How many otherworldly sights can you see in five days? On this introduction to the ‘Land of Fire and Ice’ we keep a nightly watch for the magical Northern Lights, while seeing snow-capped volcanoes, crashing waterfalls and magnificent glaciers by day. We marvel at the Strokkur fountain geyser, sometimes 30m high. We relax in the silky waters of the Blue Lagoon. And in the capital, ReykjavÃk, we witness the enormous HallgrÃmskirkja (Church of HallgrÃmur), a unique landmark in a country brimming with surprises. Our Iceland short breaks are fantastic for first-time visitors to this beautiful island.

Pass the snow-capped volcanoes of Hekla and Eyjafjallaj & kull on our way. The Seljalandsfoss and Skgarfoss waterfalls, tumbling over high rock escarpments and the little village of Vik, with its black sand beach are among the highlights. Just off the coast you'll see the dramatic Reynisdrangar sea-stacks, which legend says are petrified trolls. We will also stop at Skogar to visit the Skogar Folk Museum, with its collection of restored turf-roofed houses, and pass the Skull glacier before returning to Hella.

Strokkur geyser erupts every 10 minutes or so, reaching up to 30 metres in height. We also visit Thingvellir, site of the world's first democratic parliament, the Althing, which first met here in 930. Thingvellir National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the dramatic canyon running through the park is the dividing fault line between two of Earth's tectonic plates.
