Iceland With Kids: Blue Lagoon vs Snæfellsnes Tour

When we first started planning Iceland with four kids, I pictured us hopping from waterfall to waterfall, maybe squeezing in a lagoon, and calling it good. What actually happened was that age limits, tour rules, and our kids’ energy levels funneled us into some very specific choices, especially around the famous Blue Lagoon and a lesser-known tour out to the Snæfellsnes Peninsula.

We’re a family of six who usually road-trip everything, but in Iceland we ended up booking most of our days as organized tours out of Reykjavík, and that changed how each experience felt. In this post, I’m walking through what the Blue Lagoon was really like with kids, what surprised us about the Golden Circle, how Iceland tour age limits shaped our choices, and why one small-group Snæfellsnes tour quietly ruined every other day of the trip, in the best way.

Planning Iceland With Four Kids: Age Limits and Family Tour Choices

Planning Iceland with four kids meant age limits basically dictated our entire itinerary. Every tour we booked had to allow kids as young as six, because that was our bottom line: if our six-year-old couldn’t do it, we weren’t doing it as a family of six.

Once we actually started looking at tours, we realized how many activities either had higher age minimums or required a one-to-one adult situation. Some of the more “adventurous” things sounded great until we read the fine print that each child had to be paired one-on-one with an adult. With two adults and four kids, that math just doesn’t work. It ruled out a bunch of stuff right away.

Snowmobiling was the big one we really wanted to do and then had to cross off. You had to be 14, our oldest is almost 12, and there are only two of us and four of them. Even if they’d let younger kids ride along, the combination of the age limit and the adult-to-child requirement just made it a no.

The lagoons were another place where age limits steered the decision. In Facebook groups and from people we met, we kept hearing that some travelers prefer Sky Lagoon over Blue Lagoon, and that Sky Lagoon felt more adult-focused. But when I checked the details, Sky Lagoon had a higher minimum age. Might have been 14 again or 12, I’m not sure, but we couldn’t take the kids there. And we weren’t going to leave the kids at the Airbnb just to do an adults-only lagoon on a family trip.

So that’s really how we ended up funneled toward Blue Lagoon instead of Sky Lagoon or something else when we weighed Iceland tour age limits and family-friendly policies. Blue Lagoon accepts younger kids, it fit that “kids as young as six years old” requirement, and it didn’t force us into any weird one-adult-per-child situation. Same thing with the other tours we booked, like our Snæfellsnes Peninsula tour with kids: if it didn’t clearly allow six-year-olds, or if it had those strict pair-up rules, it was off the list.

On the money side of planning, we were also juggling dollars, euros, and Icelandic króna, and tools like Wise International Bank made it way less painful to move money around without getting hammered on fees.

Starting With the Golden Circle + Blue Lagoon Combo Tour

We kicked off our Iceland week with a full 12-hour day tour: Golden Circle plus Blue Lagoon. That shaped how we felt about the Blue Lagoon from the start. This wasn’t a quick dip on the way to the airport; it was our very first full day in Iceland, wrapped into a long Golden Circle and Blue Lagoon tour with the kids, essentially a full-day Golden Circle and Blue Lagoon tour combo.

Two days earlier, we’d already done what ended up being our favorite tour of the entire trip. We didn’t know at the time that it was going to be the best thing we did in Iceland, but starting with that meant the Golden Circle + Blue Lagoon combo had a really high bar to clear. So when we talk about “is Blue Lagoon worth it with kids” or whether this combo is the one to pick for your first day, that context matters: we’d already been blown away by something else.

Driving the Golden Circle, the first thing that hits you is the black lava rock, long roads through lava fields, big stretches of that classic volcanic look. The kids loved it. It felt wild and different and very “Iceland.” For Mike, it landed differently. He was like, “That’s kind of like driving 40 minutes from my house in Hawaii.” The Golden Circle lava fields looked very similar to parts of the Big Island to him, so visually it didn’t blow him away the way it did for the rest of us. Both Iceland and Hawaii have had towns wiped out by lava, so we weren’t minimizing that at all, just explaining why the visuals didn’t hit us the same way.

