Iceland, Norway and Scotland

Upon arrival in Reykjavik, please make your way to your hotel for check in. 

Enjoy the next 3 days at your own leisure.  

There's a good reason that Iceland is considered a photographer's dream destination. Its terrain is visually stunning, offering views of lava flows, hot springs, unspoiled nature - and colourful, fascinating cities like Reykjavik. The world's most northerly capital brings together quaint villages, exciting museums, a flourishing music scene and restaurants that rival Europe's finest.

As the largest town in Iceland's remote Westfjords's region, Ísafjörður is a magnet for outdoor enthusiasts.

Boasting an enchanting fjord ideal for watersports and a mountainous landscape brimming with opportunities for hiking, biking, horseback riding and more, there's something for everyone to enjoy. Originally a church site and a 16th century trading post, the town of Ísafjörður is home to wonderful museums and historic sites for those wishing to learn about the region's rich heritage and local culture.

Nestled along the shores of one of the most breathtaking fjords in Iceland, Akureyri is the nation's second largest urban area and a centre of Icelandic folk culture.

Visit the museums, hike along the extraordinary vistas or explore the botanical gardens. Shop in one of the charming boutiques and then catch a glimpse of the most northerly 18-hole golf course in the world. After you've worked up an appetite, feast on some Nordic specialties like smoked lamb and fresh fish and then indulge in an Icelandic fried pastry.
 

Situated on the eastern side of Vågsøy island, Måløy is one of the country's most important fishing ports.

Though a small coastal village of only a few thousand residents, the region surrounding Måløy is big on outdoor activities, fresh seafood and is steeped in history. From lounging on the nearly mile-long silver sand beach Refviksanden - considered one of the country's finest swimming spots - to hiking along the rugged coast and visiting picturesque lighthouses, there are numerous ways to soak in the natural beauty of Norway.

Whether you wish to dive into Norway's dramatic past, dip into its mesmerizing fjords, lace up your hiking boots for a mountain adventure, or attend a cultural event, Leirvik and its surrounding lands offer something for everyone.

The town hugs the southern coastline of Stord - a large island referred to as "Norway in miniature" due to its varied landscapes. Embark on a guided kayaking excursion or fishing trip for a glimpse into residents' close relationship to the waterways. Explore Leirvik's museums, art galleries, and boutiques or soak up incredible vistas during a stroll along the coast or on a hike up a mountain.

Make sure you pack your walking shoes for Edinburgh.

Stroll along the medieval Royal Mile to the Palace of Holyroodhouse to see the abbey and Queen Mary's chambers. Savour the old town's marvelous Georgian and Victorian architecture. Marvel at the impressive Edinburgh Castle, high on its volcanic crag with a fabulous view. Visit St. Giles' Cathedral where John Knox once preached. Leave enough time to rest your legs at one of Edinburgh's seaside restaurants to enjoy fresh salmon, scallops, lamb and prime Angus beef.
