We are going with you to a country whose beauty is breathtaking, a country with the most unpredictable weather, moon landscapes, and unrealistic natural places. Even the most ardent lovers of sun and warmth will fall in love with Iceland. Iceland is the world's largest island of volcanic origin, a country of ice and fire, romance and adventures, and home to Vikings. It's where the Game of Thrones was filmed, and Walter Mitty escaped from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. A great journey and a real diving into Icelandic life await you. We won’t live in tents, but in comfortable cabins where we can relax and recharge after a long day. We will travel exclusively in 4x4 cars, which will take us to the most inaccessible places. It will be a real road trip, where we will discover new locations, get to know ourselves, and catch every moment during hikes. It's a great feeling of road trip feeling to be able to stop wherever you want during your travels. Make cool photoshoots and shoot unreal road movies of your life. This trip - is perfectly planned. But I always leave a spare of freedom, a bit of unpredictability, and adventure. We will visit the best and most top locations, as well as secret ones that few people know about, my personal favorite part of Iceland is the Highlands, where you see true and untouched nature, every 10 minutes of driving as landscapes are changing and you feel like you traveling between planets. Usually, I won't reveal all the places we will see so that you do not have any expectations. So your emotions gonna be more sincere. However, you can be sure that real mind-blowing awaits. I tell you a little bit about our adventure, take a look at the bottom of the page in the "Trip Itinerary" section! Are you ready for an unforgettable adventure? Let me know if you have any questions in the Q&A section! *The itinerary might be changed during the trip, depending on the road conditions, weather conditions, and various circumstances beyond my control that may arise during the trip. Every change to the original plan will be notified in advance and another option/experience will be provided instead.
Hey there! My name is Vasyl, 30 years old and traveling is my passion and I enjoy organizing trips. I love meeting new people and exchanging cultures and languages. But the most important is to make people happy through traveling by creating unforgettable memories. I'll be your driver, hiking partner, motivator, plus hopefully a good friend during and after the trip.
We will be staying in a private comfortable cabin during the trip. It will be a shared accommodation, but there will not be more than 2-3 people in the same room. But do not worry, this is always the best way to get to know other travelers, and who knows, you may even find a new best friend on this journey.
