Quotes from last year’s trip-

“I really loved the Iceland trip last year. It was such an amazing experience being able to explore the incredible landscape while also having opportunity to make and strengthen friendships”

“Iceland was one of the best experiences of my life! From the sights, the interactions, the activities, the new friends I made – it was unforgettable”

“I returned and felt so confident about my favourite subject – I completely understood waterfall formations and glaciation.  I had so much fun learning at the same time”

“My magical experience in Iceland had memorable moments such as going to the Lagoon and making your skin glow, the geyser which took me by surprise, and visiting Reykjavík and spending free time with my friends. The scenery of Iceland is breathtaking and I would love to return one day to explore more of this beautiful country!”
