Frequently asked questions about lodges in Iceland
Which attractions shouldn't be missed in Iceland?
So many incredible sights! For natural wonders, the Blue Lagoon is a must for its geothermal waters, and Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon is breathtaking with its icebergs. Then there's Gullfoss waterfall, powerful and majestic, and Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site showcasing the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. For city exploration, Reykjavík offers Hallgrímskirkja church with its iconic architecture and the Harpa Concert Hall, a stunning modern building.
What are the main arrival points by air for Iceland?
Keflavík International Airport (KEF) is the main airport, serving almost all international flights. It's conveniently located relatively close to Reykjavík.
What parts of Iceland are perfect for a week-long visit?
A week allows for a good exploration of the south coast, including the Golden Circle (Thingvellir, Geysir, Gullfoss), Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon, and Skaftafell Nature Reserve. You could also include a day trip to the Snaefellsnes Peninsula, often called 'Miniature Iceland' for its diverse landscapes.
What are the best lodges for families and kids in Iceland?
Which parts of Iceland are ideal for a weekend trip?
For a short trip, focus on the Reykjavík area and the Golden Circle. This allows you to see some of the most iconic sights without rushing. You can easily explore Reykjavík's city centre and then experience the geothermal areas and waterfalls of the Golden Circle in a day trip.
Are there any traditional greetings or practices in Iceland?
A firm handshake is common. While not a greeting per se, Icelanders generally maintain a respectful personal space. Also, removing your shoes upon entering someone's home is customary.
What ride-hailing options, including Uber, are available in Iceland?

The south coast offers a wide range of activities: glacier hiking, ice caving (in winter), whale watching tours from various locations like Húsavík, and exploring Vatnajökull National Park, Europe's largest national park.
