5 Things You Will Love & Hate about Visiting Iceland
Hate #1. You will need to rent a car to experience Iceland. The country is sparsely populated and has limited public transport. There are a number of tourist agencies that can help you, but your best bet is to rent a 4 wheel drive vehicle and explore Iceland on your own.
Hate #2 Lack of accommodation. Iceland is getting better with more guest houses and hotels opening around the country, however the tourist boom has made it tough to find some accommodation during peak summer season so make sure you book early.
Hate #3. The distances between gas stations and service areas. Best bet is to have extra food in the car and always top up your gas tank when you can if you are doing the Golden Circle drive all around the island.
Hate #4. The temperamental Icelandic weather. Bring layers as even in the summer it can be very cool in Iceland. Also, with midnight sun in the summer and little daylight in winter sleeping times can be a challenge.
Hate #5. Iceland is expensive. Food, lodging, etc. can be very expensive in Iceland. Flights are a good deal though.
Love #1. The otherworldly beauty of Iceland. Iceland is a travel photographer’s paradise. Waterfalls, glaciers, icebergs, puffins, mountains, fjords, just so much natural beauty.
Love #2. The Icelandic People are amazing. The people are very friendly, helpful, speak great English and the country in a whole is very safe.
Love #3. Visiting The Blue Lagoon or another Hot Thermal Spa. Iceland has amazing swimming pools and calming hot thermal spas that everyone to Iceland must visit.
Love #4. The Amount of Outdoor Activities Available for Tourists. From whale watching, mountain climbing, watching iceberg flows,
Love #5. How environmentally friendly visiting Iceland can be. Whether it is locally sourced food or clothes or how they work on sustainable strategies the environmentally friendly Iceland you see is amazing.
