We had the most magical holiday in Iceland thanks to Baltic Travel. We flew into a thickly covered snowy Iceland, which much to the locals' surprise, stayed for the whole duration of our holiday and it snowed on top of the thick covering that was already there! Not a drop of rain in sight! It was so beautiful and Christmassy. We were incredibly lucky! We wanted to thank Baltic Travel for all of their seamless organisation, which worked very well. Our Reykjavik Excursions tour guides for the day, were all charming and professional, with a mountain of knowledge to share with us all. The Northern Lights trip was cancelled due to cloud cover on the night we were meant to go but easily re-booked for the following night. The Blue Lagoon being closed, actually worked out really well for us, as it gave us some magical downtime, to walk through the highlights of Reykjavik and enjoy it in daylight hours. We would not have been able to see the harbour view from our hotel and all the beautiful highlights of the city, had we been on the Blue Lagoon trip. Having said that, I am sure that the Blue Lagoon would have had stunning scenery as well. Laura at Baltic Travel was exceptionally quick and thorough in letting us know of the Blue Lagoon closure and offered us a fabulous alternative, which she swiftly and efficiently booked for us and instantly sent us the voucher paperwork via email. Hvammsvik Hot Springs (the alternative) was booked for the evening and was great fun and by the photo's that we saw of it, had equally stunning scenery but of course, we couldn't see it. It gets dark in Iceland around 3.30 ish in the afternoon in late December! But on such a short break and at that time of year, you can't have everything! What we did have and see though, was beautiful and magical. I would even suggest that maybe Baltic Travel offer the free day exploring and evening Hvammsvik excursion as an alternative option to the Blue Lagoon. I think a lot of people would enjoy being able to explore Reykjavik in daylight to see the gaily coloured original houses, beautiful harbour, the gorgeous old part of Reykjavik, fabulous churches and churchyards, picturesque frozen over city lake, enormous array of wonderful restaurants with fabulous quality food and of course the abundance of twinkling Christmas lights, absolutely everywhere! The Icelandic people certainly know how to do Christmas! We have seen glaciers, hot springs, geysers, waterfalls, black beaches.....the list is endless. We thank you once again Laura and Baltic Travel for a once in a lifetime holiday that we will never forget.
