Iceland Travel Guide

Hallgrímskirkja, the largest church in Iceland

Iceland is a geologic wonderland, born from the volcanic activity between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.

Due to its small size, and modern infastructure, Iceland is well-suited for short visits while traveling between North America and Europe.

In spite of the economic troubles Icelanders faced in the late 2000's, the economy is recovering, and it remains as expensive a destination as other Scandinavian countries.