On the Blue Lagoon side, we’d also been hearing about recent volcanic activity and how it was affecting people’s trips. While we were planning, we kept seeing that some people’s Blue Lagoon trips had been cancelled because lava came over the road or erupted nearby. That’s part of why the “Iceland volcano Blue Lagoon closures” question is very real now, access can just shut down if lava crosses the road. So when we talk about a Blue Lagoon day tour length being a full 12 hours tied to the Golden Circle, it’s worth knowing the whole thing is a bit at the mercy of what the volcano is doing and those occasional Iceland volcano Blue Lagoon closures.

For the kids, though, this combo tour still checked a lot of “Iceland family tours” boxes: easy transport, no driving for us, and a big, dramatic geothermal day out of the gate. If you’re thinking about Iceland Golden Circle with kids or wondering about age limits and whether the Blue Lagoon is worth it with kids, this kind of long, structured tour can be a straightforward way to do it, just know that for someone who’s grown up around active volcano areas, like on the Big Island, the Golden Circle lava fields and even the whole drive out there might feel more familiar than mind-blowing.

Was the Blue Lagoon Worth It With Kids?

If you’re wondering, “Is the Blue Lagoon worth it with kids?” our honest answer is: it depends who you ask in our family and how you book it.

For me and the kids, it was an easy yes. I told Mike afterward, “Me and the kids loved it. We were in awe driving there… I thought it was amazing.” The drive in, the color of the water, the whole setup, the kids were just wide-eyed, and I was there with them. From the second we pulled up, it felt special to us, and they were all in.

Mike was more middle-of-the-road about it. His take was, “I thought the Blue Lagoon still was pretty cool… but the geothermal stuff didn’t blow me away.” A lot of that is just his Hawaii background, he’s used to geothermal pools and lava fields, so the whole “geothermal” aspect didn’t hit him the same way. For him, it was good, but not life-changing.

Timing was the other big factor. We didn’t book the Blue Lagoon on its own; it was bundled into a day tour. That meant we “didn’t have that much time… an hour and 40 minutes, two hours max” actually at the lagoon. For what we had access to with the basic package, we honestly didn’t personally need more than those 2 hours. We had enough time to get changed, get in, explore the lagoon, do the masks, and let the kids enjoy it without feeling rushed in the water itself.

Where I do feel differently, looking back, is how we booked it. Later, I read about the 8-step spa package and I remember saying, “I was kind of jealous about it and I kind of wish I did it separately. Probably would have done it by yourself.” That’s where I think I left something on the table. As a family, with the basic package and about 1 hour 40 minutes to 2 hours max, it worked and the kids had a great time. But for me, if I were to do it again, I’d probably book the Blue Lagoon separately, do that higher-end spa experience, and make it more of a solo thing.

So our Blue Lagoon family review in a sentence: the kids and I were in awe and loved it, Mike thought it was pretty cool but not mind-blowing, and the way we bundled it into a tour shaped that experience just as much as the lagoon itself, especially on a long Iceland Golden Circle with kids day.

Inside the Blue Lagoon: Basic Package, Masks, and Free Slushies

We went with the basic package because we had four kids. What did they need? Towels, one mask, and access to the lagoon were plenty for us. There was a premium package where you got a couple extra masks and a robe and stuff, but once you select you have kids, you lose the premium experience… same thing happened with the lava show. On our same tour, there were adults walking around in robes, so clearly there are different options if you’re booking without kids, but those higher-tier packages just never showed up for us once we added children.

The actual flow once you get there is pretty straightforward. They separate boys and girls. You go into your locker room, you shower, put your bathing suit on, and then you make your way into the lagoon. With four kids, that meant splitting up and doing the locker room shuffle, but the process itself is: locker, shower, swimsuit, then out into the water.

Once you’re in the lagoon, there’s this face mask station that feels almost like a water bar. You got to choose between I think three different masks. Our basic package included one mask each, so we just kept it simple and got the most basic mask, the white one. That’s what was included for us at the Blue Lagoon basic vs premium level: one mask and towels, versus the premium adding robes and extra masks.

We also got free drinks. The kids got free drinks. The kids loved the slushies… the slushies actually aren’t half bad. For them, that was a big highlight, especially because we don’t get many slushies in Spain. So while the adults on our tour were wandering around in their robes with their likely higher-tier packages, our kids were perfectly happy in the basic package world: white face masks on, sugary slushies in hand, and no one missing the extras they technically weren’t allowed to book anyway.

The Blue Lagoon 8-Step Spa Package We Missed (and Regret)

Here’s the thing I wish we’d known about before we went: the higher-end spa experience that sits above the regular premium level.

