How to reach Iceland
Traveling to Iceland by Air
The best way to reach all the way up north to Iceland is by air. Even though the country isn’t a part of the European Union, it is a member of the Schengen Agreement, which is the visa you’ll require to enter. Once you have that sorted, it’s all about choosing the most convenient airline and route available so that you can make the long journey to Iceland in the most comfortable way possible.

Most international flights to Iceland arrive at the Keflavik International Airport located about 40 km away from the capital city of Reykjavík. There aren’t any direct flights from India, but connecting flights from many European cities are offered by a host of airlines, including Iceland Air, Easy Jet, Etihad, Emirates, Lufthansa, Air India, Turkish Airlines, Finn Air and British Airways. These flights can sell out quickly, especially during peak travel season, so it is best to check for availability and book in advance. Upon arrival, there are shuttle bus services that can be availed to reach the Reykjavík Bus Terminal, as well as public buses and taxis for hire.

Travelling to Iceland by Sea
The best way to reach Iceland is by ferry through the vast North Atlantic Ocean. The boat runs throughout the year, departing from Denmark and sailing for two nights before arriving at Seyðisfjörður on the east coast of Iceland, via Torshavn in the Faroe Islands.

The boats, operated by Smyril Line, provides spacious living cabins, an incredible open-air deck, gourmet food and drink, a host of services including fitness facilities, a shopping arcade, and cinema.

Best time to Visit Iceland
Winter (December - February)
If you are planning to visit Iceland in winter (but not as cold as you would think), the temperature is moderate. You will see a blanket of snow and there is a high probability of seeing the northern lights. During the winter months, the days are shorter and the nights are longer. This is great for those on the hunt for the northern lights, and provides a ‘golden hour’ effect for the whole time the sun is in the sky.

Spring (March - May)
If you are wondering what is the best time to visit Iceland, spring might just be the answer. And during spring the days are longer so the snow starts to melt revealing Iceland’s lush green landscape for the first time every year. We can say that spring is shoulder season when prices are lower and you will not find crowds during these months. But for that advantage, expect rain, wind and the infrequent sunny light with moderate temperatures.

Summer (June - August)
Summer is definitely the peak season to visit Iceland. The weather during these months is mild (for an Arctic Circle country), heaps of attractions are open and accessible – and prices soar as tourist season gets into full swing and people visit in droves. Summer (June, July and August) is easily the most ideal time of year to visit Iceland as it boasts 21+ hours of daylight which makes it a perfect destination for travelers.

Autumn (September - November)
The National parks are bathed in red, orange and yellow interspersed with patches of green moss across the lava field that is most vibrant just before the snow arrives. There is still enough sunlight for most summer activities, however, temperatures are cooler and the crowd is less as compared to other months, with lower costs.
