Christmas in Iceland

Short breaks

21. December 2023

This itinerary is based on arriving in Iceland on 21. December 2023. If you are arriving on 22. or 23. December, we’ll rearrange your itinerary accordingly so you will still enjoy all the Christmas activities and festivities on 24. December 2023.
Arrival at Keflavik Airport. The FlyBus transfer coach will be waiting outside the Arrivals Hall. Please show your Iceland Travel documents to the attendant on board the bus and let him or her know your hotel in Reykjavik. Please note that this is an unguided transfer, and you will not be met at the airport. 
Transfer to your hotel. Please note that most hotels start check-in around 14:00 &#8211; 16:00 (2:00pm 4:00pm)
Reykjavik is decked out in its Christmas lights, and we recommend taking a stroll down the main shopping street to enjoy the festive decorations and atmosphere. Why not try a local city tradition and enjoy ice skating on Ingolfstorg square to holiday tunes? Or browse around the little booths in the square while sipping a mug of hot cocoa or Icelandic mulled wine?
Dinner this evening is at your leisure. Reykjavik has a wonderful variety of restaurants that suit many travel budgets. Choosing a place to dine is part of the fun.
Later in the evening, if weather conditions allow, you will join a motorcoach tour in search of the magnificent northern lights. If luck is on your side, you’ll see the glory of the northern lights dancing in the Icelandic sky! During the tour, your guide will tell you about the auroras and will provide some basic information about how to take pictures of northern lights.
Note: If we need to cancel a tour because weather and viewing conditions are not ideal you can take the tour on another night of your trip.
Overnight in Reykjavik.
