Just got back from Iceland, and I would recommend it to anyone!
I finally saw the long-awaited aurora on this trip to Iceland! 🌌 I remember the tour I took with my family last year, where we didn't see the aurora even once, which was a huge disappointment! 😭 But this time, I made up for that regret and witnessed the beautiful aurora with my own eyes, and it was mesmerizing! 😍
In Iceland, besides chasing the lights, I visited many places. First, I set foot in Iceland's largest hot spring—the Blue Lagoon, and the scenery there was simply breathtaking! 😍 As soon as I posted the photos, my social media was flooded with likes! It was like being in a fairyland, so dreamy that it couldn't be any dreamier! ✨
My itinerary in Iceland was quite packed:
1️⃣ Day one: Golden Circle tour, where I visited Thingvellir National Park, the geysers, and Gullfoss waterfall, each place was stunning!
2️⃣ Day two: Snaefellsnes Peninsula day trip, where I enjoyed the lush mountains, the strange Monster Coast, the unique Insta-famous bridge, and the mysterious Budir Black Church, truly an interesting adventure!
3️⃣ Day three: South Coast full panorama tour, where I experienced the majestic Seljalandsfoss waterfall, the spectacular Skogafoss waterfall, the primitive charm of Eyjafjallajokull volcano, and the unique black sand beach of Vik, each place was thrilling!
4️⃣ Day four: I stepped onto the Vatnajokull glacier, visited the Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon, explored the Diamond Beach, and finally experienced the blue ice cave adventure, which was exciting and unforgettable!
5️⃣ Day five: I relaxed in the Blue Lagoon hot springs and toured the city of Reykjavik, enjoying the comfortable urban scenery.
When traveling in Iceland, there are a few things to note:
1️⃣ Although you can go without cash, be sure to carry a visa or MasterCard chip card for emergencies.
2️⃣ A waterproof jacket, waterproof pants, and hiking shoes are essential, as the weather in Iceland is unpredictable, and it may rain or get windy at any time.
3️⃣ Don't forget to bring a power bank, as you may not be able to borrow one abroad.
Regarding joining a tour group, I suggest that if you don't have much experience with self-driving tours, it's safer to go with a group. 🚌 When choosing a tour, make sure to pick a good one to avoid regrets like I had last year. This time I joined a local Chinese tour group, and the experience was great! I saw all the sights I wanted to see, the tour cost was 10k, the accommodation was a four-star hotel, and the last night was even upgraded to a Marriott hotel, with breakfast included every day. 👍
For those who want to go to Iceland, remember that November to March is the best season to see the aurora, don't miss out! Iceland 🇮🇸, I will come back! Looking forward to revisiting next year! 😎
I have always wanted to see ice in Iceland. In this country, there is a cold air in the name. After I came to Watner Glacier National Park, I really had an experience. The scene in front of me was really shocked. For a country that has not been to the north. For Jiangnan baby, everything in front of him is a bit too dreamy. The glacier of Nuoda is endless. The surface is a bit gray. But in the distance is the blue of the sea and the sky. The first time I felt that the color of ice and snow was a bit good-looking. Since I came here for a thousand miles, the ice experience is indispensable. Less equipment or boarding the ice for a short walk or wearing a cold suit, sitting in a speedboat and strolling around the lake are excellent experiences. There are many choices in the visitor center. Choose one to experience it. It will definitely be a worthwhile trip.
Take a guide car for more than half an hour and walk for more than 40 minutes to reach the ice cave formed this year. Blue Ice Cave is a naturally formed ice cave under the Watana glacier, melting in summer and forming new ice caves in winter, the shape varies every year.
Vatna, in southeastern Iceland, is the largest national park and nature reserve in Iceland. It combines glaciers, volcanoes, canyons, forests and waterfalls with spectacular views.
Really good, great. You must go see it in your lifetime. Like 👍
The scenery is beautiful, I like this place very much, a good choice!
The scenery here is very good, the glacier world, worth a visit
