WHAT TO DO ON A SHORT BREAK WITH A TWIST
One day you might be snorkelling through the Silfra Fissure in Iceland, the next relaxing in the iconic Blue Lagoon, or perhaps taking to the skies in a hot air balloon soaring above the incredible Cappadocia valley.
Our collection of unmissable experiences will make your short break with a twist forever memorable.
Silfra Fissure Snorkelling
Departs: Reykjavik
Think you’ve seen clear water? You’ve not snorkelled in Thingvellir National Park! This fissure marks the split between two continents, Eurasia and North America, so squeeze into a dry suit and don your snorkel to drift above a spectacular underwater ravine where underwater visibility reaches 150m.
Husky Sledding Adventure from Tromso
Departs: Tromso
Ever imagined you could command your own team of huskies in the snowy Arctic? Well now’s your chance! Drive out into the Norwegian wilderness to meet your new friends and join a small group to learn from a local Musher, before taking to the snowy trails yourself. Afterwards, warm up with a hot drink and homemade chocolate cake in a traditional lavvu tent. Please note: the minimum age for this tour is 7.
Cappadocia Hot Air Balloon Flight
Departs: Cappadocia
As the only place in the world where hundreds of balloons fly at sunrise, a balloon flight across the Cappadocia valley is a true spectacle! Experience the tranquillity of a flight above the colourful valleys and unique rock formations. Back on earth, toast to your journey with a glass of bubbles.
Blue Lagoon Experience
Departs: Reykjavik
The Blue Lagoon is Iceland’s most iconic attraction and an unmissable experience on any trip here.
Northern Lights Explorer
Departs: Reykjavik
The magical dance of the Northern Lights is a sight to behold! Led by expert guides, they’ll ensure the best route is taken in search of this natural phenomenon and will share some famous Icelandic stories along the way. Observing the marvel of the aurora in all its glory will definitely be a night to remember.
Private High Atlas Mountains Half Day Trek
Departs: Atlas Mountains
From serious mountaineers to casual day hikers, the Atlas Mountains is a trekker’s paradise. Your private guide gives you the flexibility to set the pace during a hike in this special area. The route can vary but you’re guaranteed great views and a refreshing mint tea at a traditional Berber village.
