We chose the easier option: we flew with <strong>Lufthansa<\/strong> on the Bucharest-Vienna-Reykjavik route on August 10 and Reykjavik-Munich-Bucharest on the return trip on August 19. I landed in Iceland on a Friday night close to midnight local time, and I got back home the following Sunday around noon, so I stayed for a total of 8 full days.<br><br>This option is a little more expensive, but less hassle and more comfortable, as it involves a scheduled flight where you buy the entire segment without having to worry about stopovers or going through security again. The lower-cost option is with Wizz Air via Budapest or Bergamo and from there to Reykjavik. At the time (I bought the tickets 8 months before the holiday), the prices and times were similar, so I chose the comfort of Lufthansa.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery .kb-gallery-type-grid.kb-gallery-id-2488_ced46b-e5{margin:-7.5px;}.kb-gallery-type-grid.kb-gallery-id-2488_ced46b-e5 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item{padding:7.5px;}.kb-gallery-id-2488_ced46b-e5 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_ced46b-e5 .kb-slide-item .kb-gal-image-radius img{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery.kb-gallery-wrap-id-2488_ced46b-e5{overflow:visible;}.kb-gallery-id-2488_ced46b-e5 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_ced46b-e5 .kadence-blocks-gallery-thumb-item .kb-gal-image-radius{box-shadow:4px 2px 14px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);}.kb-gallery-id-2488_ced46b-e5 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item:hover .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_ced46b-e5 .kadence-blocks-gallery-thumb-item:hover .kb-gal-image-radius{box-shadow:4px 2px 14px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);}<\/style><div class=\"kb-gallery-wrap-id-2488_ced46b-e5 alignnone wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery\"><ul class=\"kb-gallery-ul kb-gallery-non-static kb-gallery-type-grid kb-gallery-id-2488_ced46b-e5 kb-gallery-caption-style-bottom-hover kb-gallery-filter-none\" data-image-filter=\"none\" data-item-selector=\".kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" data-lightbox-caption=\"true\" data-columns-xxl=\"2\" data-columns-xl=\"2\" data-columns-md=\"2\" data-columns-sm=\"2\" data-columns-xs=\"1\" data-columns-ss=\"1\"><li class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\" style=\"max-width:768px;\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic kb-gallery-image-ratio-inherit kb-has-image-ratio-inherit\" style=\"padding-bottom:133%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2547-768x1024.webp\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Islanda cu campervan\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2547.webp\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2547.webp\" data-id=\"2555\" class=\"wp-image-2555\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2547-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2547-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2547-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2547-9x12.webp 9w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2547.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/li><li class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\" style=\"max-width:768px;\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic kb-gallery-image-ratio-inherit kb-has-image-ratio-inherit\" style=\"padding-bottom:133%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9787-768x1024.webp\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9787.webp\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9787.webp\" data-id=\"2556\" class=\"wp-image-2556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9787-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9787-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9787-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9787-9x12.webp 9w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9787.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Accommodation for one night in Keflavik<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Because we arrived very late in the evening, we had to spend the night at a hotel in Keflavik (the town where the airport is located and where the campervan rental center was). We didn't have many options, so we chose a studio in a guesthouse, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/is\/bergas-guesthouse.en-us.html?aid=818288&amp;label=affnetcj-11916287_pub-5108952_site-101299129_pname-Go%20Travel%20Un%20Limited_clkid-9811e520178e40f4a4d6276b4-585684_cjevent-a285fe2a6c9e11f082cd009d0a18b8f6&amp;sid=63fde6e399aaeeb0ba37fbf53739aa15&amp;dest_id=1333674&amp;dest_type=hotel&amp;dist=0&amp;group_adults=2&amp;group_children=0&amp;hapos=1&amp;hpos=1&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;req_adults=2&amp;req_children=0&amp;room1=A%2CA&amp;sb_price_type=total&amp;sr_order=popularity&amp;srepoch=1753808946&amp;srpvid=ed2178961bfe0496&amp;type=total&amp;ucfs=1&amp;#hotelTmpl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Blue Viking Studios<\/a><\/strong>, for which we paid approximately 158 euros\/night\/room with breakfast included. We took a taxi from the airport to the guesthouse (it was the only option in the middle of the night) and paid approximately 25 euros for a 5-minute ride. The guesthouse was very acceptable, but the breakfast left something to be desired. At least we walked 30 minutes from the accommodation to the rental center and saved some money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">E-sim card<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When we went, in 2024, we needed to get an e-SIM for data, and our partner for travel outside the European Union is <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/airalo.tp.st\/5nKXzVc7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Airalo<\/a><\/strong>. It seems that from 2025, the country has entered into a program called <em>\u201eRoam Like at Home\u201d<\/em> where calls, texts, and data in Iceland are billed at home rates, with no extra charges unless you go over the limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Renting the campervan<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We monitored the prices of several companies for 6 months, such as: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gocampers.is\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GoCampers<\/a>,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gocampers.is\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Indie Campers<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.campervaniceland.