    Iceland has been on my bucket list for years, so I was thrilled to spend Christmas in Iceland! I was debating whether to visit during the summer or winter, but the potential to see the Northern Lights ultimately made me decide to visit in the winter.
    I made an Iceland travel vlog with some wonderful options and top things to do:
    1. Visit with the Icelandic Horses
    2. Drive the Golden Circle
    3. Kerid Crater Lake
    4. Gulfoss Waterfall
    5. Geysir
    6. Northern Lights Tour with Special Tours

    9. Skógafoss waterfall
    10. Sólheimajökull glacier hike

    Came across doing research for what to expect to see Iceland in January. Really nice video covering a lot of the sites we plan to visit when we go this January. Thank you.

    Only thing which attracts me to Iceland is Northern Lights and I heard very nice and warm people. Thank you for the video and wow you are so pretty in that blue lagoon

      Iceland is a definite bucket list item. While this video gave some great information, the "star" is guilty of what many vloggers do on CZcams, I want to see the scenery and the landscape, but she is so busy videoing herself so we only get to see the location on the periphery of the screen. Stop recording so much of yourself and record around you more. I want to see the black sand beach, not just your face and giant hood.

      @Eaccannon Před 6 lety

      Very windy! Gusts up to 25km. But we were lucky enough to fly our drone for 10 minutes! Not too cold (30-40 degrees). Almost scary warm with the humidity. I feel like we lucked out with the weather. Not too bad overall. We had a blast!

    This was excellent. Delta used to have an extended stopover in Iceland on flights from the U.S. to Europe for the same fare as a direct to Heathrow and Schiphol (and others I'm sure). Great marketing campaign I never took advantage of because I always had multiple stops in Europe as is. Now it's no longer an option. 😬 Major travel regret. Really enjoyed this video. Well done. 👍

    • @stuartbrazell
      @stuartbrazell  Před 6 lety

      Yes I've noticed they are doing away we the stopover! Thanks so much for watching!

    Hi, I am looking to go between 12/28/18 and 01/06/19, but am hesitant of the cold, and even more so the lack of daylight. What do people do once sun sets? Do you know of any outdoor activities to check out at dark besides northern lights?

    • @stuartbrazell
      @stuartbrazell  Před 5 lety

      Not that much to do but enjoy cozy bars and restaurants or a hot tub

      you should visit the island of flowers because it is full of flowers all year long and the island of sao miguel has beautiful lakes and both islands are very green and have an average temperature of between 20 and 25 degrees the whole year and the food is the best of portugal, will see on google

  • @andyantonioap
    @andyantonioap Před 4 lety

    Food is amazing?? THERE'S NOTHING ON THE PLATE. For such a cold country, you need full regular, hearty meal. None of that minimalist French cuisine my dear which is also popular in London unfortunately where im from. Just saying...
