Chase the Eclipse in the Land of Fire and Ice
Every few centuries, the stars align—and Iceland finds itself beneath the path of a total solar eclipse. In 2026, you’ll have the rare chance to witness this celestial event surrounded by one of the world’s most awe-inspiring landscapes.
Our journey begins in Reykjavik, where urban creativity meets Nordic charm, before we head into the wild southwest. Over eight days, we’ll explore Iceland’s greatest hits: glaciers, geysers, black sand beaches, and steaming lava fields. We’ll ride Icelandic horses, walk on ice, sail through iceberg-dotted lagoons, and soak in geothermal springs—all while keeping your eyes on the skies.
The main event? A front-row seat to the total eclipse, set against a backdrop of volcanic peaks and endless sky. It’s a moment most will never experience—and one you’ll never forget. Between adventures, we’ll unwind in comfortable, stylish accommodations, enjoy fresh Nordic cuisine, and take time to reflect on Iceland’s raw beauty and powerful natural forces. Join us for a once-in-a-lifetime journey where epic landscapes meet celestial wonder.
