Winter vacation in Iceland 
For many years Iceland has been a typical summer destination. Look at travel magazines, photo books and journals – Iceland is usually presented in its beautiful summer dress. Hiking, horseback riding, travelling through the highland – all are great and classic activities apparently destined for summer-only holidays. Yet for the last few years we have seen an increase in winter or „off season“ travel interest in Iceland. Some of it is most likely attributed to the wish to see the beautiful northern lights but at the same time travellers are pleasantly discovering that „off season“ Iceland has surprisingly much to offer – besides the Aurora Borealis dancing across the arctic sky! 

Introducing the perfect place for Northern Lights Hunts in Iceland!
If discovering Iceland individually is on your bucket list and you plan to travel around Iceland by car you need to book your accommodation early! A wide range of accommodation is available starting with hostels, guesthouses and farm hotels to the more pricey and upmarket luxury hotels. But if you are looking for something different than the typical self drive car & hotel  arrangement you might want to have a look at our quirky self drive tour! Imagine staying at a Viking hotel, a fisherman´s hut, a wilderness museum or even at the Klettar Tower with perfect views to Mt. Hekla, the glaciers Eyjafjallajökull, Langjökull and Tindfjallajökull. 

​When you run a small farm going on long holidays isn´t always an easy option since you always need to ask somebody to take care of the livestock. So we usually just take a weekend off to discover and explore new areas in Iceland, check out new accommodation and activities. Although it may only be 3 or 4 days it is just a great way to get out of the farm wellies, see something new, spoil yourself a bit or as they say in German: Have a „Tapetenwechsel“ which translates roughly into „chance of scenery“. 

Think of Iceland, what does it cunjour up? For many it was the 2010 eruption of Eyjafjallajökull which brought misery to many air travellers far and wide when it erupted with huge clouds of ash, but few of those people realised the impact it had on Iceland esp those who lived close to it. ​The eruption did cause devastation to the landscape and surrounding farms but as they recovered the news of the eruption really did put Iceland back on the map, and for something other than the financial crash of 2008. Iceland, the land of ice and fire is a country of sheer beauty and awe.
