Photo Tour Log
Here we describe a handful of the tours already completed to show what conditions can be expected during different seasons. Even in a single day with a normal driving range we can experience a variety of weather systems.

July 2016 4 days Landmannalaugar – Jökulsarlon

August 2016 – North Iceland & Westfjords
This was a camping trip in mid-August. Temperatures are just about comfortable for camping with a good sleeping bag. The clear advantages are the flexibility.
June 2010 Jökulsarlon and East Fjords
This was a Summer photo tour around Iceland, but this post will look a the first couple of days including Jökulsarlon and the East Fjords.
August 2010 Landmannalaugar
We departed from Reykjavik and headed towards the interior to a geothermal area called Landmannalaugar, the natural gem in the southern highlands of Iceland.
August 2015 – 2 day Jökulsarlon late schedule
3 Summer Nights July 2014
April 2014 5 day tour
This tour took us to the North of Iceland to catch some Winter waterfalls and the powerful Dettifoss before the big thaw.
May 2014 – 7 day tour
This was a tour which took us around Iceland at a time of the year when Winter turns into Summer, the deep snows melt gently revealing colourful herbs and mosses. Waterfalls are fresh and sparkling with the anticipation of Summer and the newly arrived migratory birds sing well into the long evenings.
