An uncrowned “off the beaten path” hike in East Iceland offering five waterfalls, one canyon and so much more…..

A walk to the beautiful Stokksnes beach that resulted in an unexpected hour watching humpback whales!

Tucked away, deep in the heart of a deeply wooded valley on the trail to Skaftafell, Svartifoss is one of Iceland’s most unique and elegant waterfalls and well worth the hike.

Harbour and fishing port, Höfn is a welcoming and flourishing town on the south east coast of Iceland. It is known as the one and only lobster capital of the island and even as a lobster festival every summer. With Vantnajökull on its doorstep and stunning coastal scenery, it’s well worth visiting.

One of the most stunning places we’ve visited, until recently relatively unknown and with few visitors until a certain pop star featured it in one of his videos….

Here for just a short time in the summer and dividing Icelanders’ opinions. The lupins are either loved or hated… here’s why.

A wonderful day spent in the harbour at Reykjavík to celebrate Fishermen’s Day, the annual celebration of the men and women behind Iceland’s main industry. With a real party atmosphere, this was a fantastic family day out.

Perched at the very edge of the Seltjarnarnes Peninsula, this is a favourite walk from downtown Reykjavík for many locals. With fabulous views and abundant birdlife it’s easy to see why.

Viðey Island is just off the shore of Reykjavík, but a world away in feel. On a sunny day it was the perfect place to go exploring - a lovely way to have a gentle hike in the countryside without actually having to leave the capital!

A pre-birthday weekend away to Húsafell, in the west of Iceland. Only an hour and a half or so from Reykjavík but a world away in feel.

Seeing the beautiful Langjökull glacier in a new - and very exciting - way - by snowmobile.

Visiting Sky Lagoon, one of Iceland’s newest geothermal spas and the perfect pampering experience.

After months of waiting, I have finally seen the magic of the aurora borealis in Iceland. A definite tick for the bucket list!!

A spa with a difference. Bathing in warm beer, drinking cold beer…. What’s not to like??!!

Iceland’s Golden Circle tour is one of the most popular trips for tourists. Here’s why….

An amazing adventure crossing Iceland’s biggest glacier - and discovering what it is like inside it!!

A very snowy trip along the south coast towards Iceland’s biggest glacier; three days of snow, ice, sunrises and sunsets - and glorious views at every turn

What it’s like to experience life living in a city - from the point of view of an avowed non-city dweller… Although to be fair, Reykjavík is a pocket-sized, villagey kind of a city!!

Gamla Laugin (The Old Pool) nestled into the lush countryside, offering an experience that is a world away from the modern spa retreat….

A trip to Þingvellir National Park for this year´s annual Trout Walk, otherwise known as the Trout Dance (Urriðadansinn).
