1 58-25 Queens Blvd., Woodside, NY T: (718) ; (800) F: (718) E: W: Nature & Cultural Journeys for the Discerning Traveler YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO JOIN THE UNIVERSITY OF THE PACIFIC ON A WINTER ADVENTURE TO ICELAND THE NORTHERN LIGHTS: NATURE S MOST SPECTACULAR PERFORMANCE FEBRUARY 8 TO 13, 2019

2 YOUR ITINERARY DAY 1~FRIDAY~FEBRUARY 8 SAN FRANCISCO/REYKJAVÍK Your adventure begins as you board your overnight flight to Reykjavik. (Meals Aloft) DAY 2~SATURDAY~FEBRUARY 9 REYKJAVÍK /BLUE LAGOON Your flight arrives at Keflavik International Airport this morning, where you will be met by your guide and start your drive along the coast. Your first stop is in Grindavík a beautiful Icelandic fishing town on the south coast of the Reykjanes peninsula where you will enjoy an authentic Icelandic welcome breakfast. A short distance to the north of Grindavík is the famous Blue Lagoon (Bláa Lónið). Take a dip in the pleasantly warm, mineral-rich water. The lagoon is a natural geothermal pool in the middle of a large and dramatic lava field. After the overnight flight, a dip in the Blue Lagoon is a great way to unwind and relax. Have your cameras handy for the magnificent sites you ll see while driving along the coast, including waterfalls, the sudden bursts of nearby geysers, glaciers, impressive mountains, and possibly a herd of Icelandic Horses lunging along the road. En route to your hotel visit the large geothermal area of Krýsuvík, a fissure zone created by separation of the mid-atlantic ridge running across Iceland. Krýsuvík is one of the most striking landscapes in Iceland. Within the same area is the stunning Seltún geothermal field, where volcanic fumaroles, mud pots and hot springs have formed over millennia. The result of the geothermal activity is a landscape seemingly painted bright yellow, red and green; a result of sulfur interacting with the other minerals in the soil. Final stop for the day is at the new LAVA Centre, an information center for the region. It opened in the summer of 2017 with a full-blown multimedia experience immersing you in Iceland's volcanic and seismic life and includes a 12m-high model of Iceland's volcanic core, an earthquake simulator and a cinema.

3 Your three- night stay at the luxuriously cozy Ranga Hotel will be the perfect blend of secluded relaxation, and enriching culture. All guests are provided with bathrobes and slippers, and all rooms have views of either the East Ranga River, or Mount Helka Volcano. Enjoy free Wi-Fi, in-room coffee/tea maker, and 24-hour room service. The restaurant serves modern Nordic cuisine focused on fresh local ingredients. Overnight at the RANGÁ HOTEL (B,L,D) DAY 3~SUNDAY~FEBRUARY 10 SOUTH COAST Drive along the south coast of Iceland, one of the country's most beautiful and scenic regions where you will see amazing waterfalls, majestic glaciers, black sand beaches and depending on the weather, some of the most gorgeous vistas you ll ever encounter. Among the stops on this tour are at the gorgeous Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls. Seljalandsfoss is part of the Seljandsá river, which has its origins in Eyjafjallajökull glacier. What makes Seljalandsfoss so famous and interesting is that you can walk behind it. You will also stop at Reynisfjara black sand beach, with the Reynisdrangar rock formations and columnar basalt. This afternoon, head back to the hotel for dinner before setting out on a Northern Lights hunt in the evening. Overnight at the RANGA HOTEL. (B,D)

4 DAY 4~MONDAY~FEBRUARY 11 REYKJAVÍK~GULLFOSS WATERFALL/ GEYSER STROKKUR, FRIÐHEIMAR FARM & SECRET LAGOON After a hearty breakfast, head towards Gullfoss waterfall, sometimes referred to as the Golden Waterfall, located in South Iceland on the Hvítá (White) river which is fed by Iceland s second biggest gla cier, the Langjökull. The white foaming glacial river Hvítá abruptly plunges in two stages (36 feet and 68 feet) into crevice 105 feet deep. The crevice, about 66 feet wide, and 1.5 miles in length forms a beautiful canyon. As one first approaches the falls, the crevice is obscured from view, so that it appears that a mighty river simply vanishes into the earth, making a dramatic entrance to the viewer! Next, you ll head to the Geysir geothermal area where the geyser Strokkur, the most active one, explodes every 6 to 10 minutes with a fountain of hot water, reaching easily up to 98 feet. In the afternoon, visit the Friðheimar Farm to see how this family has developed an indoor greenhouse technique to grow tomatoes all year long. The greenhouse is nearly 100% sustainable, using geothermal water, and heat. A brief lecture will provide an insight into the history of Icelandic horticulture. On your way back to hotel stop at the Secret Lagoon for a refreshing bath in the newly renovated oldest swimming pool in Iceland where you are surrounded by hot springs. Return to your hotel and after dinner once again set out for a Northern Lights hunt. Overnight at the RANGA HOTEL. (B,L,D)

