Why Iceland & Iceland Travel ?Iceland is much closer than you think and we re pretty sure totally different to what you ever imagined. This hidden gem in the North Atlantic is where you will find scenery of epic proportions. Here the might and majesty of Mother Nature’s handiwork is nothing less than spectacu-lar. If you yearn for solitude, then here is the chance to lose yourself and unwind. Nowhere else in Europe can you experience the soothing peacefulness as that found in the vast Icelandic wilderness. Meet the friendly unassuming folk who call this island home and explore a rich cultural heritage going back to those intrepid Vikings who first sailed westward across the Atlantic. Iceland today is a modern vibrant society offering a wide range of accommodation and an excellent selection of restaurants renowned for their imaginative cuisine and fresh local ingredients.

Practical Information

Season and Climate:

The Icelandic climate is warmer than the name suggests, thanks to the Gulf Stream. Summers in Iceland are rather cool, while the winters are rela-tively warm. The average monthly summer temperature ranges from 10 to 13 °C. During the summer the climate is mild but unstable with possible rain and frequent weather changes. The daily temperature can fluctuate from a minimum 5 °C at night to a maximum of 25 °C during the day.

Business hours

Banks are open from 09:15 to 16:00. As general rule offices are open from 09:00 to 17:00, in some cases during the summer these hours are from 08:00 to 16:00. Shops are open from 09:00 to 18:00 on weekdays. Kringlan and Smáralind shopping malls as well as souvenir and some bookshops in the city centre are open on weekends.

Credit cards

They are accepted by most shops, restaurants and organisations and are widely used. The major credit cards in Iceland are Visa and Eurocard, al-though other cards are accepted as well in some places.

Tax free shopping/tax refund

A refund of the local Value Added Tax is available to visitors to Iceland. The refund will result in a reduction of up to 15% of the retail price, provided departure from Iceland is within 30 days after the purchase is made. The purchased amount must be no less than ISK 6.000,- (VAT included) per sales receipt, and all goods (except woolen) must be packed in sealed bags or containers.

Insurance and health care

Please note that individual travel insurance is not included in the tour prices. It is therefore important that clients arrange for their own travel insur-ance before visiting Iceland. Medical assistance and health care are, however, readily available in Iceland.

Activities - Hot Springs

Blue Lagoon

The Blue Lagoon was formed in 1976 during operation at the nearby geothermal power plant. In the years that followed, people began to bathe in the unique water and apply the silica mud to their skin. Those with psoriasis noticed an incredible improvement in their condition. Over the years, Blue Lagoon has been innovative in harnessing this gift of nature to develop different spa services and products. Today, Blue Lagoon is recognized as one of the wonders of the world.

When: Throughout the yearWhere: Reykjanes (20 min from Keflavík Airport – 40 min from Reykjavik City)Max cap: 700 pax

Secret Lagoon

The Secret Lagoon natural hot springs are located in a small village called Fludir, on the Golden Circle route. It’s rustic and natural to keep an authentic and unique atmosphere for guests. The pool’s natural surroundings and the steam rising into the air gives a magical feel-ing. The warm water stays at 38-40 Celsius all year. A small “Geysir” erupts every 5 minutes, showing off for the guests relaxing in the hot spring. During winter, the northern lights are often seen dancing about the lagoon. What better way to view the spectacular light show than relaxing in the pool’s warm water?

When: Throughout the yearWhere: Flúðir (98 km east of Reykjavik)Max cap: 200 pax

Fontana

Laugarvatn Fontana is a place where you come to relax and experience authentic Icelandic nature while relaxing in the warm geothermal pools and natural steam rooms. The baths vary in depth, size and temperature and the steam rooms that have been built over natural hot springs that have been used in this purpose since 1929. Fontana is located by a beautiful lake Laugarvatn and you can enjoy the spectacular views from the sauna or the pools.

When: Throughout the yearWhere: Laugarvatn (70 km east of Reykjavik)Max cap: 100 pax

Myvatn Nature Baths

Myvatn Naturebaths offers something for everyone. Despite its northerly location, the re-gion enjoys a temperate climate, and the long summer days when darkness never comes can be surprisingly warm. As summer merges into autumn, the landscape becomes a panoramic patchwork dotted with shades of gold and brown, while winter brings its own tapestry of snow, sparkling frosts, and frequent opportunities to enjoy the unforgettable splendour of the Northern Lights.

When: Throughout the yearWhere: Myvatn (100 km from Akureyri – North of Iceland)Max cap: 200 pax

Super Jeeps

Super Jeeps are heavily modified 4wd jeeps that take from 4 – 10 pax per vehicle. The tires are huge, 38-46 inches in diameter, giving the Super Jeep very high clearance fromthe ground and enables them to cross glacier rivers, drive on the glaciers. The way these specially equipped jeeps are used in Iceland is unique in the world.

When: Throughout the year Where: Various locations Max cap: 500 pax

Glacier Walk & Ice Climbing

This trip takes place at the frozen glacial tongue that is Solheimajokull Glacier. It is an oth-erworldly scene, rugged, raw and ever changing hub of ancient frozen water. Walk on the glacier and observe the spectacular surroundings. Then we find an ice wall on the glacier and try our hand at ice climbing.

Ammassalik

Ammassalik is the largest town in East Greenland with about 1,400 residents. It lies just south of the Arctic Circle and boasts long hours of daylight in the summer and the splendor of the northern lights in the winter.Ammassalik is only a 10-minute helicopter ride from Kulusuk, but this short flight is one of the most scenic expeditions imaginable as you cross the ice-filled sea separating these two mountainous islands.The town is beautifully situated in a protective fjord with high mountains on all sides. It is split in two by a river, which flows through the valley of flowers behind the town. This valley has a unique Arctic flora and is an ideal place for walks of all lengths

Hotel Angmagssalik is fully modernised, yet retains its friendly, informal style. The hotel has 40 rooms and a small conference and meeting center.

Ilulissat

Ilulissat is beautifully situated at the mouth of the 40-kilometre ice fjord filled with enor-mous icebergs produced by the most productive glacier in the northern hemisphere, the glacier Sermeq Kujalleq. It’sone of few glaciers within the Greenland ice cap which reaches the sea. Ilulissat is located on the west coast of Greenland, 250 km north of the Arctic Circle. 4,000 people live in Ilulissat and not less than 6,000 sled dogs. This is an eloquent statement of the importance of the dogsled as a means of transport, even in a large modern town. Regular boat trips are scheduled in the fjord, where you will sail between floating icebergs of all dimensions. Hiking trips and helicopter tours are also available. You can therefore easily admire huge icebergs up close that come loose from the glacier and crash into the sea

Hotel Arctic has 87 rooms and a new conference centre, can provide top-class rooms, decor, climate and AV-facilities for 120 participants. The heart of the conference centre is the assembly room, the Greenland Room, which can also be converted into a theatre or concert hall. In addition to the Greenland Room with its group rooms and meeting rooms, we also have a smaller assembly room with a number of meeting rooms.
