Reykjavík in $490s-$620s RT

If you're anything like me, Iceland has been calling your name for ages—glowing ice caves lit in ultramarine light, steamy dips in the Blue Lagoon, and long nights where the aurora dances like no one is watching.

Honestly, I'd hop on a plane just for the chance to see even a handful of the 10,000 waterfalls scattered across the countryside. Arriving as spring takes hold also means you’ll catch them at their most dramatic—roaring with snowmelt and wrapped in cool mist.

And that’s before you even get to the wild stuff: the mind-bending geometric basalt cliffs, the folklore-filled lava fields, and those massive stone trolls frozen in place will make you wonder when you left Earth :-)