5 DAY 5~TUESDAY~FEBRUARY 12 THINGVELLIR NATIONAL PARK/ REYKJAVÍK Head back to Reykjavik and en route visit Thingvellir National Park, the national shrine of Iceland and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. At Thingvellir literally "Parliament Plains" the Alþing general assembly was established around 930 and continued to convene there until Today Thingvellir is a protected national shrine due to its historical past, and its geological wonders. From Thingvellir drive to Reykjavik where you ll take in a short tour of the city This afternoon you ll have time to explore the city on your own, reconvening with your fellow travelers for a farewell dinner at a local restaurant in the center of town. Your accommodation tonight is the Skuggi Hotel, a four-star brand-new hotel offering top quality service and facilities. The hotel is located in one of the oldest streets in Reykjavik, and is just a short walk away from the main shopping district.

6 OPTIONAL 3-DAY POST-EXTENSION TO WEST ICELAND DAY 6~WEDNESDAY~FEBRUARY 13 REYKJAVÍK/ BORGARFJÖRÐUR~LANGJOKULL GLACIER (ICE TUNNEL)~HORSE FARM~BORGARNES Early this morning you will say farewell to the rest of your group returning to the US, as your journey continues with your drive under the sea tunnel to Borgarfjörður where you will visit the most famous sights in the area. Get ready for a unique glacier encounter, a once in a lifetime adventure to Iceland s most significant, new attraction the man-made Ice Cap Glacier, located high on Europe s second largest glacier, Langjokull (the long glacier). Here you have a chance to experience the awesome ice cap glacial environment as you ride in specially modified glacier vehicle and to bear witness to global warming. While there are a few man-made Ice Tunnels and Ice Caves in various places around the world, there is nothing quite like this into the glacier, either high up in a remote area of an Ice Cap Glacier, or on such a scale. Never before has anyone been able to see the beautiful blue ice at the heart of an Ice Cap Glacier; it is not quite a Jules Verne journey to the centre of the earth, or even to the absolute centre of the glacier, but it feels like an exciting and magical journey, deep within the glacier, and it is deep enough to reach another world, a world of magnificent, stunning blue ice. WARM CLOTHING MANDATORY Recommended clothing and equipment: Waterproof shoes and warm socks Base and mid layer clothing Waterproof and warm coat Hat & gloves Sunglasses Next stop is the luxuriating Deildartunguhver Thermal Spring, the most powerful spring in Europe. It provides 180 l/sec of 100 C hot water. Most of the water used for central heating in the towns of Borgarnes and Akranes is taken from Deildartunguhver. Nearby is the beautiful Hraunfossar waterfall a series of waterfalls formed by rivulets streaming over a distance of about 2,952 feet out of the Hallmundarhraun. The waterfalls come from an underground fresh water river and down the Hraunfossar and in to the white river Hvítá.

7 Located about an hour's drive north of Reykjavik, in the quaint, beautiful town of Borgarnes, the Icelandair Hotel Hamar is surrounded by immense natural beauty and fascinating attractions. The property offers 54 suite rooms with simple, modern decor. All rooms are equipped with modern amenities including under-floor heating to keep you warm, whatever the weather. Wi-Fi access is available in public areas of the hotel. There is a restaurant serving daily breakfast and an à la carte dinner menu offering a variety of Icelandic and international dishes.

(B,L,D) DAY 7~THURSDAY~FEBRUARY 14 SNÆFELLSNES PENINSULA Drive across the Snaefellsnaes Peninsula, a diverse and beautiful land of volcanoes, fjords, and sheer cliff peaks.

Enjoy the beautiful black beach at Djúpalónssandur and visit the 246 feet Lóndrangar rock pinnacles of basalt standing in the sea. Continue to Arnarstapi on the south coast of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, one of Iceland's favorite destinations. This tiny fishing village was an important harbour and a trading post for the area and the population was a lot bigger than it is today. Take a walk along the coastline to watch the birds and the magnificent lava formations. The seaside and the cliffs between Arnastapi and Hellnar have been made a Natural Reserve in One of the interesting features of Snæfellsjökull national park is Vatnshellir lava cave which was opened to the public in the summer of Walk along the 656 feet cave and down 114 feet below the surface to experience unique colours and lava formations.
