Just Back: Iceland (interview)
Ice on black volcanic sand at Diamond Beach, Iceland
Iceland is an incredible destination any time of the year, including during the winter. The founder of Artisans of Leisure, Ashley Isaacs Ganz, recently returned from a private tour of Iceland with her family. Their trip was similar to our Essence of Iceland tour, which includes favorite experiences such as soaking in geothermal hot springs, seeing icebergs, a 4WD tour on top of a glacier, exploring ice caves, seeing black sand beaches and incredible rock formations, and enjoying the great dining and cultural highlights in Reykjavik.
Read more about Iceland and Ashley’s favorite experiences in this interview with Ashley.
Our private Iceland tours are great year-round, including activities such as hiking in the summer and hunting for the aurora borealis (Northern Lights) in the winter.
