Iceland & Greenland 2007
On top of the world! It is strange that, geologically speaking, Iceland is the youngest country in the world, and Greenland is the oldest.

Iceland is still evolving in an energy that bursts out in high geysirs and slow-moving glaciers while Greenland, the largest island in the world, has the oldest rocks ever recorded, some 3,700 million years.

Iceland lies 800km northwest of Scotland, 970km west of Norway and its northern coast is just below the Arctic Circle.  

It's a naturally beautiful land of fjords, vast uninhabited spaces, glaciers, volcanic mountainscapes, waterfalls and an abundant wildlife. In summer the sun shines at midnight; in winter the Northern Lights dance in the sky. Truely a must see experience and only a short flight from Scandinavia. 

Iceland's capital Reykjavik is an exciting city which throbs with life, by day and by night. The shopping is tax free, there are art museums, several theatres, an opera house, a symphony orchestra and fabulous restaurants serving seafood, highland lamb, and game.

In Iceland your activities may include skiing, ice-fishing, snowmobile rides on a glacier, as well as visits to spectacular natural wonders. Order the Bentours Scandinavia Brochure for tours to Iceland and Greenland or see the featured tours below.
