GF and I are celebrating our 20th anniversary this spring and she's been dying to see the northern lights.... so we're off to Iceland.
The way the flights work out, we've got an overnight stay in London on the way out and back, and want to make the most of that too.
Very much would love suggestions/tips for both destinations.
Current agenda:
Thurs 2/23: Fly memphis > London (red eye)
Friday 2/24:
Land in London @ 10am
(Tips on neighborhood for hotel/AirBNB?)
Saturday 2/25:
Depart for Reykjavik at 7am
....spend night in Downtown (AirBNB to be booked)
Sunday 2/26 - Thursday 3/2:
rent car and drive to Hotel Ranga as a "resort" built around seeing the northern lights (remote, wake up calls, nice dining, nice bar, hot tubs, day excursions).
Planning a snowmobile glacier run one day. There are some old ice caves too. I've HEARD the main roads in the south aren't bad even in Feb/March?
Thursday Night 3/2 - Sat 3/4:
Stay in downtown Rejkyavik. Exploring.
Sat 3/4: Land in London at 2:50pm
(Where to stay, what to do?)
Sun 3/5:
Fly out from London around 1:30pm.
Welcome any and all suggestions!
