★★★★★ Cruise & tour
No admission charge for anyone. Parking or transport may still cost.
FREE. Route 1, 1,332km right round the island, and the spine of almost every Icelandic itinerary. SEVEN DAYS IS THE MINIMUM and ten is better; people try it in four and spend the whole time driving. Much of it is single-lane bridges and blind summits. CHECK ROAD.IS AND SAFETRAVEL.IS BEFORE SETTING OUT. Roads close at a few hours' notice for wind, snow and ice, and the closures are enforced.
