A world of natural wonder awaits on a luxurious six-night Iceland expedition round-trip Reykjavík to witness the 2026 total solar eclipse. After cruising through the path of totality, enjoy unobstructed views of the moon’s shadow blocking the sun — a celestial phenomenon like no other. In the company of experts, learn more about this seldom-seen marvel on a journey that includes immersive excursions to this Nordic nation’s most thrilling sites.
Our exclusively chartered expedition ship offers world-class comfort as you cruise amid pristine fjords and glaciers to centuries-old fishing towns, remote island coastlines and black sand beaches. Other highlights include close encounters with puffins and Arctic terns on the island of Flatey, a Snæfellsnes Peninsula boat ride to taste Icelandic sushi, and a geothermal spa experience at Krauma, fed by Europe’s most powerful hot spring.
