Natural Wonders of Iceland & the Scottish Isles

Breathe in the fresh air of Iceland as you tour the scenic bay of Reykjavik, uncover volcanoes on the way to Vik and explore the geothermal hubbub of Lake Mývatn—near Akureyri. From the thunder of the two-tiered Gullfoss Waterfall and the geothermal floating pools of Egilsstaðir to the black lava fields of Búðir and the sea cliffs of Arnastapi, experience every imaginable landscape on this one week guided tour. Take an Insight Choice in Reykjavik between either a visit to the Perlan Museum with the Wonders of Iceland's one-of-a-kind exhibition to experience Iceland’s natural beauty or experience the magic of Iceland on an exhilarating flight-ride at FlyOver to see incredible scenery from sweeping glaciers to stunning fjords. In Hellisheidi, visit Iceland’s flagship geothermal heat and power station, and learn how this scientific wonder helped the country generate 70% of its power from renewable energy sources.

Iceland has a voice all its own. It shouts in glaciers and geysers, groans in lava fields and fjords and sings in the deep baritone of grinding geological stresses and the ringing soprano of hissing steam vents. On an Iceland cruise, you’ll chase waterfalls, bathe in hot springs and walk through towns that have probably seen their share of viking longboats. In other words, when Iceland calls, you’ll want to answer.
