Iceland may be expensive but worth every penny and certainly not something a lot of people do.

If you are on your own I would certaily recommend booking a package. Takes all the worries out of the trip with everything organised, certainly transport and hotel. Try online first and then go to a local travel agent. Enjoy!

Do it. Only 40 once If everyone gives you money towards it, would be brilliant. I don't know you but I'm sure you deserve it
