A highlight of many cruise itineraries is Reykjavik, one of northern Europe's most stylish cities and home to a vibrant music and arts scene. There are many excursions available to visitors on a cruise from Iceland, head to the harbour and join a boat tour for a spot of whale watching, frolic in the Mediterranean like waters of Nautholsvik Geothermal Beach and after a hard days sightseeing soak your aching limbs in the Blue Lagoon, voted the best medical spa worldwide.

Cruise into Akureyri a charming town located on Eyjafjordur, stroll through its stunning botanical gardens, pick up a memento at Santa's house, a Christmas store open all year round and take a shore excursion to the beautiful Godafoss Waterfall. Visit Grundarfjordur, one of the oldest villages in Iceland, it lies in a beautiful fjord and is surrounded by spectacular mountains, most notably Mount Kirkjufell and its dramatic surrounding lava field. The town is perfect for those who love the outdoors with activities such as hiking, bird watching, horse riding, fishing, and in winter, skiing and ice climbing.

Visit the Slunkariki Art Gallery and the West Fjords Folk Museum, potter around the interesting town centre full of small shops, unique houses and old streets brimming with character and take advantage of the sloping mountains by indulging in many of the outdoor pursuits on offer.
