It’s beautiful and a great respite for a long weekend. Also, Vikings feast on tourist blood at Thanksgiving.

not sure about at Thanksgiving but just got back from a hiking trip in Iceland (one week, two days based out of Reykjavik) and it was awesome.

Days are really short that time of year, so if you’re cool with 5 hrs of sunlight and 40* go for it

Also rent a car and drive around the country if you have time Reykjavik is tiny and can be done in 1-2 days

Also, any tips for the best way to split the time? Here’s what I’m thinking so far:
