Two World Backpackers

Iceland

Welcome to one of the countries with the wildest and stunning landscapes we have ever seen!

 

If you love photography and nature, this is the perfect country for you. Iceland is the perfect destination for first-time solo travellers, friends or families looking to a roadtrip and the perfect weekend getaway with your partner.

 

The best time to visit this gorgeous country will depend on what you would like to do. Winter time gets very cold but it’s the perfect time to experience the Northern Lights. Spring time is perfect for hiking lovers and outdoor activities. However, summer season is the peak season so it can get very expensive. So if you go during summer, make sure to book your flights and accommodation in advanced.

Important to know

Starting from the first half of 2025, travellers will be required to fill out an ETIAS visa-waiver form prior to their trip, and pay a 7€ entry fee to travel to European countries within the Schengen Area. However, applicants who are under 18 and above 70 years, and EU citizens are exempts from this payment. 

 

It’s a quick form that it’s linked to the passport and it’s valid for up to three years of until the passport expires, whichever comes first. But if you get a new passport, you need to get a new ETIAS travel authorization.
