10 things you can´t do as a tourist in Iceland – Expert advise from your Iceland DMC

Iceland is a land of many wonders and endless possibilities of fun! Some of the most memorable moments happen when you head off the beaten track and try things that few have done before. This is where your Iceland DMC´s expertise  come in a good use for your groups incentive program in Iceland. This list is meant to give you a glimpse into the endless possibilities and adventures that await your incentive group on the island in the North Atlantic sea. We welcome you to Iceland;

Drive a buggy on Eyjafjallajökull

Do you remember the volcano that nobody could pronounce the name of? Eyjafjallajökull is the volcano that erupted in 2010 and became world famous for stopping air traffic all over Europe.  Luckily the eruption has stopped and that gives us the opportunity to explore this territory in Buggy cars. How thrilling! Up to 28 pax.

Rescue programme with lunch like the rescue squad

In Iceland we have a lot of brave men and women who donate their time to rescue others from dangerous situations. These rescue squads are highly trained and they have equipment to deal with the most unbelieveble conditions. We would like to send you to the mountains to participate in a simulation avalanche rescue programme which will give you a chance to test your searching abilities and try the techniques the squad uses. Afterwards you can enjoy a lunch in a mountain hut. This could also be the perfect CSR activity! Up to 30 pax.

Cocktail at the house of a Nobel prize winner

Halldór Laxness recieved the Nobel prize of Literature in 1955. He was famous for hosting wonderful parties and entertaining royalties and presidents at his house called Gljúfrasteinn in Laxnes, just outside Reykjavik. After his passing the house was left unchanged and now you have the opportunity to host a cocktail party there. Up to 25 pax.

 

Private concert with an upcoming band at their own rehearsal space

Iceland has spawned a lot of good musicians over the years, some of them world famous such as Björk, Sigurrós and Of Monsters and Men. The music scene is vibrant and there are always new talents being discovered. We would like to give you the chance to meet an upcoming band for a private concert at their own rehearsal space.

Floating under the northern lights

This experience will bring you to a state of total relaxation!

Up to 25 pax.

Bathing on a reef in the middle of sea

 We take a helicopter to a secret place where, when the tide is right, a hot natural pool appears on a reef in the middle of the ocean. Here you will have the chance to bathe and feel as if you were the only man in the world except for the seals swimming by. Up to 4 pax.

Team building Activity