I found it after our trip and immediately went, “There was this kind of like 8-step spa… not premium, like above premium.” From what we could piece together, this is a separate Blue Lagoon 8-step spa / Blue Lagoon retreat package type of thing, not the standard entry. Instead of just going into the shared lagoon like we did, you have your own separate little baby lagoon, almost like a hot tub, in your own room. You have your towels, everything, and you get a water massage… you’re just floating on the water and there’s someone massaging you.

Compared to our basic package, where we were in the shared lagoon and got one mask, this higher-end Blue Lagoon premium experience looked very different. “They also got like four masks compared to one like we got.” So it’s private room vs shared lagoon, water massage vs no water massage, and four masks vs one. If you’re already thinking about things like Blue Lagoon hair damage with kids, or juggling Iceland family tours age limits, this is one of those situations where booking directly and planning an adults-only window would probably make it a lot easier to choose this kind of experience.

The annoying part is that when we went back to find the exact Blue Lagoon 8-step spa details, we couldn’t. I tried for like 30 minutes and couldn’t, because I wanted to give you the exact details, but it’ll be on Facebook groups. So if you’re planning your own trip, especially if you’re pairing it with something like a Snæfellsnes Peninsula tour with kids and then carving out a separate adults-only spa time, I’d search the Iceland travel Facebook groups for “Blue Lagoon 8-step package,” “Blue Lagoon retreat package,” or “Blue Lagoon water massage” to get the most current info and booking links.

Blue Lagoon Hair Damage: What Really Happened to Our Family’s Hair

People always ask us, “Okay, but what did the Blue Lagoon actually do to your hair?” The short answer: it depends a lot on your hair type, how long it is, and whether you dunk your whole head or not.

In our family, we’ve got a mix of hair types. I have dyed blonde hair that’s already very dry and brittle. Two or three of our kids have blonde hair, and the others (including Mike) have brown or dirty blonde hair. So we kind of got to see the full range of Blue Lagoon hair outcomes in one visit.

Before we even walked out to the lagoon, we followed the advice we were given in the showers. “What we were told was actually to soak our hair with conditioner… from the conditioner there that you get for free, we just poured it all over our head.” We didn’t rinse it out. We just let it sit. “We did dunk in… it probably sat for like 10 minutes before we actually dunked in, me and the two boys.”

Mike and the two boys fully dunked their heads in the lagoon water. Their hair did feel different at first. Mike described it as clunky. “We had zero problems. It was clunky for like a day and then it was done.” For them, it took about 1 day and 2 washes to feel normal again, one wash after and then one that night or the next day. After that, their hair was back to normal pretty quickly.

The girls were a different story. Their hair is longer, and a couple of them are blonde, and they did dunk their hair. “The girls… it felt very gritty and almost like it felt like clay. So I had to wash their hair multiple times. It took what, three days?” When we really thought about it, the timeline was: “The girls probably took three days… at least 48 hours and it was at least four washes, maybe five.” So same water, same lagoon, but their longer hair held onto that gritty, clay-like feeling a lot more.

I did not dunk my hair at all. “My hair is already dry in general… there was no way I was chancing getting my hair wet because I feel like it would just break off.” I kept it up the whole time and avoided getting it in the water, and that worked for me. I didn’t have any extra damage afterward because I never let it touch the lagoon water.

We didn’t use any special shampoos or treatments when we got back, just our regular shampoo and conditioner. There are protein-type shampoos that can help if your hair really freaks out, but we managed without them. For us, basic conditioner and patience were enough. It just took longer for the girls: 3 days and at least 4–5 washes versus the boys and Mike being fine after about 1 day and 2 washes.

So if you’ve got very dry or color-treated hair, especially if it’s long and blonde, I’d treat it more like I did: load up on that free conditioner, keep it up, and don’t dunk. If your hair is shorter and not super fragile, the conditioner trick plus a couple of good washes after seems to be enough to get it back to normal.

What Not to Pack for the Blue Lagoon With Kids

Packing for the Blue Lagoon with kids is one of those things that’s very easy to overdo. Ask me how I know.

You do not need to bring towels. They have towels there. I wish someone had just said that to me really clearly before we went, because we massively overpacked for the Blue Lagoon with kids and it was totally unnecessary.

