Save time, worry less, and leave the planning to an expert.

Booking the tickets to Iceland? That’s easy peasy.

But crafting the perfect itinerary?
It’s even tougher than pronouncing “Eyjafjallajökull”.

You thought planning your dream Iceland trip would be a breeze, but instead, you find yourself:

  • Struggling to figure out how to fit all the must-see sights into your limited time frame without feeling rushed or overwhelmed
  • Pulling your hair out trying to calculate drive times and estimate how long to spend at each stop
  • Worrying that you’ll make the wrong choices and end up wasting precious vacation days
  • Feeling like you need a degree in logistics just to plan a simple road trip

You’re searching for the ideal planning solution, but can’t seem to find it.

You feel like you’re forced to pick between two less-than-ideal options:

Option #1: Go The Travel Agency Route

You can spend thousands of dollars to have a travel agency plan your trip. Usually, these agencies funnel you into cookie-cutter tours, limiting your flexibility and customization all while pushing their tour partnerships over your personal preferences. 

❌ Cons: Expensive, lack of flexibility, sticks to the tourist trail instead of revealing hidden gems

Option #2: Plan everything yourself

Take planning into your own hands. This often means countless hours scouring YouTube videos, blog posts, and random travel forums in hopes of getting accurate, up-to-date information. While those travel bloggers might have some nice photos and stories to share, they’re not necessarily true Iceland experts. Never mind, getting practical details on things like gas stations, restrooms, and the best stops to break up your road trip feels next to impossible. 

❌ Cons: Time-consuming, stressful, unreliable info

Neither of these options gives you the personalized, stress-free experience you deserve.

But what if there was a better way? A way to get a meticulously crafted itinerary from a true Iceland expert without the high costs and rigidity of a travel agency?

Meet Jeannie

After falling in love with Iceland on my honeymoon back in 2014, my husband and I promptly decided to sell everything we owned and uproot our lives to call this country home. I’m a seasoned road tripper and obsessive planner who lives and breathes all things Icelandic culture. It’s my mission to help as many people as possible experience the magic of Iceland!

It was beyond helpful knowing how much you could fit into a day and how much time it took to get from one place to another! It was the Bible of the trip and my husband would ask, “What does Jeannie say?” — as far as parking, tips, etc. It was the most EPIC of trips and this itinerary aided in that!

⚠️ The Crucial Planning Factor: What Season You’re Traveling To Iceland

When it comes to planning your dream Iceland getaway, there’s one key factor that many generic travel itineraries overlook: seasonality. Imagine the disappointment of arriving at your bucket-list attraction, only to find it closed for the season, or discovering that the limited daylight hours won’t allow you to explore everything on your list.

Luckily, my Iceland itineraries are designed with seasonality in mind, so you can truly make the most of your trip.
