Iceland comes alive in the late spring.   Come along for a full 10 day tour around the island.   In May the days are so long, it does not get dark until very late at night.   Puffins have arrived back to the cliffs, whales are abundant, and spring is in the air.   Lambing season is here, spend some time on a local farm with the farmers helping out during lambing season.   This tour is the best we have to offer in Iceland to immerse you in Iceland´s nature, culture, and food, and meet locals.