When I was planning, I kept thinking, “We’re going to a geothermal spa with kids, we need to be prepared.” So I stuffed our suitcase with towels, because in my head that felt like the responsible parent thing to do. Then we got there and realized every person gets a towel included. We never even touched the ones we brought. They just sat in the locker the whole time, taking up space in my brain and in our bag.

Same thing with footwear. You don’t need to bring slippers, because we brought that… it took up so much space in our luggage. I was picturing everyone needing their own pair, walking around the spa, all that. But they provide them. We ended up hauling multiple pairs from home for no reason. When you’re traveling carry-on only with kids, that kind of bulk really matters, and we wasted it on stuff that was already included.

Then there was the toiletries situation. They also have shampoo and conditioner inside the locker rooms. We brought all of that. Full bottles, kid-safe options, the whole thing. And again, it just sat there. The showers are stocked, so unless you’re super particular about a specific product, you’re covered. I kept looking at our bag later thinking, “Why did we do this to ourselves?”

By the time we added up the towels, the slippers, and all the shampoo and conditioner, it costed almost a whole carry-on worth of crap to be honest. That’s the part that really stung, because when you’re trying to keep everything to carry-ons for a family, every inch counts. Using what the Blue Lagoon provides would’ve freed up so much room for things we actually needed for Iceland with kids.

And if you’re worried about wanting products or souvenirs, there’s also like a really cool spa… they have a store. So if you are wanting anything, they have stuff there as well. Instead of hauling bulky bottles from home “just in case,” it makes way more sense to travel light, use what’s included, and then, if you fall in love with something or realize you forgot something, you can just grab it there.

Discovering the Snæfellsnes Peninsula: The Tour That Ruined All the Others

This was the tour that kind of ruined all the others for us, in the best way. We booked this “Sniflesness… Snifllesness… S N A F E L L S Nes… small group tour with a homemade meal from Reykjavík,” and it ended up being our favorite thing we did in Iceland. I kind of wish we didn’t do it first because it just blew us away, and then everything else we did after felt a little underwhelming in comparison.

When I scheduled this, it did not have this many reviews. Now it actually has almost 520 reviews, but when I scheduled it, I think it only had like 100. So I wasn’t going off some massive, established thing. It just looked like a good fit for us as a family, starting from Reykjavík, and it mentioned a homemade meal, which sounded cozy and doable with kids.

The area we went to is the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, northwest of Reykjavík. One thing that really surprised us in Iceland is how different each part of the country looks. The Golden Circle, especially with all the lava fields, really reminded us of the Big Island in Hawaii. This northwest section we went to did not resemble Hawaii at all. It felt like a completely different trip, even though we were still just doing a day tour out of Reykjavík.

We drove around the coast, and this northwest section had these beautiful fjords, waterfalls, and really pretty coastal drives with snow-capped mountains in the background. We got to stop and see seals, which was a big hit with the kids. It wasn’t just “get out, take a picture, get back in the bus” the whole time, it felt like we were actually experiencing this whole different side of Iceland together.

We even went underground, like under the ocean, to get to the other side. That was a little trippy for our family. You’re in this tunnel, under the water, on a day trip with your kids, and it just adds to that feeling of, “Okay, this is not our normal life.” Compared to something like the Blue Lagoon, where you’re thinking about things like is Blue Lagoon worth it with kids, or Blue Lagoon hair damage with kids, this felt more like an all-day adventure than a single attraction.

If you’re looking at Iceland family tours age limits or trying to figure out which Reykjavík day trip makes sense with kids, this Snæfellsnes Peninsula tour with kids was the one that checked the most boxes for us compared to the classic Golden Circle and Blue Lagoon tour. It gave us fjords, waterfalls, seals, coastal drives, that wild northwest landscape, and that under-the-ocean tunnel moment, all in one day. And because it was a small group tour, it didn’t feel overwhelming for the kids.

On the content side of things, this was also one of those days where I was really glad we could later run our footage and notes through something like ContentFold, because there were a lot of little details and stops I didn’t want to forget when we turned it into a blog and newsletter.

if you can, I’d save this Snæfellsnes small group tour for the end of your trip. For us, doing it first set the bar so high that everything else had a tough time competing.

Feeding Icelandic Horses at a Mountain Farm: A Kid-Friendly Highlight

The surprise favorite part of our Snæfellsnes peninsula tour with kids wasn’t a waterfall or a viewpoint, it was lunch.

