Midnight Sun vs. Northern Lights:
 
Which will you choose?
 
Iceland is a beautiful blend of opposites all to itself. In the warm summer months, bask in the magic of the Midnight Sun as it illuminates the land with an enchanting glow. Watch a variety of seabirds flock above the towering cliffs. Cruise across Eyjafjörður, Iceland’s longest fjord, searching for whales. Witness the sun dipping in the sky, yet never fully setting.
 
Iceland becomes a whole new world as the weather cools down and the days shorten. The nights are long, and the winter skies become a dancing light show with the magical movements of the spectacular Northern Lights. Relax in geothermal pools as the snow falls around you. Gaze upon captivating glaciers, tumbling waterfalls, and grand icebergs set against a white backdrop.

† The Carefree Booking policy is not travel insurance and only applies to a new booking—defined as booking without the use of funds on file from a previous cancellation. With our Carefree Booking policy, if you book one of our scheduled departures and decide later not to travel for any reason, you can transfer all payments you've made excluding the cost of any issued flight tickets, towards another available departure date or package, with no change fees or penalties.

Alternately, you can choose to receive a future travel credit for all payments made, excluding the cost of any issued flight tickets; or you can choose to receive a refund for that same amount, minus the deposit, per person future travel credit.

You may use these credits anytime, however they must be used or transferred within 5 years of your booking.

The Carefree Booking policy only applies to your original booking—limiting rebookings to one. Subsequent bookings will be subject to standard cancellation penalties. Additionally, any coupon or discount (other than our Instant Savings) does not transfer from the cancelled booking and therefore will not be applied to the new booking.

Travel protection premiums may be credited to your new tour provided: no claim is filed; (no vendor penalties such as Air, sea or rail etc have been incurred); and your new trip departs within 1 year of the cancellation of your original tour.

Valid for bookings made on or after September 23, 2022 Offer may not be available on all packages, including private and custom group departures and Biblical Journeys. Changes or cancellations requested after final payment due date are subject to our regular change and cancellation fees & policies.
