What makes Akureyri a must-visit destination?

Akureyri, also known as the ‘Capital of North Iceland’ is a town inhabiting the fifth largest population of the country. It is an important trading centre and port, thanks to the Eyjafjörður Fjord and the two Arctic islands of Grimsey and Hrisey. You can visit this stunning destination with Thrillophilia’s Akureyri tour packages, and indulge in a range of thrilling activities besides sightseeing.


You can go whale watching in Grimsey, hiking in Glerardalur, and swimming in the Myvatn Nature Bath here with us. Also, you can explore the magnificent sight of the Godafoss waterfalls, also known as the ‘Waterfall of the Gods’, and the Dettifoss Waterfall which is the second most powerful one in Europe. Besides this, you can learn about the history and transformation of the country from the mediaeval ages to the modern times in the Akureyri Museum, and immerse yourself in the artistic scenario of the country by visiting the Akureyri Art Museum. Additionally, the Akureyri Motorcycle Museum can tell you a lot of stories regarding the evolution of bikes in Iceland over the years.


If you are visiting this place during the winter season, you can treat yourself to a wonderful skiing activity at the Hlidarfjall Resort with Thrillophilia. Wait patiently to witness the spectacular Northern Lights, try horseback riding in the vast grasslands, and set out on an exciting journey through the Valley of Glerardalur with us.

I enjoyed traveling through scenic routes, stopping at peaceful spots, and taking in the open landscapes. It’s ideal for travelers who love calm surroundings and outdoor experiences.

Our Iceland trip from Gurgaon wasn’t just about sightseeing. What stayed with me was how simple and peaceful daily life felt there less noise, less chaos. The calm surroundings and natural beauty made me slow down and truly enjoy the moment. It also made me reflect on how fast-paced life is back home.

Indore se Iceland trip ekdum yaadgaar raha. Waterfalls, glaciers aur wide landscapes ke beech rehna ek alag hi experience tha. Nature ko itna close se dekhna kaafi unique laga. Har din naye scenic views mile, aur poora trip peaceful aur refreshing feel hua. Definitely worth visiting once.
