An excellent tour of a fascinating country on a beautiful ship. A once in a lifetime experience!
— Review left October 8, 2024
Iceland is a starkly beautiful country, well worth a visit. Would recommend reading up a little on the history (and Sagas) of the country before visiting; it enriches the experience. By September, the birds had mostly migrated, and we saw very few whales at quite a distance away, so wildlife spotting was not really part of our experience.
The Ocean Albatross is a great ship, very comfortable and lots of amenities. Road Scholar staff and lecturers and the Ocean Albatross staff are all terrific, very friendly, amazingly organized. The lectures helped me to better understand not only the history and Sagas of Iceland, but also global volcanism and plate tectonics. I also really enjoyed getting to know my fellow travelers.
However, with buses full of Road Scholar passengers to move around, and timelines incredibly restricted, it felt very much like we were constantly being herded with no time to look around; certainly no time to talk with locals other than our local guides. We spent loads of time in lines, given that most of the stops were popular tourist attractions anyway, with other buses and boats unloading. Lastly, our 2024 itinerary put us in ports either early mornings (before anything but the bakery was open) or on a Sunday, when few things open, which was very disappointing. I see the itinerary has changed for 2025 to allow for a weekday afternoon in Reykjavík - I would have liked to experience that.

The Land of Ice and Fire didn’t disappoint.
As well as crossing into the Arctic Circle this programme offers the perfect introduction to a country that has a rich cultural and geological history. With so many opportunities to explore, from city to village to island and with input from excellent speakers, I came away inspired to learn more,
The vast Icelandic scenery is breathtaking, both stark yet beautiful, and where else can you stand with one foot on the American tectonic plate and one foot on the Eurasian plate and start to appreciate the enormity of it all.
I’d definitely recommend this trip.
— Review left October 3, 2024
Viewing puffins and seabirds was part of the advertisement for this trip. However, the puffins and most other seabirds had already migrated. This was a great disappointment to us. If we'd known this, we probably would have gone to Iceland when they were in residence. Also, we felt that there were too many museums and not enough nature. We did enjoy the things that we did, especially the glacier lagoon.

FIVE STARS This is an exceptional program. The Ocean Albatross is a beautiful and comfortable small ship and the staff and crew are friendly and professional. The scenery can't be beat. Every day offers something new and fascinating to enjoy. Volcanoes, glaciers, geysers. Oh my! Lovely group leaders, experienced local experts, great food all help to round out the experience. Everyone enjoyed the mineral bath spa. Highly recommend!!
