ICELAND TRAVEL INFORMATION
Mappa dell'Islanda
One week journey to Iceland. Instead of renting a car, which is the classical way to explore Iceland, I've found a guesthouse within a walking distance from Reykjavik city airport (this airport is very close to Reykjavik downtown) and I've flown to a different destination every day, going back to Reykjavik in the evening. The day tours from Reykjavik to Akureyri, Isafjordur, Westmann islands, Hornafjordur and Egilstadir are organized by Air Iceland and, once on place, a tourist bus or a super jeep is offered for a guided tour of the place. This solution is convenient for single travelers to Iceland, as there are no car rental and fuel expenses.
