Best Time to Visit Iceland from India
Choosing the best time to visit Iceland from India helps you enjoy the best sights, avoid crowds, and save money. In winter, you can enjoy hot spring spas and see the Northern Lights. In summer, you can watch animals and explore green landscapes. When planning your Iceland trip, think about what weather you prefer. Our experts will plan your tour for either season based on what you want to see and do.
Here is a season-wise guide to help you choose the right time:
Summer Season: June to August
- Weather: Cool and Comfortable. 10°C to 15°C. It is the warmest season in Iceland. It is much cooler than Indian summers - pleasant for sightseeing.
- Crowds: Expect large crowds at popular spots. Hotels and tours must be booked several months in advance as demand is very high.
- Costs: This is the most expensive time of year. Flights, hotels, and car rentals are at their peak rates due to the demand for better weather and the Midnight Sun.
- Best For: Ideal for experiencing the Midnight Sun. All roads are open for driving. Best for whale watching and seeing the Atlantic puffins.
- Tip: Since it stays bright for most of the day, an eye mask is important for good sleep. Also, book major tours and hotels early.
Winter Season: September to April
- Weather: Cold, with temperatures between -5°C and 5°C, shorter daylight - 4–6 hours in December, and chances of snow or icy roads.
- Crowds: Few tourists, except during Christmas and New Year. Major sights are quiet, and some roads may close due to snow.
- Costs: Lowest for hotels/flights outside holidays. Off-season deals are good, though guided tours remain popular for safe travel.
- Best For: The best time to see the stunning Northern Lights is due to the long hours of darkness. Also, the only time you can safely visit the natural blue Ice Caves is within the glaciers.
- Tip: Dress warmly! Book Aurora tours and check weather updates daily. Roads may be slippery or closed, so plan accordingly.
Shoulder Season: May, September, and October
- Weather: A mix of spring and autumn. May is milder with more daylight, while October is colder with a higher chance of rain and snow. Temperatures are generally manageable - 5°C to 10°C.
- Crowds: Fewer tourists than in summer, ideal for those who like quieter trips and easy photo ops without crowds.
- Costs: Moderate; cheaper than peak summer but starting to rise for the upcoming tourist surge
- Best For: May is great for the start of the hiking and wildlife season. September/October offers the chance to see the Northern Lights without the deep winter cold or darkness.
- Tip: Roads and weather can be unpredictable, so always check conditions before driving. This season is also great for budget travellers, as it is less crowded and more affordable.

Discover the beauty of the Northern Lights.
Watching the Northern Lights is a magical experience. Iceland is one of the best places to see them because it is dark, has clean air, and is close to the Arctic. The lights appear as green, purple, pink, and red colours dancing in the sky. You can see them from September to April, best in November to February.

The iconic Blue Lagoon is a geothermal spa famous worldwide for its milky blue, mineral-rich waters. Close to Keflavík Airport, the warm water of Blue Lagoon and black lava surroundings make it a must-visit place in Iceland. The blue colour comes from silica in the water, which is good for your skin. You can use silica mud masks for free.
Imagine soaking in warm water while snow falls around you in winter, or under the midnight sun in summer. The spa has steam rooms, saunas, waterfalls, and even a bar in the water. Book this early with our Iceland tour package, as slots fill fast year-round.
Go Ice Caving and Glacier Hiking

Tips for a Hassle-Free Iceland Trip
- Book Early: Popular places like Blue Lagoon, Northern Lights tours, glacier hikes, and ice caves sell out fast, especially in summer and winter. Book 2-4 weeks ahead to get spots and sometimes save money.
- Currency: The local currency is the Icelandic Króna (ISK), but credit/debit cards are accepted everywhere, even for small purchases. Carry minimal cash.
- Wear Layers for Changing Weather: Weather changes fast. You can see sun, rain, wind, and snow all in one day. Pack thermal underwear, waterproof jackets and pants, warm fleece or wool clothing, waterproof hiking boots, a warm hat and gloves, and a windproof scarf. Wearing layers helps you adjust quickly to the weather.
- Plan for Short Winter Days: Winter days are very short around December 21st; there are only 4-5 hours of daylight. Do sightseeing during the day and look for Northern Lights at night. Summer is opposite, almost 24 hours of light in June-July, great for long trips.
- Respect Nature: The land of Iceland is fragile. Stay on marked paths and never drive off-road. Do not pick flowers, litter, or harm moss; it takes years to grow back. Respect private property and wildlife.
- Drink Tap Water: The tap water of Iceland is one of the purest in the world, from glaciers and springs. It is safe, tasty, and free - no need to buy bottled water. Just bring a reusable bottle and fill it anywhere.
- Drive Carefully: If self-driving, be extremely cautious. Roads can be icy, windy, or suddenly closed. Always check road conditions and weather forecasts before setting out. In winter, roads are icy; rent a 4WD vehicle.
- Try Icelandic Food: Taste local dishes like fresh seafood, Icelandic lamb, and rye bread baked in hot springs, Skyr (yoghurt), and hot dogs. Indian restaurants are also available in Reykjavik.
- Learn a Few Icelandic Words: Most Icelanders speak English well, but they appreciate it if you try these words: "Halló" (Hello), "Takk" (Thank you), "Góðan daginn" (Good day), and "Bless" (Goodbye). Do not worry about pronunciation!
- Be Ready for High Prices: Iceland is expensive; food, activities, hotels, and daily items cost more than in most countries. Plan your budget and book your Iceland tour packages with us that include most costs upfront.