“That’s the actual place that we went to eat at. It was a horse farm… underneath the mountains.” The homemade meal on our Snæfellsnes tour was served there, and because it was on a working farm instead of a regular restaurant, it turned into this long, relaxed stop where the kids could actually move, explore, and hang out with animals instead of just sitting at a table.

While we were there, they told us about how many horses are in Iceland. “They said anywhere 100,000… they say like 80,000 are registered and then they think it’s about 100,000 horses, Icelandic horses.” And the other thing that really stuck with me was, “No other horse can be brought in Iceland, which was really cool.” So every horse you’re seeing is this pure Icelandic breed that’s been protected for a long time.

Seeing them up close with the kids, you really notice how different they feel compared to typical horses. “Their temperament is so calm… they’re also really short, so stocky, thick, so they’re not very intimidating especially for children.” That combo of being shorter and stockier makes a big difference when you’ve got younger kids who might be nervous around big animals. Instead of the kids hanging back, they were the ones walking up. “If you walk up to the fence, they’re all coming at you. They’re very friendly.”

Our kids were able to feed the horses grass and walk around the farm, and that ended up being the heart of the day for them. Instead of a quick meal stop where you rush everyone through food and back on the bus, we had time. “We were there for an hour and a half to two hours… it was amazing.” That 1.5 to 2 hour window gave the kids plenty of time to explore, go back and forth between the horses and the yard, and not feel like they were being dragged away the second they got comfortable.

And it wasn’t just the horses. There were also dogs and cats on the farm, which our kids loved. So while the adults were enjoying the view of this horse farm underneath the mountains and actually finishing a meal, the kids were outside feeding horses grass, petting dogs and cats, and running around. Compared to a typical restaurant stop on a tour, this felt completely different, way more like a built-in play break and animal encounter wrapped into one, which made the whole Snæfellsnes peninsula tour with kids feel a lot more doable.

The Homemade Lamb Meal That Beat Every Iceland Restaurant

This horse farm lunch beat every restaurant we tried in Iceland. And not just by a little. This was a full, homemade meal inside a house on the property, cooked for our small group, and it ended up being one of the food highlights of the entire trip.

They sat us down in this cozy dining area and started bringing out these platters, and I’m thinking it’s going to be a simple tour lunch. Then they put this lamb down and I’m like, okay, never mind. “They made this minced lamb meat wrapped in bacon with freaking cheese down the center of it. Maybe a top three lamb dish I’ve had in my entire life.” I’m not exaggerating that at all. I’ve had a lot of lamb, and this was up there.

And it wasn’t just the lamb. “The potatoes… oh my god.” I don’t know what they did to them, but they were the kind of thing you keep going back for even when you’re already full. On top of that, “They had a vegetarian dish, they had a vegan dish… they had chicken… they had a pot roast with this gravy.” The pot roast with gravy was really good, and it was nice that it wasn’t just one big tray of the same thing. There were actual options.

On the vegan side, they did try to accommodate, but it wasn’t on the same level. “The vegan dish was weak. They made it last minute because they didn’t realize someone was vegan in the other group. It was a pretty weak chickpea curry. But they had an option.” So if you’re vegan, just go in with that expectation. They’ll try, but it’s not the star of the show.

What really surprised us was how much our kids got into it. Sometimes on tours you end up at a generic restaurant and you’re just hoping there’s something the kids will eat. Here, “the food was so good. It was so, so good. Our kids loved it. I wish we could spend more time there.” Compared to a regular tour lunch stop, getting a home-cooked meal on a working farm like this, with that lamb, those potatoes, and all the different options, made the whole Snæfellsnes Peninsula tour with kids feel completely different. This one meal alone made the tour feel worth it.

Bonus Stop: Game of Thrones Filming Location on Snæfellsnes

If you’re a Game of Thrones fan, this tour throws in a fun little bonus.

They do have a big Game of Thrones stop on the Snæfellsnes peninsula tour. It’s one of the major filming locations they work into the day, and you can tell it’s a known thing because there were lots of other visitors there when we went. Compared to some of the quieter spots on the route, this one definitely felt more crowded and more pop‑culture focused.

You got to see like this really cool mountain and waterfall section there. It’s beautiful. Even if you’re not a superfan, it still works as a really nice landscape stop on the Snæfellsnes peninsula tour with kids, because visually it’s just a great place to get out and look around.

