(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Grotta Lighthouse
Standing proudly on the Grótta island in Seltjarnarnes, just a short drive from downtown Reykjavik, the iconic Grótta Lighthouse is a picturesque landmark offering stunning coastal views and a chance to experience the raw beauty of the Icelandic coastline. Accessible by foot during low tide, it's a popular spot for birdwatching, enjoying sunsets, and, if you're lucky, catching a glimpse of the Northern Lights dancing across the sky.
Tucked away within the Elliðaárdalur valley, a serene green oasis in the heart of Reykjavik, Kermóafoss is a hidden gem that offers a peaceful escape from the city bustle. This beautiful multi-tiered waterfall on the Elliðaá river is surrounded by lush flora and is a favorite spot for locals to walk, cycle, and even salmon fish. Its accessible location, just a short drive or bus ride from downtown Reykjavik, makes it a perfect, less-crowded alternative for experiencing Iceland's natural beauty without venturing far.
Kopavogskirkja
Perched atop Borgarholt hill in Kópavogur, just south of Reykjavik, Kópavogskirkja is a striking example of modernist Icelandic architecture. Opened in 1963, its unique design features two wide, intersecting arches that create a prominent cross shape, visible from afar and even featured on the Kópavogur town seal.
