When I decided that I wanted to go to Iceland, I knew I wanted to do a tour around the Golden Circle. Simply put, the Golden Circle is a popular tourist route in southern Iceland that features Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss, and Geysir. Most tours were 8 hours, so I knew it would be a long day. Originally I was going to do a tour that included a couple of hours of Icelandic horseback riding, but at the last minute, I decided against it. I haven't ridden a horse since I was 9, right ...

A NiceTravel Tour Review: A Day Trip Around the Golden Circle
Icelandic Architecture: Those Cute Colorful Houses
The view from the top of Hallgrímskirkja! To be honest, I did minimal research about Iceland before I went. I figured out a few things that I really wanted to do (Blue Lagoon, Golden Circle, etc.) but I didn't do a whole lot of research into the culture (and certainly not the language, sorry, Icelanders). But one thing I did see in my Googling around before the trip were websites that had photos of the architecture and that Reykjavik was known for having super cute colorful little ... VIEW POST
Airline Review: Iceland Air
When I booked my flight to Iceland in early May (I should've booked it in April, to be honest), I was looking forward to booking on IcelandAir. I thought, for some reason, that it was THE airline to fly to Iceland with, and that it was super nice. WELL. When I got to Terminal B at JFK Airport three hours early, I started wondering: will there be a meal on this five and a half hour flight? There surely must be. Right? RIGHT? So, I looked for reviews on TripAdvisor and I was horrified at the ... VIEW POST

A Review of Iceland’s First Cat Cafe
Would I be a good travel blogger if I didn't write a review of Iceland's first cat cafe? No, I wouldn't. When you need a break-in from going on group tours and from all the many museums in Reykjavik, you should get yourself to Bergstaðastræti Street over to Kattakaffihusid! Unlike a lot of the other cat cafes that I've been to while traveling, these adorable fluffs are all up for adoption. Upon entering the cafe, I was instantly drawn to the hot pink neon sign that said "Mja." It turns out ... VIEW POST
The Hype is Real: My Experience at the Blue Lagoon in Iceland
I'm going to tell y'all that the hype is real about the Blue Lagoon! Someone is going to yell at me for being basic but I don't care. I am SO GLAD I made the decision to head straight to the Blue Lagoon from Keflavik Airport last Thursday. I had originally planned to go on my way home on Sunday but when I went to buy my ticket about a week ahead of time, the good time slots were all taken so I switched my plans and decided to go directly from the airport when I landed. BEST. DECISION. EVER. I ... VIEW POST