I can’t remember what season it’s from. I stopped watching after like season five, so I wasn’t having that “oh this exact scene” moment some people were, but it was still interesting to see how a place like that ends up as a big Iceland Game of Thrones tour stop and one of the better‑known Snæfellsnes Game of Thrones locations.

Why We’d Do the Snæfellsnes Tour Last Next Time

We did the Snæfellsnes Peninsula tour at the very start of our Iceland trip, and looking back, I kind of wish we didn’t do it first because it just blew us away. It ended up being our favorite tour of the entire week, for both us and the kids, and that kind of set the bar almost unrealistically high for everything that came after.

Then we did another tour a couple days later and we were kind of underwhelmed because we were so blown away on Snæfellsnes. It wasn’t that the later tours were bad; they just couldn’t compete with how good that first experience was. Starting with the clear standout made the rest of the week feel a little bit “less special” by comparison.

If we could redo the trip, we’d flip the order and schedule Snæfellsnes last so we’d end on that high note instead of starting with it. In terms of all the Iceland family tours we did, if I could recommend any tour, hands down, this would be the tour that you should take. Especially if you have kids. So as you’re thinking through your Iceland itinerary with kids, and how to stack things like the Blue Lagoon, other day trips, and age-limited activities, I’d put the Snæfellsnes Peninsula tour with kids toward the end of your schedule. It really is the one that made everything else feel different once we’d done it.

Our Guide Simon and Final Thoughts on Iceland With Kids

Our guy’s name was Simon. He was incredible… he was so knowledgeable. He’s from there and he just made it an overall wonderful experience for us and our children. We did a small-group Snæfellsnes Peninsula tour from Reykjavík with him, and even though we could not remember the exact company name while we were filming, we knew we wanted to at least mention him because having a local guide like that really changed the day for us. The pacing, the stories, the way he interacted with the kids, that’s a big part of why that Snæfellsnes peninsula tour with kids stands out when we look back on the trip.

Zooming out, we loved our trip to Iceland. Iceland was probably a top… maybe number one trip for me. I think it’s been my favorite trip. For our family overall, Iceland ranks as a top-two trip, and that’s stacked up against all the other places we’ve been. This is a month ago almost and we’re still freaking glowing about it. When we think back on the Blue Lagoon and all the “is Blue Lagoon worth it with kids” questions, the age limits on different Iceland family tours, even stuff like worrying about Blue Lagoon hair damage with kids or whether Sky Lagoon with kids would have worked, all of that kind of fades behind how good the actual experience felt for us. If you’re on the fence about Iceland with kids or looking up “Iceland with kids review” type stuff, our honest take, even a month later, is that it landed as one of our all-time favorite family trips.

A month later, when we ask the kids what they remember most about Iceland, they don’t start with the Blue Lagoon or even the big-name Golden Circle stops, they go straight to feeding horses under the mountains and that homemade lamb lunch on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. For us, that’s the biggest takeaway: the famous spots are fun and worth seeing, but the smaller, more personal experiences ended up defining the trip. If you’re planning Iceland with kids, hopefully our wins, mistakes, and strong opinions help you decide where to spend your time and money so your family comes home with the same kind of core memories, whether you prioritize lagoons or a Snæfellsnes Peninsula tour with kids.

Frequently Asked Questions

What age restrictions should I be aware of when planning tours in Iceland with kids?

Age limits can significantly impact your itinerary, as many tours require children to be at least six years old. Some activities may have higher minimum ages or require a one-to-one adult-to-child ratio, so it’s essential to check the details before booking.

Why did you choose the Blue Lagoon over the Sky Lagoon?

We opted for the Blue Lagoon because it has a more family-friendly age policy, allowing kids as young as six without strict adult-to-child ratios. The Sky Lagoon, while popular, had higher age restrictions that did not accommodate our younger children.

How did organized tours change your family’s experience in Iceland?

Booking organized tours from Reykjavík provided a structured experience that enhanced our enjoyment compared to our usual road-trip style. It allowed us to focus on the sights and activities without the stress of planning every detail.

What was the highlight of your trip to Iceland?

Our favorite tour was the Snæfellsnes Peninsula tour, which unexpectedly became the best experience of our entire trip. The combination of stunning landscapes and engaging activities made it memorable for the whole family.

How did you manage currency exchange while traveling in Iceland?

We used tools like Wise International Bank to facilitate currency exchange, which helped us avoid high fees when moving money between dollars, euros, and Icelandic króna. This made managing our travel budget much easier.
