Iceland encapsulates opposites better than any other country. It’s earned its nickname “land of fire and ice.” With beaches filled with glaciers located near active volcanos, Iceland truly is a wonder.

Reykjavik, the northernmost capital city in the world, is the perfect home base to explore the country. The Golden Circle showcases some of the best things in Iceland – Þingvellir National Park, Geysir geothermal area, and Gullfoss waterfall. You’ll even find the “World’s Best Hot Dog” in the heart of the city (for an affordable price!)

If you have more time to spend in the country, drive along the Ring Road. It encircles the entire country and has fantastic places to visit!
