Looking for an off the beaten path romance travel destination with spectacular geography? Travel to the land of fire and ice!
Go off the beaten path romance travel to Iceland on one of the Nordic islands located in the North Atlantic. Iceland is a peaceful community. The community is a modern society that places great importance on freedom and equality.
What does Iceland consist of? This island is defined by its extreme geography with magnificent landscapes consisting of lava fields, geysers, volcanoes and hot springs, As a result, Iceland is known to be home to the largest glaciers in Europe and some of the most active volcanos in the world. Iceland is also considered the “land of light and darkness.” Natives can experience about 24 hours of sunshine during the summer but also short winter days with a few hours of daylight.
We recommend pampering yourselves in the Blue Lagoon spa, a man-made lagoon fueled by geothermal energy and contains rich minerals for the skin such as sulfur and silica. Take the “Golden Circle” tour that showcases the Gullfoss Waterfall, the original Geysir, and the Thingvellir National Park. Also, let’s not forget about the famous Northern Lights during the winter! If you want to take a break from seeing all the beautiful attractions, this country contains some of the best clubs, bars, and lounges.
So for all my venturesome couples, book your flight to Iceland today! Check out this fantastic Northern Lights explanation and guide.
