The Lesser-Known Westfjords and Remote East Iceland: Hidden Gems on the Voyage 

When travelers picture Iceland, it’s often the famed Golden Circle or Reykjavik’s colorful streets that come to mind. But beyond the usual highlights lie Iceland’s most soul-stirring landscapes — the Westfjords Iceland and the remote East coast, where time slows and the country’s untamed spirit shines brightest.  As part of our immersive Iceland expedition cruise, we venture where few travelers have gone before, sailing around rugged peninsulas, secluded fjords, and fishing villages that seem almost untouched by modern life.
