GET ICELAND

Get to know this mysterious blue island – so aptly misnamed. Visit this strange land of ice and fire, the youngest in all Europe, with islands as young as 45 years old!

Enjoy the nordic summer night, all blue and white, corresponding in hue with the white of the glaciers and mountain blue, also represented in our national flag, along with the red of the fire.

Dream under the illumination of the mysterious northern lights, green and violet, where sparks fly around the sky in the clear winter nights.

Enjoy snowy filled desolation, where nothing can be seen except white expanses and the colour of sky and earth are one. Feel the wind and the snowflakes hold you in their clutch during a snowstorm – Iceland has some of the most accessible desolation in the world.

Get to know the strange history of this remote island – which now is not so remote, due to air travel, the unusual society of medieval times – a republic without a king, unheard of in medieval times – the fall from grace into captivity and the long years of poverty under foreign rule, and the resurrection of the republic.

See the cultural remains of these strange times, the famous manuscripts, telling the whole history of the north, and the durable ways the impoverished people used to sustain themselves in unbelievably troubled times, the naive art, folklore and strange uncommon food.

Get all of this with us – GET ICELAND.
