A Journey Through Iceland's Beauty with Virikson Holidays
Here is your chance to embark on the most unforgettable journey of your life. Iceland, famous for its stunningly contrasting geographic features, is a perfect spot to visit for those seeking adventure, natural wonders, and serenity in one place. To begin with, the country’s vast black volcanic landscapes with their strange appearance take visitors right into the country’s fiery past. On the other hand, the capital city, Reykjavik is a hub of modern culture and colourful buildings with a backdrop of amazing natural beauty.
Our Iceland holiday packages will take you up close and personal to this remarkable country. As you travel to the south coast, which is the hub of stunning waterfalls, black sand beaches, and towering cliffs, you can witness the mighty Gullfoss waterfall. The seas present plenty of opportunities for whale watching, especially in the waters off the northern and southern coasts. The sight of these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat is an experience that will stay with you forever.
While discussing Iceland holidays, the natural phenomenon of the Northern Lights, also known as the aurora borealis, deserves a special mention. Most of our holiday packages include Northern Lights tours that take you to Thingvellir National Park, where you can easily observe these lights. Once you have had enough of adventure, a visit to one of Iceland’s many hot springs is a must. These geothermal pools provide an excellent way to relax while observing the scenic beauty around you. Out of all the springs in the country, Blue Lagoon is the one you should not miss. Located in a lava field near Reykjavik, it comprises milky blue water that is rich in silica and minerals. From the bustling streets of Reykjavik to the peaceful surroundings of the countryside, Virikson Holidays is right here to fulfil all your Iceland holiday cravings.
Uncover the Secrets of Iceland’s Secluded Shores in Luxury
A trip to Iceland is not complete without visiting the country’s beaches. Its beaches hold the distinction of being the most beautiful and secluded shores in the world. They are a world of mystery and beauty, loaded with rugged coastlines, hidden coves, and dramatic sea cliffs. Our Iceland luxury packages bring you right to the centre stage of all these attractions. Just imagine yourself arriving and sitting at the black sand beaches of Reynisfjara with volcanic rock formations arising from the ocean. These beaches are not like the typical ones in Europe; they are secluded, private, and offer a perfect retreat for those seeking solitude and natural beauty.
You can also book private guided tours that delve deep into the history of Iceland. From tales of Viking explorers to the myths about the Selkies, these remote and untouched shores are perfect for observing the wonders of nature. If that’s not enough, we also offer luxury cruise holidays for a perfect honeymoon trip along the coastline. For the adrenaline seekers, there is kayaking around icebergs in secluded fjords. If luxury and unique experiences are your thing, then you can include a private gourmet dinner overlooking the crashing waves. Regardless of your needs, we can fulfil them with ease with our Iceland luxury holidays.
Extend Your Iceland Holidays with Multi-Centre Deals
If you are a busy bee and can’t find enough time to go on vacation often, we have the perfect solution for you in the form of multi-centre holidays. While Iceland is a dream destination with its amazing landscapes, geothermal wonders, and vibrant culture, you can combine the other top spots in the world and make the most out of your holidays.
The multi-centre deals we offer allow you to cover countries like Canada, Iceland, and the USA in one go. A typical Iceland trip can be paired with Canada luxury holidays for a contrasting experience. After you have explored the Northern Lights and volcanic landscapes, we will take you to Canada, where you can continue your luxurious adventure. The majestic Rocky Mountains, pristine lakes, and cosmopolitan cities like Vancouver and Toronto await you. Whether you want to explore Banff National Park or enjoy an exclusive helicopter tour over Niagara Falls our packages provide you with everything you want.
Tourists seeking a more urban experience can cash in on USA luxury holidays. From the glamour of Los Angeles to the unique charisma of New York, the country is full of amazing experiences. Whether you want to explore the cowboy culture of Texas or soak up some sun at California beaches, these deals offer unparalleled comfort and style.
Or, if you want two drastically different experiences during one trip, you can pair luxury Iceland holidays with Australia holidays. Australia holiday deals offer you a chance to bask in the stunning coastal beauty of the Great Barrier Reef or marvel at the architectural wonders of Sydney. Our luxury holiday packages offer stays in 5-star hotels and resorts with amazing views of the cities.
With our multi-centre deals, you can enjoy a seamless transition from one luxury destination to another, ensuring that your travels are as comfortable and enriching as possible. Whether you want to extend your Icelandic luxury holidays or explore new horizons, our packages provide the perfect way to make the most of your holiday.
Best Time to Visit Iceland
The best time to visit Iceland mainly depends on your preferences and what type of experience you are seeking. If witnessing Northern Lights is on your bucket list, late September to April is the ideal time. If natural beauty is your thing, then summer months, from June to August, are the most popular. The weather is comparatively warmer during these months, and makes it much more convenient to engage in outdoor activities such as hiking, exploring glaciers, and visiting waterfalls. Summer months are also ideal for whale watching. The shoulder months of May and September offer the best of both worlds. There are fewer tourists, somewhat accessible roads, and cheaper accommodation and flights. Our booking specialists are always available to help you plan your luxury Iceland holidays and advise you on the best time to visit the country. Hence, make sure you give us a call before booking your Iceland holiday packages.
