Iceland School Group Holiday

Transport - Charter bus, on foot.
Accommodation - Hotel/cabins (4nts).
Meals - All meals whilst in country.
English speaking guide throughout.
1 free teacher place per 10 paying students.
The geology of Iceland is unique and very exciting. This is a dynamic and adventurous trip that visits all the major sites that are of special interest to Geography students; Þingvellir National Park, exhibitions, geothermal areas, black sand beaches, glaciers and a boat trip out to the Westman Islands.
This brilliant itinerary adds a twist of adventure to many of the typical sites. Instead of simply looking at the rift where tectonic plates meet you have the opportunity to go snorkelling in the crystal clear water of Silfrá fissure with the European tectonic plates on one side and America on the other. Instead of just viewing a glacier from afar we put on our crampons and hike onto the ice. We venture into an Icelandic lava cave, explore Geothermal areas, wonder at a town destroyed by an angry volcano and walk behind waterfalls.
This is a new, different and action-packed holiday designed to ignite interest and inspire pupils outside the classroom.

Þingvellir National Park with an adventurous twist
No Geography trip would be complete without a visit to the famous Þingvellir National Park (en. Parliament Fields). Þingvellir is a UNESCO world heritage site and the original birthplace of the oldest existing parliament in the world. From a geological point of view it is the place where the tectonic plates of America and Europe meet and the rift valley is clearly visible. To add a twist of adventure to the day we will go snorkelling in the crystal clear water of Silfrá fissure a unique swimming experience with the European tectonic plates on one side and America on the other.
Hiking on the Sólheimajökull glacier
The glaciers of Iceland are awe-inspiring. We bring them to life by taking your students hiking on the Sólheimajökull glacier. Hiking with crampons on the ice is a major highlight for them and is the perfect way for them to learn about glaciers and how they are formed. It is also the only way for them to get up close to magnificent ice sculptures, crevasses and cauldrons.
Exploring Geothermal Areas, Waterfalls and Hot Springs
A trip to Iceland wouldn't be complete without visiting the famous geyser region and the impressive glaciers that cover the island. These huge masses of ice move over land and have formed over many years, slowly carving a path through the lanscape. You'll visit the Gulfoss 'Golden Waterfall.
Reykjavik & Blue Lagoon
You arrive into Iceland's capital Reykjavik, where you will admire its rugged surroudings. Then visit the moon-like surroundings of Lake Kleifarvatn and the hot springs and thermal pools. Then on to the Blue Lagoon, where you can swim in the blue waters.
Boat trip to the Westman Islands: Full day exploring the area where a volcano destroyed an entire town.
Today gives the students a brilliant opportunity see firsthand the destruction caused by a volcanic eruption. We drive from Skógar to the harbour (45 mins) and take a boat out to the beautiful island of "Vestmannaeyjar" or Westman Islands. The boat trip takes about 30 minutes and there is a good chance you will see seals and puffins along the way and possibly whales if you are lucky.
They say that the Westman Islands are one of the best kept secrets in Iceland; they boast beautiful mountains, active volcanoes and lots of seabirds. The volcanic eruption in Vestmannaeyjar in 1973 is, without doubt, considered the largest natural disaster in Iceland in recent history. The eruption begun on January 23rd on the island of Heimaey, the only populated island of the Vestmannaeyjar archipelago. After the evacuation of the inhabitants, and during the 5 months while the eruption lasted, there was much uncertainty as to whether or not the island could ever be repopulated. The eruption destroyed over a third of the town and to this day you can see over 400 homes and buildings covered by lava and ash. You will have a full day on the Island exploring this unique area.
