An Iceland tour package from Dubai typically bundles return flights to Reykjavik (usually with one stopover, around 10 to 12 hours total), hand-picked hotels, guided sightseeing along the Golden Circle and South Coast, Blue Lagoon entry, daily breakfast and airport transfers — from AED 4,499 per person for a short Reykjavik & Golden Circle break, or AED 6,999 for the full 5-night Highlights itinerary covering the South Coast and Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon. Highlights include Þingvellir National Park, the geysers of Haukadalur, Gullfoss waterfall, Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, Reynisfjara's black sand beach, and — in winter — the Northern Lights. Most UAE residents need a Schengen visa before flying, as Iceland is part of the Schengen Area.
One island, four very different journeys — from a short Reykjavik & Golden Circle break, to the classic Highlights tour, a winter Northern Lights escape, or a grand Ring Road adventure around the whole country. Every package includes flights, hotels, transfers and guided touring, or we'll build a custom itinerary.

Iceland is a genuine year-round destination — summer brings near-endless daylight and full road access, while winter brings the Northern Lights and a snow-covered landscape.
| Season | Months | Weather | Why go |
|---|---|---|---|
| Summer | Jun – Aug | Mild 10–15°C, near-midnight sun | Best for road trips, hiking & full daylight sightseeing |
| Autumn | Sep – Oct | Cool 5–10°C | First Northern Lights sightings, quieter South Coast |
| Winter | Nov – Feb | Cold -2–3°C, short days | Peak Northern Lights season, ice caves, snowy landscapes |
| Spring | Mar – May | Mild 2–8°C | Lengthening days, waterfalls swollen with snowmelt |
Near-endless daylight makes this the prime season for the full Ring Road, hiking, and reaching every corner of the South Coast in comfort.
Dark skies and frequent clear nights make this the best window for aurora hunting, with peak activity typically around the equinoxes.
Many travellers love Iceland's deep winter — ice caves, snow-covered waterfalls, and cosy geothermal pools under the aurora.
Iceland is part of the Schengen Area through the EFTA agreement, so most nationalities living in the UAE need a Schengen visa before flying, which also allows onward travel within the wider Schengen Area during the same trip. We guide you through the exact requirements for your nationality.
Most UAE residents need a short-stay Schengen visa in advance. UAE nationals may have different requirements depending on passport type.
Flights from Dubai to Reykjavik typically take around 10 to 12 hours including a stopover. Iceland is 3 hours behind UAE time year-round (Iceland does not observe daylight saving).
Iceland uses the Icelandic Króna (ISK), not the Euro. Cards are accepted almost everywhere, including for very small purchases.
Halal options are limited outside Reykjavik, though the capital has a small but growing number of halal-friendly restaurants.
Visa rules differ by nationality and can change. Entry is at the sole discretion of Icelandic and Schengen immigration authorities. We confirm current requirements for your passport before you travel.
Mix and match these experiences into any package — just tell your consultant what you'd love to do.
