Map outline: Natural Earth

Days 1–2 · Winter in Reykjavík

Enjoy museums, cafés, and a geothermal pool while settling into the shorter days. A city base offers plenty to enjoy if an evening excursion is postponed.

Days 3–5 · Country skies

Stay in the countryside with several evenings available for guided aurora outings. Plans follow cloud cover, weather, and activity; darkness alone does not guarantee a sighting.

Days 6–7 · The Golden Circle, gently

Explore the Golden Circle in daylight and return to Reykjavík with a buffer before flying. Make the journey rewarding in its own right, regardless of what the sky delivers.
