Untamed Iceland

2019

A world away yet tantalizingly close, Iceland is a magical island of pure and unspoiled natural beauty. One of

villages, as well as discover the history of this isolated nation preserved in a series of enchanting medieval
tales known as the Sagas. Their customs and traditions are inspired from centuries of folk tales passed down
from generation to generation, and are full of magic, ghosts, elves, and S`WO`QZWV (hidden people). Although
shaped by its past, Iceland continues to push the progressive envelope and continuously ranks at the top
of better life indexes for its strong quality of life. You’ll get further insight into the lives of these resilient
people during A Day in the Life of an Icelandic horse farm where we’ll stay overnight. In the capital city of
Reykjavik, witness the creativity of a city that has harnessed the power of nature to provide sustainable energy
to its inhabitants. Journey near the Arctic Circle at Akureyri, and then explore the Reykjanes Peninsula on an
ATV tour. Icelandic culture and traditions combine for an unforgettable adventure in an unspoiled land.
