagoon

Can I see the Northern lights?

Why is the Blue Lagoon, blue?

The blue colour comes from the silica and the way it reflects sunlight. During summer there can also be a hint of green in the water. This is the result of the algae, which multiplies quickly when exposed to direct sunlight.

Is the “Golden Circle” a must see?

The Golden Circle is Iceland’s most popular sightseeing tour – and for good reason! In one day you‘ll get to see a magnificent waterfall, the world’s oldest parliament and a hot spring area where the famous Geysir resides.

When does the sun go down?

From mid-May to mid-August the sun only sets for only a few hours per day, and it is effectively light for the whole 24-hour period. In contrast, there are around 4-5 hours of effective daylight during mid-winter.
