A 10-night road trip around Iceland starting July 25th, covering the Golden Circle, the South Coast, the East Fjords, and North Iceland, ending in Reykjavik on August 4th.
An Iceland trip expert planned this 11-day route for a real client's July trip: Ring Road With Landmannalaugar. It passed our checks for daily driving, highland roads and season, which is why it is one of the 177 expert-built plans in our Iceland itineraries.
The day-by-day plan below has every stop, with photos and what to see. Duplicate it to set your own dates, change the pace or swap stops; the original stays as the expert wrote it.
