Iceland Itineraries: From 1 Weekend to 1 Month (Updated 2025)

"I visited the Whale Museum in Húsavík to learn about whaling’s historical role in Iceland and to see a full blue whale skeleton — the museum is informative about whales, their habitat, and their impact on the country, and it offers varying seasonal hours." - Matthew Kepnes
