What is your recommendation for hotel that you pick up from/is close to pick up area? Also, does the shuttle from airport drop off and pick up near this area?

We can pick up from hotels in Reykjavík or the nearest bus stop, if the hotel is in the bus restricted zone. The Flybus operates in the same area.

I am not sure which night's accommodation is included in this package. What are the hotels that are included in this tour please?

For the 5-day Journey Around Iceland, the accommodation included is in the countryside around Iceland. Day 1 Akureyri, Day 2 Egilsstaðir, Day 3 Höfn, Day 4 Selfoss. So you would have to book the nights in Reykjavík prior to departure and after you get back to the city.

Can you advise what options you have for touring the island with accommodation please?

We are only operating the Ring Road tour once a week departing from Reykjavik on Mondays at 9am. If you are arriving at 6am or around that time there is a possibility for you to still join the tour starting the 31st August. You would have to book a private transfer with us from the airport so that we can coordinate between the drivers to make sure you would get to the tour on time.

Can you provide more info on whats included with this? Is the blue lagoon included? I'm looking to go Oct '26.

What's Included: Accommodation with private bathroom for 4 nights, Expert guidance from a professional local guide, Breakfast at the hotel, Visit to Glaumbær Folk Museum, Amphibian Boat Tour on Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, Pickup and drop-off at your hotel, Small group tour in spacious vehicle. Blue Lagoon Comfort admission not included, must be purchased separately.

Would we get picked up from here or would we have to walk somewhere for pickup?

You would be picked up directly from the Bus Hostel Reykjavík.

Would you be able to tell me the names of the accommodation for this tour?

The hotels used on this departure are Berjaya Akureyri, Lake Hotel in Egilsstaðir, Berjaya Höfn and Hotel Selfoss.

  MY travel friend and I want to pay separately but travel together of course. How do we go about this please as we are wanting to book before the deal ends.
- Snaeland TravelOperator•Written November 2025
  I do believe there is an option on the Tour Radar Platform to split the booking this way when you make the booking. Share the Cost: Traveling with a friend or booking for a large group? You can now share the cost of your tour with split payments, in just three steps.
