Follow us on our Grand Icelandic Roadtrip!
Born from the fiery womb of the earth, and shaped by glaciers, tempests, and swells, Iceland bears a likeness to the earth when it was young - a boisterous spirit, untamed and running wild. Combining the inhospitable plains of the central highlands with moss-adorned river canyons and massive ice sheets, Iceland is the crown jewel of our planet’s rich treasures.

Thank you:
A big THANK YOU goes to Arngrímur (Aggi) Arnarson who helped us tremendously with correctly pronouncing all Icelandic names. We'd also like to thank Aleš Mucha and North Sailing (https://www.northsailing.is) for taking us out on their Whales, Sails and Science expedition! Last but not least, a massive THANK YOU goes to Uni, Unnar and Birgir from UniCars (https://www.facebook.com/unicars.is) for helping us in our predicament, being stranded with a broken rear differential in the Icelandic highlands.

Flying a drone in Iceland:
Please be aware that restrictions on flying drones in Iceland apply. As an example, flying in national parks requires you to obtain a license. Read more about that here: https://ust.is/english/visiting-iceland/faq/#drones. If you intend to fly a drone in Vatnajökull National Park, make sure to apply through https://www.vatnajokulsthjodgardur.is/en/communities--businesses/permits.

Please understand, that we obtained such a permit to shoot in Vatnajökull National Park. In general, be mindful of other visitors and do not disturb their experience by flying a drone directly above their heads. This is both dangerous and extremely ignorant. Don’t be this guy.

Real Talk:
Despite our attempt at keeping our Iceland Travel Documentary as authentic as possible, you are still watching a highlight reel. When editing, we naturally tend to choose the most exciting clips. What you don’t see are the hours spent driving through less spectacular landscapes or some of the challenges we faced.

Full Disclosure:
This trip was entirely self-funded. However, we participated in two complimentary whale-watching tours with North Sailing.
