ence all that it has to offer. Iceland’s capital city, Reykjavik, is a city where you’ll feel safe to walk the streets.

However, this “village” has a multitude of cultural venues, gourmet restau-rants, stores and is only a 15-minute cab ride from the downtown area to the Iceland country-side. Here you can explore the wild nature, geysers, waterfalls, geothermal hot springs, bird sanctuaries and even more.For centuries Icelanders have relaxed in the soothing, natural hot geothermal springs found all over the country. To enjoy the full experi-ence, come soak at the Blue Lagoon, Iceland’s world-famous spa that combines the purity of our water with the natural curative properties

of our volcanic landscape.The waters surrounding Iceland and flowing through it are home to a range of whales and dolphins, while the hills and mountains are home to arctic fox and reindeer herds. Iceland is also home to the largest population of puffins in the world and devoted birdwatchers flock to our shores to see dozens of rare species up close.Further details about summer flights via Keflavik International Aiport can be found at www.kefairport.is/English
