Experiences in Iceland

Experiences

Travel to Iceland on your own: explore the country at your own pace with accommodation and a car included.

Be social and share!

Can you imagine exploring Iceland at your own pace, without schedules or rushing, stopping wherever you want and discovering places that few people know about?
A self-guided trip to Iceland is the best way to experience the country in its purest form. When you travel to Iceland independently, driving along roads surrounded by lava, waterfalls, and mountains, sleeping in selected accommodations, and designing your own route allows you to experience a true connection with Icelandic nature and culture.

Why are you traveling to Iceland on your own?

Iceland is the perfect country for independent travelers. Its well-maintained roads, safety, and the freedom offered by renting a car make traveling to Iceland independently an accessible and enriching experience.

  • Freedom of schedules: You decide how much time to spend in each place when you travel to Iceland independently.

  • Total flexibility: If the weather changes or you fall in love with an area, you can easily adapt your plan and continue your trip to Iceland on your own.

  • Personalized experience: Each trip is unique because you tailor it to your needs, based on your tastes and preferences.

Everything organized, but without losing freedom

We know that planning a trip to Iceland on your own can seem overwhelming: dirt roads, changing weather conditions, limited accommodation options... That's why, at The Planet We take care of organizing all the details so you can enjoy your trip to Iceland on your own:

  • Rental car adapted to the itinerary (comfortable, safe vehicles suitable for each route).

  • Pre-booked accommodations in hotels, guesthouses, or cabins based on your preferences and budget.

  • Suggested and optimized route with key points, digital maps, and local recommendations, so you don't miss anything important.

What can you see when you travel to Iceland on your own?

You'll have the opportunity to visit the country's most iconic landscapes, as well as lesser-known spots, far from the crowds. With your own car and good planning, you can explore:

  • The Golden Circle, with its geysers, waterfalls and national parks full of history and nature.

  • The South Coast, famous for its glaciers, black sand beaches and waterfalls such as Skógafoss or Seljalandsfoss, ideal for impressive photos.

  • East Iceland, with its spectacular fjords and small fishing villages where you can discover the local culture.

  • The North, with geothermal phenomena, whale watching and unique volcanic landscapes.

  • The highlands, accessible in summer for the more adventurous, where wild nature awaits you without limits.

It all depends on how much time you have and what kind of travel you prefer. Iceland's beauty lies in its diversity, and traveling independently gives you the opportunity to explore it in depth.

Who is ideal for traveling to Iceland independently?

This type of trip is perfect for:

  • Couples seeking intimacy and adventure in a spectacular natural setting.

  • Groups of friends who want to set their own pace and share unique experiences.

  • Families who want a flexible and fun experience for everyone.

  • Solo travelers with an exploratory spirit who seek to connect with nature and themselves.

With this option, you'll have the independence you're looking for, along with the peace of mind of knowing that everything is under control and well-planned so your independent trip to Iceland is a success.

When is the best time to travel to Iceland independently?

  • In summer (June-August): Roads are more accessible, there's electricity almost 24 hours a day, and you can reach more places—ideal for nature lovers in the midst of activity.

  • In winter (November-March): If you're drawn to snowy landscapes, tranquility, and want to see the Northern Lights, it's also possible, although you'll need to pay more attention to the weather and plan carefully.

Each season offers very different experiences, so your choice will depend on what you're looking for from your Icelandic adventure.