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Campervan Iceland<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/happycampers.is\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Happy Campers<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kukucampers.is\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">KukuCampers<\/a>. Drawing a line at the end and noticing that they had roughly the same cars and facilities, the winner was, of course, the one with a budget campervan, i.e. <strong>GoCampers<\/strong>. (The first time in Iceland is on a budget, the second time the amount allocated for more comfortable accommodation increases \u2013 compromises \ud83d\ude02)<br><br>We did not regret choosing GoCampers at all, because it seemed just right for our needs, as two adults accustomed to camping with only the bare essentials. We chose a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gocampers.is\/campers\/two-plus-sleeping-spots\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Go Smart Budget Camper &#8211; Dacia Docker<\/a>, with a mattress with two sleeping places, all kitchen utensils included, especially two gas bottles and a burner for cooking food, two chairs and a camping table, a 10L water container, two sleeping bags, two pillows, two duvets, but no heating source.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery .kb-gallery-type-grid.kb-gallery-id-2488_19c442-49{margin:-7.5px;}.kb-gallery-type-grid.kb-gallery-id-2488_19c442-49 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item{padding:7.5px;}.kb-gallery-id-2488_19c442-49 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_19c442-49 .kb-slide-item .kb-gal-image-radius img{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery.kb-gallery-wrap-id-2488_19c442-49{overflow:visible;}.kb-gallery-id-2488_19c442-49 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_19c442-49 .kadence-blocks-gallery-thumb-item .kb-gal-image-radius{box-shadow:4px 2px 14px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);}.kb-gallery-id-2488_19c442-49 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item:hover .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_19c442-49 .kadence-blocks-gallery-thumb-item:hover .kb-gal-image-radius{box-shadow:4px 2px 14px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);}<\/style><div class=\"kb-gallery-wrap-id-2488_19c442-49 alignnone wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery\"><ul class=\"kb-gallery-ul kb-gallery-non-static kb-gallery-type-grid kb-gallery-id-2488_19c442-49 kb-gallery-caption-style-bottom-hover kb-gallery-filter-none\" data-image-filter=\"none\" data-item-selector=\".kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" data-lightbox-caption=\"true\" data-columns-xxl=\"2\" data-columns-xl=\"2\" data-columns-md=\"2\" data-columns-sm=\"2\" data-columns-xs=\"1\" data-columns-ss=\"1\"><li class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\" style=\"max-width:768px;\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic kb-gallery-image-ratio-inherit kb-has-image-ratio-inherit\" style=\"padding-bottom:133%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9816-1-768x1024.webp\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Islanda cu campervan\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9816-1.webp\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9816-1.webp\" data-id=\"2570\" class=\"wp-image-2570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9816-1-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9816-1-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9816-1-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9816-1-9x12.webp 9w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_9816-1.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/li><li class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\" style=\"max-width:768px;\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic kb-gallery-image-ratio-inherit kb-has-image-ratio-inherit\" style=\"padding-bottom:133%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2139-768x1024.webp\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Islanda cu campervan\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2139.webp\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2139.webp\" data-id=\"2571\" class=\"wp-image-2571\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2139-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2139-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2139-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2139-9x12.webp 9w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_2139.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What was really cool was that, at the rental center, people who had vans left behind non-perishable items they didn't use so that others who were about to enjoy Iceland in a van could take them. It's a kind of Sharing is Caring and you also reduce costs; for example, we took coffee, pasta, granola, a bottle of oil, and a jar of peanut butter from there.<br><br>We really liked the car, and there was only one night out of the seven when it felt really cold. We have a trick that we used and it worked: we brought bottles from home (the water in Iceland is drinkable anyway) and in the evening we heated water and poured it into the bottles. We put them in our sleeping bags and this warmed up the air in the sleeping bags and it wasn't so cold anymore.<br><br>As an idea, I rented it six months before the trip and the price was \u20ac1,400 for eight nights with full insurance included. By the way, the wind here is very strong and there is no insurance for damage caused, so hold on tight to the doors. And if you hit a sheep, the fine is very high and there is no insurance for such accidents.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery .kb-gallery-type-grid.kb-gallery-id-2488_117b38-6e{margin:-7.5px;}.kb-gallery-type-grid.kb-gallery-id-2488_117b38-6e .kadence-blocks-gallery-item{padding:7.5px;}.kb-gallery-id-2488_117b38-6e .