The Ultimate Iceland Ring Road Tour

See the complete Iceland!

This tour is a repeat of the incredible tour we did in October 2019. We had an extraordinary time with the wondrous autumn colours, some generous sprinkling of snow when we were in northern Iceland - which adds a nice white blanket on the already amazing landscape, and the awe-inspirng Eastern Fjords that took our breath away. To top it all off, we were lucky to catch the Northern Lights on three nights, with one magical night basking in the glow of Mother Nature's light display while soaking in the hotsprings of the Blue Lagoon.


This tour will need a minimum of 12 persons to go ahead.
The maximum number for this tour is 17 pax.


What is the tour about:

1. Tour the whole of Iceland, staying in a different town every night - A Road Trip!
- We will see the complete Iceland by travelling on the Ring Road in a passenger van that can fit the group and our luggage. This will mean driving from one town to the next and staying in a different town every night. Only around Lake Myvatn, in the north, will we stay two nights in one of the towns - because this region in the North is such an incredible place to be in.

2. Sightseeing Tour
- On many parts of our journey along the Ring Road, we will make stops, when it is safe and possible to do so, for the stunning scenery, that is just too amazing to not take pictures of. We also make a few other planned stops to see waterfalls, craters, glaciers, geothermal areas, or hot springs.

3. Mostly short walks and easy hikes
- This is mainly a sightseeing tour. At some of our sightseeing locations, we will need to walk from the car park to the scenic attraction, which can be a waterfall, a geothermal landscape, or a crater. Some walks are just a few minutes, and some are 30 to 45 minutes. The walks are mostly on flat ground, with a few of them on undulating terrain. On about two or three of the walks, when we head from our parked vehicle to see some volcanic craters, we will walk up a steep slope or make a steep climb up to the crater. On other occasions, we may climb stairs to get up to a scenic spot, or walk around a scenic area with some elevation. The hikes will not be strenuous for the average person.

4. Optional Activities are available
- There are some optional tours which you can choose to do. These will be announced to you after you have signed up for the tour.


What's so different about this Ring Road tour and the chance to see the Northern Lights?
This Ultimate Ring Road Tour takes you on a complete circle around the whole of Iceland. You'll see more than those who do a winter tour that only covers the South of Iceland. Most winter tours do not travel the ring road to the North of Iceland, as the roads there are often not accessible in winter, but these tours get the chance to see the Northern Lights, if they are fortunate enough. Travellers in summer get the chance to do the ring road but not the Northern Lights as daylight is almost 24 hours. On our September tour, we could do the ring road because the snow has not arrive yet, and we do not get the long daylight hours like in summer, so we also get the opportunity with dark nights to catch the Northern Lights (if we are fortunate enough).

This tour therefore brings you the best of both worlds. You will travel the ring road to see the complete Iceland - the amazing Northern landscapes, the extraordinary beauty of Lake Myvatn, the other-worldly geothermal regions of the North, the marvellous Eastern Fjords, and also get a shot at capturing the brilliant Northern Lights at nightfall!


Here's what an Autumn tour in Iceland is like:
Autumn is the off season in Iceland so there will be less crowds . It will mean it's easier to have your pictures taken, there'll be easier travel on roads, and on the whole, quieter everywhere. Winter hasn't arrive yet, so it's not too cold, but be prepared for cold winds and rain, and possibly, snow somteimes. However, it has been said that in Iceland, you can expect all four seasons in one day, and it is more so during autumn. But expect to get some warm and bright days during the tour too.

Autumn will be awesome in Iceland when the autumn colours add to the colourful hues that you'll see throughout Iceland, from the mossy greens, the warm reds and browns, and cool greys and greens on rock faces and canyons, turquiose waters, and white glaciers, black sandy beaches, and cool blues in glacier lagoons. Add the occasional snow that may fall on these colours, you'll be in for a visual treat on this tour!

Let's crossed our fingers that we'll catch the Northern Lights too!

Accommodations on our Tour
One of the priority I have when booking accommodations is to have breakfast included. The rationale for that is that being on a road trip, with a large group, it is essential that we have breakfast conveniently available for us at our accommodation, first thing in the morning. It saves time without having to go out of the hotel to look for breakfast, deciding what to eat when you're at the cafe, having to make payment, and then returning on time to the hotel to be ready to set off. With breakfast included in our accommodation, you can have a leisurely breakfast with everything laid out for you to choose and then ready to leave as soon as you finished breakfast.

On this tour, we will be staying in good clean comfortable hotels that varies from modern hotels in Reykjavik, to countryside hotels, and a few decent hotels in small towns. We will also stay in a couple of Guesthouses that have shared bathrooms in two of the locations. Breakfast is included in all these accommodation types.

Rooms are twin or triple-sharing in hotels or guesthouses. However, in two locations, we might have to utilise a quad-sharing room if the room configurations do not fit our group. In one of the hotels, there is a chance the group might have to share a 4-bedroom house that will fit 7-pax with 7 beds, if our numbers and gender configuration do not fit what is available for twin and triple-sharing rooms. This is a countryside hotel that has chalet-like accommodations. The guesthouses that we will stay in at 2 locations, will have shared bathrooms (i.e. your rooms do not have a private bathroom)

*Note: If anyone of you would like room upgrades, please let me know and I will book rooms in other hotels for your convenience and work out the additional cost involved. Please note that room upgrades may not come with breakfast, as the accommodation provider (hotels included) may not have a breakfast included option. It may also mean that you might have to go to a cafe outside the hotel to get breakfast if the hotel does not have an F&B outlet. Feel free to discuss your options with me.

Allocation of Beds and Rooms
In our allocation of beds (twin beds or bunk beds) or rooms (twin, triple, or quad-sharing) according to our needs, it will be on a first-come-first-served and gender configuration basis.


Cost of Tour Package:
12-pax group: SGD 3,289 per pax
13-pax group: SGD 3,159 per pax

*Please note that the above cost has been converted into SGD based on the prevailing Euro-Sing dollar exchange rates.
As our destination suppliers of accommodation, vehicle rentals, gasolene, and all other services are paid in Euros, the cost shown may be adjusted if the Euro-Sing dollar rates rises drastically and it is not feasible to carry on the tour at the rates stated. We will do our utmost best not to have to resort to any changes in the costs, except in a very serious situation. We feel that we have to mention this due to the uncertainty of the Russian-Ukraine war situation that may render drastic changes in exchange rates. So far this has not happened and we hope it stays that way.
