Remarkable landscapes and natural beauty

Witness the incredible energy of Iceland's geysers, thundering waterfalls and fascinating wildlife with us, as we set sail on this Oddfellows-escorted group cruise.

You'll have chances to capture the falls of Godafoss, spot humpbacks on a whale watching tour, and it's also the perfect time of year to catch a glimpse of the island's puffins.

Some of the trip's many highlights include cruising along the calm waters of Eyjafjörður, Iceland’s longest fjord, a visit to Hornstrandir Nature Reserve, one of Iceland’s most remote areas, and there will be plenty of chances to sample traditional Icelandic dishes, like Arctic char, lamb, and skyr.

We'll also be hosting a free on board group drinks party, so you can get to know other members of our group and share your sightseeing experiences.
