The land of fire and ice is ready for its moment in the spotlight, basked in the pinkish hues of its never setting sun or the dazzling blues of the Northern Lights.
The starting point to any Icelandic itinerary is Reykjavik, the world’s most northerly capital. Oozing a effortless sense of style, the city is unequivocally cosmopolitan, abuzz with trendy bars, a thriving music scene and world-class eateries.
