TOP TRAVEL TIPS:
*Yes the Blue Lagoon is touristy, but don't miss it! You can spend as much time as you want there, so it's worth just relaxing for a few hours.
*Make your Blue Lagoon reservations online before you go! The do sell out!!
*Sunlight is limited in the winter (11 am - 4 pm), so getting everything you want to see in one day can be a challenge. Just be aware!
*The Golden Circle has beautiful stops, but be aware that there is little food or gas along this route, so come prepared.
*Iceland's rental cars may charge a per km per day limit. Be aware as this is easy to do since the country is huge.
*The drive to Krikjufell Mountain is far, but worth the trip. The scenery changes drastically along the way and makes the drive memorable with a great end destination. Also, the town of Grundarfjörður has places to eat after the road trip. We ate at Bjargar-stein and it was wonderful.
*Kopar in Reykjavik is one of the most well known restaurants and serves gourmet food. Recommend for a special night!
*Iceland has very little alcoholic options at grocery stores, so buy alcohol at the Duty Free store when leaving the airport.
