BORGARFJÖRÐUR AREA This tour includes a visit to the village of Borgarnes There we visit the Settlement Center but the exhibition there employs sophisticated lighting and multimedia to give an impression of what it was like for the first settlers of Iceland to set out across the wilds of North Atlantic to their new home (5-day tour only).We also observe the beautiful waterfalls Hraunfossar and indulge ourselves in the geothermal baths of Krauma next to Europe’s most powerful hot spring Deildartunguhver.

NORTHERN LIGHTS Husafell where you stay one of the nights is an excellent place to observe the Northern Lights should these appear. The hotel is new and with good facilities; its location far away from all city lights makes it possible to observe this amazing natural phenomenon just outside the hotel door.
