While we are still navigating safe COVID-19 travel, it may seem like it’s easier to stay locally and explore the UK. But in fact, there are many fantastic COVID-19 travel safe destinations that feel like a world away where you can slow down, unplug and reconnect to the food, culture, scenery and people of a new destination.

Iceland

A short three-hour flight will transport you to some of Earth’s most dramatic scenery in Iceland, ‘the land of fire and ice’. Volcanoes, scorching thermal springs, black sand beaches, thundering waterfalls and glittering glaciers await those who book luxury Iceland holidays. And don’t forget about the magical natural phenomenon of the Northern Lights that dance across the night sky in the winter months. A visit to Iceland will leave you marvelling at the power of mother nature.

In the capital, Reykjavik, sample locally caught langoustine, explore the trendy shops and unique architecture, or catch some local bands at the lively bars and festivals.

Using advice from local experts, we can help you plan an unforgettable trip to this captivating country that will feel like you’ve arrived on another planet.
