Travel Guide

ATV trip with Arcanum was highlight of our day (even though this was the day we saw the "big" waterfalls) rode along the ocean, through rivers, up hills, to whale bones and 'the' plane wreck. The wind was insane and there was driving sleet, weather we would never go out in at home, but we were toasty in our suits and never noticed the elements!

The famous Sólheimasandur Plane Crash - somewhat eerie but very cool to see. Definitely worth a detour ! Instructions on how to get here will be up on the blog in upcoming weeks. #WATravels #MyStopover
Icelanders have spent generations breeding their horses (the only type of horse allowed in the country) to withstand Iceland's unpredictable, and often bad weather and to be able to walk easily through the country's uneven, rocky terrain. They have a thick coat, are very friendly, and have two unique gaits, called tölt and flugskeið. You see them everywhere in the countryside, even more than cows! We saw this handsome guy on our drive between Skógafoss and Vík.

The location is stunning! Everything around the town is within walking distance, which is very convenient. The room looked new and fresh. The only odd thing is that the staff would clear up the breakfast buffet before 10am. We got there at 09:30 and had to quickly get all food in one go as the staff ...

This property was incredible and I wish we had booked more than one night here on our trip. We would have liked having one day to just slow down and enjoy the scenery and the calm atmosphere that is The Garage. Anna had fresh baked cookies for us as we arrived and it was just the most wonderful experience. ...
