13-day Itinerary, Hotel + Motorhome, Reykjavik, South and Snæfellsnes
Hello!
Could you check our end of July itinerary? In a nutshell, we will spend two nights in Reykjavik, five nights exploring the south coast in a Motorhome, two nights at Blue Lagoon, two nights in Snæfellsnes, and one last night in Keflavik.
We have a detailed schedule for every day and have timed each step.
We will not necessarily follow everything and watch our clock all the time, but it should allow us to enjoy each stop while still being able to complete the day as planned. And get a better grasp of the driving times.
Are we missing any must-see or must-do along our itinerary? What do you think of the schedule? Anything we should remove?
Please let me know your thoughts about the activities, restaurants, etc... if you would have done things differently.
Everything is already booked, but we should be allowed to cancel or amend things in most cases.
