10-NT Iceland & Scoresbysund

The charming small fishing village of Grundarfjörður is located in the middle of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula and thus provides easy access to Stykkishólmur, Snæfellsbær and the Snæfellsnes National Park. Its best-known landmark is undoubtedly the peak of Mt. Kirkjufell. Translated as ‘church mountain,’ Kirkjufell is the most easily recognizable peak, and one of the most photographed mountains in Iceland. During summer months a Viking Village is built in the centre of town where Viking re-enactments occur quite regularly. The surrounding sea is rich with birdlife & marine life throughout the year.

Tucked into the wild and rugged landscapes of Iceland’s Westfjords, the charming village of Patreksfjordur is your doorway to some of the country’s most breathtaking natural wonders. Once a quiet fishing hub, it’s now an emerging gem for curious travelers. Just a short journey from town, you’ll find the magnificent Dynjandi waterfalls, often called the jewel of the Westfjords, cascading like a bridal veil down the mountainside. It’s raw, remote Iceland at its most magical.

Often called the “jewel of the Westfjords,” Dynjandi cascades 100 meters down the mountainside like a bridal veil. A short hike reveals multiple tiers and stunning views, while the surrounding area teems with birdlife. It’s a must-see natural wonder, and an unforgettable adventure.

Set along the Skagafjordur fjord, Saudarkrokur blends stunning northern landscapes with rich Icelandic heritage. Explore Viking history, spot Icelandic horses, or take in views from nearby Drangey Island—this hidden gem offers an authentic taste of Iceland.

The small Greenlandic town of Ittoqqortoormiit sits at the entrance to Scoresby Sund, the longest fjord on Earth. Although founded in 1925, the original colonists to the area were Palaeo-Eskimo peoples 4,000 years ago. Housing 500 people, Ittoqqortoormiit derives its name from Greenlandic meaning ‘Big-House Dwellers’. A walk through town, reveals a vibrant Greenlandic culture. Seal, muskox and even a polar bear skin can be seen drying on racks outside of private homes.

In Scoresbysund everything is bigger. Mountains rise to 2,000 meters in dark basalt that loom over the ice-filled water of the fjord below. Huge icebergs drift with the currents and pile up in crowds choked white, in huge quantities and volume that will take your breath away. If you are lucky a polar bear might appear, like a small speck in this vast, remote, and wild area.

Heimaey Island is the largest in the Westman Islands located 6,5km off the south-west coast of Iceland. One of the most visually impressive islands in Iceland, it is ringed by tall, vertical sea cliffs many hundreds of feet high. Heimaey is also the home to over eight million Atlantic puffins, more nesting puffins than anywhere else on earth. A local story tells that puffin chicks, taking their first flights at night, often become stranded in the village streets, where the local children rescue them and set them free the next day. In 1973 the island received the nickname, ‘Pompeii of the North’ when a volcanic eruption and lava flow destroyed half the town. This caused a crisis when the town’s only harbour was nearly blocked by advancing lava. Nowadays it is a lively place with a vibrant culture and over four thousand residents.

Reykjavík, Iceland’s vibrant capital and northernmost port city, is a gateway to stunning natural wonders and rich Nordic culture. Just minutes from the harbour, visitors can explore colourful streets, geothermal spas like the Blue Lagoon, and dramatic landscapes of volcanoes, waterfalls, and glaciers. A perfect blend of modern charm and wild beauty, Reykjavík offers unforgettable adventures right from the dock. Join in a national pastime - shopping!