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_117b38-6e .kb-slide-item .kb-gal-image-radius img{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery.kb-gallery-wrap-id-2488_117b38-6e{overflow:visible;}.kb-gallery-id-2488_117b38-6e .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_117b38-6e .kadence-blocks-gallery-thumb-item .kb-gal-image-radius{box-shadow:4px 2px 14px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);}.kb-gallery-id-2488_117b38-6e .kadence-blocks-gallery-item:hover .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_117b38-6e .kadence-blocks-gallery-thumb-item:hover .kb-gal-image-radius{box-shadow:4px 2px 14px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);}<\/style><div class=\"kb-gallery-wrap-id-2488_117b38-6e alignnone wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery\"><ul class=\"kb-gallery-ul kb-gallery-non-static kb-gallery-type-grid kb-gallery-id-2488_117b38-6e kb-gallery-caption-style-bottom-hover kb-gallery-filter-none\" data-image-filter=\"none\" data-item-selector=\".kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" data-lightbox-caption=\"true\" data-columns-xxl=\"2\" data-columns-xl=\"2\" data-columns-md=\"2\" data-columns-sm=\"2\" data-columns-xs=\"1\" data-columns-ss=\"1\"><li class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\" style=\"max-width:768px;\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic kb-gallery-image-ratio-inherit kb-has-image-ratio-inherit\" style=\"padding-bottom:133%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_0226-768x1024.webp\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Islanda cu campervan\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_0226.webp\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_0226.webp\" data-id=\"2572\" class=\"wp-image-2572\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_0226-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_0226-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_0226-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_0226-9x12.webp 9w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_0226.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/li><li class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\" style=\"max-width:768px;\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic kb-gallery-image-ratio-inherit kb-has-image-ratio-inherit\" style=\"padding-bottom:133%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1941-768x1024.webp\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Islanda cu campervan\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1941.webp\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1941.webp\" data-id=\"2573\" class=\"wp-image-2573\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1941-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1941-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1941-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1941-9x12.webp 9w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1941.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Everything about food<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We all know that food in Iceland is extremely expensive, among the most expensive in Europe. This is because everything is imported, the soil is not very friendly to agriculture, and apart from the large number of sheep and wild horses, not much else grows there. So, for us, the only solution was to shop for food very carefully. Most people traveling in campervans ate food from the supermarket that they cooked outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an idea, for the 9 days we spent there, we spent about 260 euros on groceries. And we found the best prices at large supermarkets, such as <strong>Kr\u00f3nan<\/strong> and <strong>B\u00f3nus<\/strong>. I recommend buying as much as you can in Reykjav\u00edk because prices are better there and because, if you travel around the island, it will be much harder to find shops. Another option is Akureyri, the largest city in the north of the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We ate very simply, such as yogurt with oats and bananas, their extremely dense bread with peanut butter and jam, lots of packet soups, lots of semi-prepared noodles or pasta with sauce. But food didn't matter when the view was either of a waterfall or a lagoon with glaciers. As I said above: the first visit to Iceland is on a tight budget, on the second one we might go to a restaurant once. :))<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery .kb-gallery-type-grid.kb-gallery-id-2488_d0fb66-e7{margin:-7.5px;}.kb-gallery-type-grid.kb-gallery-id-2488_d0fb66-e7 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item{padding:7.5px;}.kb-gallery-id-2488_d0fb66-e7 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_d0fb66-e7 .kb-slide-item .kb-gal-image-radius img{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery.kb-gallery-wrap-id-2488_d0fb66-e7{overflow:visible;}.kb-gallery-id-2488_d0fb66-e7 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_d0fb66-e7 .kadence-blocks-gallery-thumb-item .kb-gal-image-radius{box-shadow:4px 2px 14px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);}.kb-gallery-id-2488_d0fb66-e7 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item:hover .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_d0fb66-e7 .kadence-blocks-gallery-thumb-item:hover .kb-gal-image-radius{box-shadow:4px 2px 14px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);}<\/style><div class=\"kb-gallery-wrap-id-2488_d0fb66-e7 alignnone wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery\"><ul class=\"kb-gallery-ul kb-gallery-non-static kb-gallery-type-grid kb-gallery-id-2488_d0fb66-e7 kb-gallery-caption-style-bottom-hover kb-gallery-filter-none\" data-image-filter=\"none\" data-item-selector=\".kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" data-lightbox-caption=\"true\" data-columns-xxl=\"2\" data-columns-xl=\"2\" data-columns-md=\"2\" data-columns-sm=\"2\" data-columns-xs=\"1\" data-columns-ss=\"1\"><li class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic kb-gallery-image-ratio-square kb-has-image-ratio-square\" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-15-768x1024.webp\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Mesele