6-Day Private Family Summer Tour of Iceland

Glaciers, geysers, black beaches, and geothermal wonders — all at your family's own pace.


This 6-day private family summer tour of Iceland takes families on a carefully structured journey through the country's most iconic landscapes, from the tectonic wonders of the Reykjanes Peninsula to the dramatic waterfalls and glaciers of the South Coast.

Designed with an easy difficulty rating, this itinerary balances discovery and comfort, making it accessible for children and adults alike. Each day introduces a new region of Iceland, with flexible add-ons such as horseback riding, ATV excursions, or glacier walks for families seeking extra adventure.

From the geothermal warmth of the Blue Lagoon and Secret Lagoon to the geological drama of Thingvellir National Park, every stop is chosen to connect travelers with Iceland's unique natural and cultural heritage. Whale watching, puffin spotting, and a visit to the Perlan Museum round out a tour that covers both the wild outdoors and the character of Reykjavík itself.

Private guiding throughout the tour means the experience adapts to your family's rhythm, interests, and energy levels, offering an intimate and unhurried way to explore one of the world's most extraordinary destinations.

Tour Highlights

Relax in the world-renowned Blue Lagoon geothermal spa on the Reykjanes Peninsula.

Walk on the surface of Sólheimajökull glacier, an outlet of the Mýrdalsjökull ice cap (age limit 10 years applies).

Stand behind Seljalandsfoss waterfall, one of the few in the world that can be accessed from behind.

Cross the Bridge Between Two Continents, spanning the fissure between the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates.

Spot puffins and other seabirds at Dyrhólaey promontory and join a whale and puffin watching cruise from Reykjavík.

Enjoy a rare lunch inside the Friðheimar geothermal greenhouse, dining on tomatoes grown right there in the volcanic soil.
