Iceland is known as the “land of fire and ice”. On a recent holiday there, we opted for a self-guided 10-day exploration to delve deeper into the country at our own pace.

News of a recent volcanic eruption and an airport staff strike greeted us upon arrival, but luckily, these events had minimal impact on our trip.
