This land of fire and ice amazes. Its geothermal wonders create some of the most dramatic natural spectacles on earth: Steaming geysers, and surreal landscapes of Glaciers, thundering waterfalls and volcanic craters.

Transfer to the port and embark MS Fridtjof Nansen for your seven night expedition of Iceland

Your expedition cruise starts in Reykjavík – a laid-back city of art, culture and history, delightful Reykjavík is well worth spending some time getting to know.
Take a stroll along Laugavegur with its boutiques and outdoor shops, gaze in awe at the striking Hallgrímskirkja Church, and drop in on the fascinating Reykjavík Art Museum.
Your expedition ship awaits you in Reykjavík Harbour. After being welcomed aboard and collecting your complimentary expedition jacket, it's time to settle into your cabin before enjoying your first dinner aboard.

Snæfellsnes is a peninsula of dramatic coastlines, volcanic peaks, lava fields, black sand beaches and traditional fishing villages, all set beneath the glacier-capped Snæfellsjökull volcano. It inspired Jules Verne's book, Journey to the Centre of the Earth, and it's often called Iceland in miniature because almost every landscape the country is known for can be found here in one compact stretch of coast.
From our port in Grundarfjörður, overlooked by the iconic Kirkjufell mountain, you can join excursions around the peninsula or explore the surroundings on foot.

One of the most exciting aspects of any expedition is that you never know what you'll discover. Over these two expedition days, we'll explore the Westfjords and highlands of northwest Iceland, a landscape of sheer sea cliffs, narrow fjords, and vast tundra plateaus that feel like the edge of the world. Almost inaccessible by land, this region is only truly reachable by sea.
Your Expedition Team will read conditions each day and adapt the plan: expect Zodiac cruising beneath towering bird cliffs, hikes across wild headlands, and landings at isolated fjord-side settlements where fishing communities have held on for generations. Look out for Arctic foxes on shore and seabird colonies numbering in the thousands.

Today you'll discover Húsavík, a charming fishing town and one of the best places in the world to see whales. It looks out over Skjálfandi Bay, where humpback and minke whales, white-beaked dolphins, harbour porpoises, and even the elusive blue whale are regularly spotted.
On shore, the Whale Museum brings you closer to these giants, while the Exploration Museum tells a more unexpected story: in the 1960s, NASA sent 32 Apollo astronauts to train in the lunar-like lava fields nearby, preparing them to collect rock samples on the Moon. For something more relaxing, soak in the geothermal waters at GeoSea overlooking the bay, or end the day with a beer at the local microbrewery.

Iceland's east coast is cut by deep fjords, lined with tumbling waterfalls and bird-filled cliffs. Quiet villages dot the shoreline, including Bakkagerði, known as Iceland's puffin capital, where nearby platforms at Hafnarhólmi let you watch Atlantic puffins nesting in their thousands.
Beyond the birds, this is a landscape steeped in folklore and drama. We might visit Álfaborg, the legendary 'elf rock' said to house the queen of the queen of the 'hidden people' – huldufólk – and look up at the jagged Dyrfjöll peaks and colourful rhyolite mountains framing the fjord. Thanks to our Zodiacs, we can reach stretches of this coastline that are otherwise inaccessible, exploring Iceland in true expedition style.

Our first stop is Heimaey, the only inhabited island in the Westman Islands, off Iceland's south coast. In 1973 an eruption nearly buried the town, and the island still carries the evidence.
Visit Eldheimar, a museum built around an excavated house frozen mid-disaster, then hike to Stórhöfði, where around eight million puffins nest each summer, or climb Mount Eldfell for views of the town from the volcano that almost destroyed it.

Reykjavík, the world's northernmost capital, offers a striking blend of icy landscapes and fiery volcanic activity.

YOUR INCREDIBLE JOURNEY
Shaped by lava below and ice above, Iceland is a country of contrasts. Here, tumbling glaciers meet sparkling fjords surrounded by towering volcanoes and smoking hills. Four fifths of the land is uninhabited and wildlife takes the lead, with around 23 whale species in the surrounding waters, joined by dolphins, seals and multitudes of seabirds. Guided by the HX Expedition Team, you’ll explore the country’s varied landscapes, losing yourself in natural beauty as you skim the waters of a fjord by kayak, scan the waves for ocean giants on small expedition boat cruises, and walk in the realm of the gods, trolls and elves of myth and legend. You’ll visit culture-rich cities and traditional fishing villages, spend long days in forests and geothermal pools and perhaps even cross the Arctic Circle.
INCLUDED EXCURSIONS & ACTIVITIES
Dynjandi Waterfall breathtaking beauty En route to the waterfall, enjoy a scenic drive through the Westfjords with your local guide. Travelling through this glacier carved region, you’ll pass remote villages, soaring mountains and deep, breathtaking fjords. When you arrive, a 15-minute hike past smaller waterfalls brings you to the base of Dynjandi. You’ll be moved by the majesty of this beautiful waterfall which roars down the mountain. Take in the views and capture the moment with incredible photos.
