Day 1 | Arrival in Reykjavik

Welcome to Iceland! Once you arrive in Keflavik International Airport, you will be transferred to your accommodation in the city center. We suggest that you use your free afternoon to explore the city or visit one of the museums of Reykjavik. After you get a first impression of the capital, you will spend the night in your accommodation for the next days, a wheelchair-friendly hotel with a spacious, handicap-accessible room and bathroom with a roll-in shower.

Day 2 | Private Guided Golden Circle Tour

In the morning your private guide picks you up from your hotel and you start your day by driving to Þingvellir National Park. The park is an excellent example of the uniqueness of Icelandic nature, which is why it was included in UNESCO´s World Heritage list in 2004 and has a lot to offer to its visitors. The paths in Þingvellir are very well and most of the places are easily reachable by wheelchair. Your guide will show you the best places and after exploring the treasures of the park, you will head south to see Geysir Spouting Spring. You will have the chance to see Strokkur, one of the most famous geysers of Iceland. It erupts every 4–8 minutes at approximately 15 – 20 m high, sometimes even up to 40 m! The geyser is easily reachable with a wheelchair. The last stop of your Golden Circle tour is Gullfoss (the Golden Waterfall), which is undoubtedly the country’s most famous waterfall. On the way back to Reykjavík you visit Kerið an old volcano crater filled with water.

Tour duration

~ 8 hours

Driving distance

~ 240 km / 150 miles

Day 3 | Free day in Reykjavík

After a day full of images of Icelandic nature, we suggest that you today explore Iceland´s biggest city and the world´s northernmost capital. Reykjavik is an exciting city with a rich cultural life. You should not miss the chance to visit some of the city´s landmarks, museums, and exhibitions. We recommend you a guided tour in Harpa, the modern concert hall that opened in 2010 to learn all about the glass facade designed by Olafur Eliasson, discover the ideas behind the stunning architecture, and explore the building’s various halls. In the afternoon you can join an optional whale watching tour, where you have the chance to see mainly minke whales and dolphins. Checking the weather forecast in advance is always a good idea, to make sure the sea is relatively calm on this day. Ask at the hotel reception to ensure an enjoyable whale watching experience!

Day 4 | Private tour along the South Coast

Today you will be picked up from your hotel for a tour along the magnificent South Coast of Iceland. The impressive Seljalandsfoss waterfall will be your first stop for the day. A wheelchair-friendly path will take you closer to that 60m high waterfall. Close to the waterfall, you will find the Eyjafjallajokull visitor center, a very interesting exhibition about the major eruption in 2010. Remember to collect some volcanic ash at the entrance! Continue to Skógar where you’ll find the picture-perfect Skógafoss waterfall. Skógafoss is one of the country’s biggest waterfalls, with a width of 25 meters and a 60-meter drop. You will then travel towards Vik and on the way, you can view the Reynisdrangar basalt columns that rise from the sea. Vík is the turning point of your tour and you will return to Reykjavik where your driver will drop you off at your accessible accommodation in the city center.

Day 5 | Private Guided Reykjanes tour and the Blue Lagoon

Today a private guided tour to Reykjanes peninsula; an active geothermal area and a diamond in the rough is planned for you. The first stop for the day will be Seltún (Krýsuvík) where boiling mud pools and colorful mountains can be found. Your next stop for today will be the unique Blue Lagoon. That is by far the most relaxing experience of your Icelandic holidays! Being perfectly accessible to everyone, the Blue Lagoon contains special changing rooms, a pool access lift, and special wheelchairs for the lagoon itself. The deepest part of Blue Lagoon is around 1.60m/5.2ft but most parts of the lagoon are far shallower. In the late afternoon, your guide drives you back to the capital where you can enjoy dinner in one of the many restaurants in the center and enjoy your last night in Iceland.
