Whatever your age, awe-inspiring bucket-list adventures await just a two-hour-flight away, in the striking natural landscape of Iceland. Touching down in Iceland in early January already feels like you’re on another planet. Minus 16°C temperatures, vast, snowy fields, towering mountains, distant steaming geysers and the distinct smell of sulphur in the air from nearby active volcanoes. This is a place where the raw power of nature is inescapable, and breathtakingly beautiful.
After settling into our hotel and checking out some local cuisine – we tried the lamb soup and “fisherman’s favourite”, which was rustic, delicious and, I’m afraid to say, extremely expensive despite being a “budget eats” destination – we set off to the south coast on our first day of exploring.