noastre din Islanda\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-15.webp\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-15.webp\" data-id=\"2762\" class=\"wp-image-2762\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-15-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-15-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-15-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-15-9x12.webp 9w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-15.webp 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/li><li class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic kb-gallery-image-ratio-square kb-has-image-ratio-square\" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-3-768x1024.webp\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Mesele noastre din Islanda\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-3.webp\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-3.webp\" data-id=\"2763\" class=\"wp-image-2763\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-3-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-3-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-3-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-3-9x12.webp 9w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-08-19-at-15.14.52-3.webp 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About puffins and seals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, in Iceland you can see both puffins and seals during the summer, but it's a pretty short season. And if you choose to visit them on your own, you have to be quiet, not get too excited around them, stay at a reasonable distance, and enjoy the opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best season to watch the <strong>puffins <\/strong>is between may and august, and the peak is between <strong>june-july<\/strong> when they lay their eggs and care for their chicks. We arrived in mid-August and they were already gone. The best places to admire them are: Dyrh\u00f3laey, Reynisfjara, Borgarfjar\u00f0arh\u00f6fn, the L\u00e1trabjarg Peninsula (western fjords), Heimaey \u2013 the Westman Islands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The seals <\/strong>can be seen all year round, but during the summer, between May and September, they spend more time on beaches or sandbanks. We saw them best in this place \u2013 Illugastadir \u2013 in the evening, after sunset. The place is not very well known because the access road is not paved and is about 20 minutes from the main road. We also stayed at the campsite there, which is why we were able to stay after 9-10 p.m. without any problems and watch them. But other places to see seals would be: J\u00f6kuls\u00e1rl\u00f3n Glacier Lagoon, Westfjords, Ytri-Tunga<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery .kb-gallery-type-grid.kb-gallery-id-2488_c47ca1-06{margin:-7.5px;}.kb-gallery-type-grid.kb-gallery-id-2488_c47ca1-06 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item{padding:7.5px;}.kb-gallery-id-2488_c47ca1-06 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_c47ca1-06 .kb-slide-item .kb-gal-image-radius img{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery.kb-gallery-wrap-id-2488_c47ca1-06{overflow:visible;}.kb-gallery-id-2488_c47ca1-06 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_c47ca1-06 .kadence-blocks-gallery-thumb-item .kb-gal-image-radius{box-shadow:4px 2px 14px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);}.kb-gallery-id-2488_c47ca1-06 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item:hover .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-2488_c47ca1-06 .kadence-blocks-gallery-thumb-item:hover .kb-gal-image-radius{box-shadow:4px 2px 14px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);}<\/style><div class=\"kb-gallery-wrap-id-2488_c47ca1-06 alignnone wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery\"><ul class=\"kb-gallery-ul kb-gallery-non-static kb-gallery-type-grid kb-gallery-id-2488_c47ca1-06 kb-gallery-caption-style-bottom-hover kb-gallery-filter-none\" data-image-filter=\"none\" data-item-selector=\".kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" data-lightbox-caption=\"true\" data-columns-xxl=\"2\" data-columns-xl=\"2\" data-columns-md=\"2\" data-columns-sm=\"2\" data-columns-xs=\"1\" data-columns-ss=\"1\"><li class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic kb-gallery-image-ratio-square kb-has-image-ratio-square\" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG_1817-768x1024.webp\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG_1817.webp\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG_1817.webp\" data-id=\"2919\" class=\"wp-image-2919\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG_1817-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG_1817-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG_1817-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG_1817-9x12.webp 9w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMG_1817.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/li><li class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic kb-gallery-image-ratio-square kb-has-image-ratio-square\" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1122-768x1024.webp\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"pufini\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1122.webp\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1122.webp\" data-id=\"2971\" class=\"wp-image-2971\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1122-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1122-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1122-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1122-9x12.webp 9w, https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_1122.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The map with our itinerary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I thought I would leave the map of our route below, showing the places we visited and the campsites where we stayed, but I invite you to visit this <a href=\"https:\/\/traveltaleswithioana.com\/en\/complete-itinerary-for-iceland-8-days\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>link<\/strong><\/a>, where I have detailed each day and each activity we tried in much greater detail.
