Reykjavik, Heimaey, Djupivogur, South Queensferry, Rotterdam

Reykjavik, the capital city of Iceland is noted for its abundant parks, brightly colored houses, steaming thermal pools and an incredibly vibrant music scene. Although small in populations, the world’s most northerly capital has everything larger cities have to offer. For passengers spending time in the city there is a wide choice of museums, galleries, restaurants and cafés. Reykjavik is the gateway to Iceland's natural wonders, which range from ice fields to thermal pools. Just a few minutes drive outside the city is unspoilt countryside where you can encounter a cross-section of Iceland’s natural wonders, geology and history. Tours outside the city give you an idea of the many contrasts of Iceland’s natural beauty from lush valleys to barren higlands, from thunderous waterfalls to silent, mystical glaciers, from lava fields to sandy coastlines, from hotsprings to geothermal spas. If you have the opportunity, don't miss a dip in the pleasant waters of the Blue Lagoon.

Heimaey is the largest of 15-18 islands in the Westman Islands archipelago, 13.4 km2, located just off the south-west coast of Iceland's mainland. It is considered the "Pompeii of the North", after the Icelandic eruption in Heimaey in 1973, which buried around four hundreds of houses. An entire museum, Eldheimar has been built around the remains of one of the homes. It's totally worth seeing the museum and get closer to the history of Heimaey. Everything is within walking distance. While in town, you will see the extraordinary Stafkirkjan, a Norse timber church, a gift from the Norwegians to commemorate 1000 years since Christianity, the Aquarium and Natural History Museum (Sæheimar).There are hiking paths all over the island so any reasonably fit traveler should be able to enjoy the sightseeing on foot, choosing exciting natural trail tours.

Djúpivogur is a typical small fishing village on the east coast of Iceland.  Visitors have easy access to Vatnajokull, the biggest glacier in Europe, and to the magical scenery of the Vatnajokull lagoon.

South Queensferry is is an anchorage port, which was named after St. Margaret, the 11th century Queen of Scotland, who instigated the ferry service across the Firth of Forth which ran until the completion of the Forth Road Bridge in 1964. It is the gateway to Edinburgh, the political, commercial and cultural heart of Scotland, a gracious city noted for its superb skyline, its impressive collection of glorious architecture and its beautiful parks. Edinburgh manages to combine both ancient and modern in a uniquely Scottish atmosphere. The Old and New Towns of Edinburgh were listed as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO in 1995. Take a walk along the old town, the city's medieval heart along the Royal Mile, marvel the imposing castle, symbol of the city and the Georgian (late 18th century) New Town and commercial heart of the city and finish your walk tasting local whiskey or beer at one of the traditional pubs which are all around the city.

Often called the gateway to Europe, the port city of Rotterdam is full of old-world charm, offering amazing views and a maze of wharves and canals, along with towering spires make for a beautiful sight. The Nazi bombardment of 1940 gutted most of the old city, so, you will notice that Rotterdam's architecture is an intriguing mix of old and new: modern glass skyscrapers often stand adjacent to 19th- and 18th-century buildings. During your walk, you will see three pre World War II buildings in the city center, the city hall, St. Laurence church and the White House. Explore the Museum Boymans van Beuningen, which houses a unique collection dating from the 14th century, or the Museum Voor Volkenkunde, home to ethnological exhibits, the Delfshaven quarter with the 18th century houses and the futuristic Kijk-Kubus, an upside-down housing complex.
