What to do on arrival
Keflavík Airport (KEF) is about 50 km from Reykjavík. From there explore Route 1 (the ring road), visit the Blue Lagoon, the Golden Circle (Þingvellir, Geysir, Gullfoss), waterfalls like Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, or southern glaciers. Hire a car for full freedom or book organised tours from the capital.
