Around Iceland by Small Ship 9 days - May-Jun - From US $ 2,790
Step aboard the Professor Multanovskiy, and spend nine days exploring the allure and beauty of Iceland and its surrounding islands. From the snow capped volcanic mountains rising in the distance, to whale watching in the soft midnight light of the all-night sun, each day will present a new experience. Zodiacs will take you ashore, allowing you the chance to travel back in time as you walk across the frozen tundra to a 17th century whaling station. Along the way, you will marvel at the delicacy and color of the vegetation that dots the tundra, admiring how it stands in contrast to the white glaciers that impede upon the land in many places.
The enchanting trips through the fjords of the islands give you a unique opportunity to witness life in the arctic up close. From reindeer and arctic foxes to unique birds, and maybe even a polar bear or two, the High Arctic is home to animals and sightseeing unlike anywhere else. Iceland, like no place else on earth, presents life in its most pure form, where the colors are brighter and the scenery more beautiful than anything you have seen before.
