Iceland: Best Places to Visit
 
Iceland's main attraction is its landscapes, which vary from glacial to volcanic. Parts of its coast and fjords are spectacular and its snow capped mountains are glorious. During winter, a view of the Northern Lights on a clear night is a thrilling experience.

Iceland is a tough destination to categorize. If only Iceland were compact and conveniently located! It is hard to use Iceland as an Add-on destination due to its remoteness and the time it takes to see the countryside. Conversely, the cultural landscapes are limited and the country lacks  quality attractions other than its landscapes.

Iceland is a good place for independent travel but we recommend a tour or the use of a guide if you are going to travel off the Ring Road encircling the country.
