Journey Overview

days 1-3

Reykjavik — Northern Lights & the Blue Lagoon

A private transfer brings you into Reykjavik, and your first night ends in a private vehicle chasing the aurora wherever it appears. The next day, a local guide walks you through the capital — the harbor, Harpa Concert Hall, Hallgrímskirkja, the old Viking house — closing with an Icelandic food tasting. Then a geothermal spa — the Blue Lagoon or Sky Lagoon — reached in private comfort. Two nights in a 1917 landmark in the heart of the city.

Húsafell — Between a Glacier and a Lava Field

A private transfer carries you west to Húsafell, wedged between a glacier and a lava field. You descend into Víðgelmir, the largest lava cave in Iceland, its subterranean tube lit with mineral color, then soak in the Húsafell Canyon Baths — geothermal pools of varying heat above a snow-filled canyon. The next day, the Silver Circle: the thundering Hraunfossar falls and Deildartunguhver, the most powerful hot spring in Europe. Two nights at a hotel averaging three aurora sightings a week.

The South Coast — Waterfalls, Black Sand, and Aurora

You cross the Golden Circle en route south — Þingvellir, the erupting Geysir, and Gullfoss thundering into its gorge. Base is Hotel Ranga, beneath Mount Hekla, with outdoor hot tubs and Iceland’s largest telescope. A Super Jeep then explores the South Coast’s local secrets: black-sand beaches, the Skógafoss and Seljalandsfoss falls, a glacier tongue, and a hidden ice cave. After dark, one last hunt for the Northern Lights. Two nights at Hotel Ranga before your morning departure.

Reflecting local hospitality through the finest amenities

Our travelers tell us that hotels are an integral part of their travel experiences. So, our staff handpicks each property for its unique character, local charm, and attention to detail. In our selection we treat comfort, location and service as “simply the basics,” so our vetting process goes well beyond that. Furthermore, our travelers tell us that they want boutique hotels. Not big, chain ones, because they want to be constantly reminded of the authenticity of the destination. Those hotels must reflect the region’s hospitality through their amenities and cultural touches. Therefore, we select hotels with the goal of making every night of your journey as remarkable as the days spent exploring.

Authentic Gratitude from SilverOpus Travelers

We Stand for More Savoring of Life

our values

Our Promise to You Rests on Four Pillars

Respect

Simply fundamental. All that we do must, first and foremost, ensure that our clients, our partners, our staff and all those who live in our destinations feel entirely respected. The land must be respected. Nature must be respected. The people must be respected. All people. Honesty, fairness, care and much more are joined in a foundation of respect for all.

Authenticity

We study our destinations to understand what characterizes its beauty and relevance. Then, we fill our programs with what is most authentic about those destinations. We showcase nature, cuisine, hospitality and cultural experiences which are most valued by locals, not what is determined by the travel industry as most sellable. It is our way to stay true to authenticity, to enrich our programs with it.

Exclusivity

Our tribe is at the heart of what we do, every day. So, we don’t attempt to appeal to all. Instead, we put our efforts into creating excellence for those who love seeing the world like our tribe does. This philosophy restricts our audience to an exclusive set of travelers, and we don’t fight that. We embrace it and give them our everything.

Happiness

We are very serious about our work, but we can’t forget why we travel. And we travel because it makes us happy, joyous. Happiness from the scenery we see, the foods we taste, the people we meet and even from the hiccups that become fun stories, later on. So, we never forget that our work, serious as it is, is here to make you happy.
