Visits

Blue Lagoon, Gullfoss, Jokulsarlon

Highlights

  • On this trip we are travelling in our own private minibus as this allows us to reach some more off the beaten path destinations and gives us flexibility which would not be possible by public transport. And on top of that all our vehicles in Iceland have complimentary Wi-Fi.
  • There's a lot more to Iceland than ice and vikings. Follow the scenic 'Golden Circle', visiting geothermal springs and geysers, the mighty waterfall of Gullfoss and the site of the nation's first parliament at Thingvellir
  • Drive along the island’s spectacular South Shore past the Reynisdrangar Rocks and volcanic black sand beaches
  • Head to Skaftafell National Park and get adventurous with a hike to Vatnajokull, Europe's largest glacier
  • The aurora borealis is the best lightshow on Earth, and this trip is your ticket. Stay up late to see the northern sky dance with green light (subject to weather conditions and activity)

What travelers are saying

"We joined the Intrepid “Real Italy Food Tour” and enjoyed it thoroughly. Our tour guide, Micol, was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of good information. It seems Micol knew many of the staff of the venues we visited, including the pasta making class we attended. Our group of 11 travelers was extremely compatible, which greatly added to the fun and enjoyment."

What travelers are saying

"We spent two wonderful weeks touring several of the best destinations in Portugal & Spain with a group of 16 people. Our guide (Fredy) was from Spain and intimately familiar with the region, including its rich history, attractions, and food/beverages. The tour was well-paced using a combinations of private vehicles (small buses and cabs), trains, and an airplane ride as well as a fair amount of walking to get around these two beautiful countries. We extended our stay in Lisbon to see more attractions and took a side trip to Fatima, Obidos, and Nazare that was also excellent. Would have liked to have a bit more time in a couple of the cities, but we'll just have to plan another trip!"

Western Europe Tour Selection Trips

  • Here are some actionable travel tips to make the most of your Western Europe tour:

    With so many incredible cities and landmarks in Western Europe, prioritize your must-see destinations to ensure you see all the highlights.
  • Western Europe's cobblestone streets and narrow sidewalks can be challenging with heavy luggage, so pack light and opt for versatile clothing suitable for different weather conditions.
  • Take advantage of Europe's efficient public transportation system, including trains and buses, to easily travel between cities and countries.
  • Invest in a portable Wi-Fi device or ensure your phone plan includes international data to stay connected and access maps, translation apps, and travel information on the go.
  • Western Europe is renowned for its culinary delights, so be sure to sample local dishes and delicacies at authentic cafes, restaurants, and markets.
  • While English is widely spoken in Western Europe, learning basic phrases in the local language shows respect and can enhance cultural immersion.
  • Respect local customs and traditions, such as dress codes for religious sites and dining etiquette, to ensure a positive and respectful travel experience.
  • While it's essential to have a rough itinerary, staying flexible allows you to embrace spontaneous adventures and seize unexpected opportunities.
  • Western Europe can be expensive, so set a budget and prioritize your spending on experiences that matter most to you, whether it's museum visits, guided tours, or dining experiences.
  • Be vigilant of your surroundings, especially in crowded tourist areas, and keep your belongings secure to avoid theft or pickpocketing incidents.
