We know how to load the day's programme so that you won't be bored for a moment; but we won't promise you the whole list of the island's attractions here as that's unrealistic. We choose the most famous or unusual ones that are available that day, avoid tourist traps and try to be at the right time in the right place.
That's because in November the light is the unsung wonder of the island.

Accommodation is in double, triple or quadruple rooms, depending on the group structure/preferences and local availability.
We aim to get places in double rooms with en-suite bathrooms (although the Icelandic standard requires bathrooms in the hallway) and where this is not possible we let you know in advance.
All accommodation is clean and comfortable.
The usual level of comfort is the equivalent of 3 stars / 3 daisies.
For special requests there are upgrade options in certain areas, with the full cost of the newly chosen location borne by the applicant.
Iceland has a maritime climate and the winters are milder than you'd expect!
Temperatures can range from -5 to +10 degrees, with an average of 2-4 degrees.
The wind is present, but it is possible that snow will only be a joy along the east and north coasts of the island.
We have 12 hours of daylight (the sun rises at 8am and sets at approximately 8pm) so plenty of time to explore!
Thick hiking clothes and rainproof.
Thick, waterproof boots.
Cap and gloves, thick socks, mountain boots or as warm as possible.
You will receive an extensive list of recommendations when booking.
No, you are not obliged or allowed to drive during the tour.
Our drivers do this because road conditions are changeable and driving can sometimes be challenging.
Bear in mind, even as a passenger, that you will have to drive after dark sometimes to be able to spend more time on things that deserve longer breaks.
No, we won't miss the sights!
You can travel to Iceland with your ID card or your passport, both of which must be valid for at least three months after your return to the country.
PLEASE NOTE that any stopovers in the UK can ONLY be made with a passport (due to Brexit)!
Don't forget accident insurance, we recommend the annual Multitravel insurance from Allianz Tiriac.
We will stop at restaurants along the route, and for dinner we already have the locations set (with options).
At lunchtime we may buy supermarket produce and picnic in some special scenic spots.
Iceland is a country with strict controls on the sale of alcohol, so you will only find alcoholic drinks in restaurants, bars and a certain chain of shops. Not in petrol stations or supermarkets.

A fantastic "nature road trip", best ever for us. Perfect timing (not crowded at important attractions); tour guide is well documented/knowledgeable in the area. Definitely recommend this trip!

One of the best trips I have ever done with MaresOutdoorEvents and in 13 years I have done a lot with them.

A fantastic trip to a fascinating place from which I was hardly physically and not at all emotionally detached. The organisation was impeccable in every way, as always. Thanks for another unforgettable experience!

An excellently organised tour, with a huge experience both in adventure tourism in general and a very good knowledge of Iceland by Mihai Mares and the MOE team! Iceland between autumn and winter has a special magic, the nature is super-spectacular, and the tour around the island covers the most beautiful sights possible.
Excellent "value for money": yes, Iceland is expensive but the MOE package doesn't skimp on quality and comfort, you get an unforgettable expedition, impeccably guided. I recommend to all nature and beauty lovers, Iceland is a must!

Do you know! That holiday every 3, 5 or 7 years? (I'm a prime numbers fan). When do you disconnect from everything? From routine/work? It's like that in Iceland. Always a surprise around the corner. You just have to be curious and grateful as the English speakers say, i.e. grateful. Mareș Outdoor Events comes with the homework done. The first experience was in 2017 with 3rivers in the Balkans. In 2024 it was repeated. Iceland. Although I went to Iceland a second time, this time it was The One. It's also to go in a big group, it's something else. The good thing is that from the start the selected group of people will be orientated on the same outdoor experience values. Yes, it's light tour, but you have to be used to a programme, a routine, and solutions are found for everyone.
