ICELAND

The following are the heritage sites, grouped into recommended gateway cities. This may help in planning on the logistics (travel and accommodation) of your journey.


REYKJAVIK (KEF/RKV)

Perched on the edge of the Atlantic, Reykjavík is a vibrant, colorful metropolis that balances rugged Nordic nature with a sophisticated urban pulse. Its skyline is dominated by the expressionist Hallgrímskirkja church, inspired by the island’s basalt lava flows. Visitors can explore the glass-faceted Harpa Concert Hall at the harbor or soak in the geothermal warmth of the nearby Blue Lagoon. From the bustling shops of Laugavegur to the world-class National Museum, the city serves as a creative hub and the ultimate gateway to the dramatic waterfalls, geysers, and volcanic landscapes of the Golden Circle.
