The Planning Struggle & Why This Guide Exists
I often hear from my followers on social media and from the hundreds of people that I have personally helped plan a trip to Iceland via my private consultations, that planning a trip to Iceland can be overwhelming.
There’s so much information out there, and it’s hard to know what’s actually useful. Should you rent a car or book tours? What’s the best time to visit? How do you budget for food, fuel, and attractions? And then there’s the weather—unpredictable, wild, and capable of changing in an instant.
I created The Savvy Traveler’s Guide to Iceland because I’ve seen firsthand how travelers struggle with these exact questions. I have been living in and traveling around Iceland for 8.5 years, and I’ve taken my experience and knowledge and distilled it into this guide so you can skip the overwhelm and enjoy creating a trip of a lifetime.
Over the years, I’ve shared tons of tips on this podcast, on my website, and through my social media, but there is still so much that I haven’t shared. Plus, I wanted to take my ability to help travelers to the next level and create a single, comprehensive resource that answers all these questions—and more.”
