Founded in 1929, Guðmundur Jónasson Travel Iceland has spent the last nine decades showcasing its native land to travelers from around the world. It offers a variety of pre-set itineraries, small-group/private tours and customized FIT packages, including the following three that are geared for groups:

Northern Lights Exploration  True to its name, this winter favorite is geared for those hoping to get a glimpse of the aurora borealis as it illuminates the night sky. Offered from September to April, the eight-day itinerary provides a 98 percent chance of seeing the northern lights by focusing on the more rural areas of western, southern and southeastern Iceland.

Travelers also will sail between floating icebergs on a glacial lake, go on a whale-watching excursion, bathe in a mineral-rich geothermal pool and take a stroll on black-lava beaches.
