Iceland travel tip… Iceland is far from a budget destination, and prices vary depending on the time of year you visit, with the peak summer months tending to be much more expensive than the quieter winter months. . A mid-range hotel room will generally be in the region of $80 – $150 a night, and this will often include breakfast. . Car hire costs will vary depending on the type of vehicle you hire. Expect to pay $50 – $150 a day, and don’t forget to factor in the cost of the various insurance options. Gas is quite expensive. . Food is a real budget-killer in Iceland. Even burgers from gas stations will be in the range of $10 – $15, whilst a sit-down meal at a restaurant will have prices in the range of $30 – $50 for a main course. . The good news is that many of the attractions themselves, and particularly the natural attractions like waterfalls and national parks, are free to visit. .

Iceland travel tip… Iceland is a country where the weather can change very quickly, whatever time of year you visit. Layers are going to be the answer, we’d suggest thermal base layers, then warm mid-layers like fleeces, followed by waterproof and windproof outer layers. You’re also going to want good hiking boots or shoes, gloves and a hat. If you’re visiting any of the thermal springs, save money by bringing your own towel, and of course don’t forget your swimwear, and maybe a waterproof case for your phone so you can get the perfect selfie! . ✅ For more important planning tips or any questions about Iceland, please 📧 my team at hello@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com or myself at hong.diaz@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com . ✅ Would you like to know who we are and how we work?

Iceland travel tip...Safety is always top priority when traveling to unknown destinations. Iceland is one of the safest countries in the world to travel in, with extremely low crime rates and good medical care. The main dangers that travelers will face will usually be related to the quickly changing weather and natural hazards like slippery rocks or steep cliffs. Car accidents are also something to be aware of, especially in the winter months when driving conditions can be hazardous. Be sure to have a good travel insurance policy - we can help with that! . ✅ For more important planning tips or any questions about Iceland, please 📧 my team at hello@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com or myself at hong.diaz@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com . ✅ Would you like to know who we are and how we work?

Yes, you can find KFC and even Taco Bell in Reykjavik, but forget about picking up a Big Mac or some Chicken McNuggets — you won't find them here! . ✅ For more important planning tips or any questions about Iceland, please 📧 my team at hello@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com or myself at hong.diaz@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com . ✅ Would you like to know who we are and how we work?

While very close to Danish and Norwegian, the Icelandic language remains totally unique. Words with far too many consonants abound, and syllables seem to just blur together. Unlike other languages that have changed drastically over the centuries, Icelandic remains very close to its original roots. A Bible from the early 1500s (the first one printed in Icelandic, which can be found in a folk museum in Skógar) can still easily be read by Icelanders today. . ✅ For more important planning tips or any questions about Iceland, please 📧 my team at hello@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com or myself at hong.diaz@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com . ✅ Would you like to know who we are and how we work?

Heading off to Iceland? Here’s a travel tip for you… The local currency is the Icelandic Kroner, or ISK. There are ATM’s around the country from where you can withdraw cash, just be aware that they will all charge you a fee for doing so. Most places accept international credit cards, however, it is always worth having cash on you just in case cards are not accepted. . ✅ For more important planning tips or any questions about Iceland, please 📧 my team at hello@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com or myself at hong.diaz@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com . ✅ Would you like to know who we are and how we work?

Heading off to Iceland? Here’s a travel tip for you...tipping is generally not expected in Iceland for service. At many restaurants, a tip is already included, so do check your bill before you add a tip.If a tip is not included, it’s not common to leave a tip, although it is not rude to leave a tip if you wish, around ten percent would be a reasonable amount to tip in Iceland. Alternatively, many people choose to round up the bill to the nearest 1,000, which is also very acceptable. . ✅ For more important planning tips or any questions about Iceland, please 📧 my team at hello@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com or myself at hong.diaz@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com . ✅ Would you like to know who we are and how we work?

Tips for horse lovers visiting Iceland… The multi-day tours require good riding skills and knowledge of horses, whilst the day tours departing from the riding centers are suitable for first timers and other beginners. Enjoy the nature of Iceland in the company of these wonderful animals. It really is a unique and exciting way to explore a new country. . ✅ For more important planning tips or any questions about Iceland, please 📧 my team at hello@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com or myself at hong.diaz@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com . ✅ Would you like to know who we are and how we work?

Water, in one form or another, covers a staggering 2,750 km² of Iceland's landmass. While glaciers and ice expanses blanket more than a tenth of the entire island, there are over 10,000 waterfalls found in the country, including Europe’s most powerful cascade, Dettifoss. And on all sides, Iceland is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, where storms and winds cluster and build, battering this lonely island with sheets of rain, sleet, and snow. #buildyobucketlist . ✅ For more important planning tips or any questions about Iceland, please 📧 my team at hello@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com or myself at hong.diaz@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com . ✅ Would you like to know who we are and how we work?

Iceland's geothermal activity means that there are tons of natural hot pools all over the country. Some are marketed as tourist destinations (like the Mývatn Nature Baths or the Secret Lagoon in Fludir), while others are truly natural and usually just stumbled upon or found by people in-the-know. There's also the famous Blue Lagoon, of course, but this one isn't actually a natural hot spring! It's a man-made spa and hot pool fed by runoff from a nearby geothermal plant and worth the visit. #buildyobucketlist . . ✅ For more important planning tips or any questions about Iceland, please 📧 my team at hello@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com or myself at hong.diaz@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com . ✅ Would you like to know who we are and how we work?

Iceland was formed by some pretty harsh phenomena: volcanoes and glaciers. Much of the country was carved out by slow-moving glaciers, chewing up the land and gouging deep valleys into it. But, contrary to popular belief, trees DO grow in Iceland. However, when the Vikings arrived, they forested the crap out of it, cutting down almost all the native trees in the country. Today, reforestation is being attempted, but you'll still definitely notice the lack of forests when you visit. #buildyobucketlist . ✅ For more important planning tips or any questions about Iceland, please 📧 my team at hello@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com or myself at hong.diaz@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com . ✅ Would you like to know who we are and how we work?

Crazy as it may seem, the majority of Icelanders (more than 50% is estimated) believe in the existence of fantastical beings such as elves and trolls. There are many amusing stories and legends about the Huldufólk, or “hidden people,” and Icelanders go so far as to suspend construction projects if it's believed that the plans may interfere with or endanger current elf habitats. Large fallen rocks in fields or out at sea are said to be frozen trolls, and one guide told me that the smell present in Iceland isn't from sulfur at all – it's the smell of the trolls' dirty bathwater! #buildyobucketlist . ✅ For more important planning tips or any questions about Iceland, please 📧 my team at hello@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com or myself at hong.diaz@bucketlisttravelbeyondlimits.com . ✅ Would you like to know who we are and how we work?

Because it's located on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, Iceland is an incredibly active country geologically. There are more than 125 volcanic mountains in the country, a handful of which are still very active, and another handful that could easily awaken and become active as the country changes and grows. Iceland experiences a volcanic eruption roughly once every 4 years, though the past few years have seen one eruption or more each year. Because of this constant activity, a good portion of Iceland is covered in lava fields. . #buildyobucketlist . .
