Reykjanes Peninsula Tour – Iceland

April 25th 2020, was supposed to be the start of my Iceland Adventure, on the way to the UK for my annual visit with my mum in Newquay, Cornwall. I was going to tour Iceland for a week visiting popular hot spots as well as hidden gems. However, due to COVID-19 and the travel restrictions needed to prevent the spread of the disease, my flights to Iceland and the UK were cancelled (which I expected).

If Iceland is on your travel bucket list, come with me as I take you on a Virtual Iceland Adventure.
