Travel East Iceland

- Hiking Tours - Hiking

Since 2011, at Travel East Iceland, we have developed an expertise in off-the-beaten-path discovery and a passion for sharing our discoveries with like-minded travellers.  

The Travel East Iceland team consists of expert travel leaders with decades of experience creating hiking, nature and adventure itineraries in Iceland. We are continuously evolving and innovating to offer unique guided vacations in Iceland’s best places. Our experienced local guides are knowledgeable about all things Iceland and have your safety, comfort, and experience at heart.  

Our expeditions throughout East Iceland and beyond will lead you along seldom-travelled trails surrounded by glaciers, past roving herds of woolly sheep, around impossibly green moss and graceful waterfalls.  

Iceland’s nature is only as beautiful as how we treat her. We are committed to protecting Iceland’s fragile environment and work exclusively with local guides and suppliers. Our itineraries showcase Iceland’s lesser visited destinations and nature sites.  

We invite you to explore the road less travelled with us in East Iceland. Personalized service, expert advice and unforgettable adventures… that’s our promise to you.
