Travel Tips for People in Iceland

Iceland
When you visit Iceland you should split your trip. Spend some days in Reykjavik to meet Icelandic people! After that you might rent a car and explore the wonderful rough nature of Iceland!

To see the northern lights, dont pay an expensive bus trip, take you car, sit near one of the hotels and follow the bus, the drivers know where the best spots to see them are, and you can drive on about 200 metres and get away from the crowd, noise light (and people thinking they can take a photo of the northern lights with a flash!)
