20 Photos to Inspire You to Visit Iceland

Iceland is my favorite place I have visited. It has a diverse landscape, amazing culture, and incredibly kind locals. It is the perfect place you can visit if you are looking to explore a magical land that feels otherworldly.

 
 

Alex and I visited Iceland a few years ago and fell head over heels in love. We shared our experience on Instagram, which made everyone around us fall in love just as quickly. If Iceland wasn’t on their bucket list, it is now! It’s funny, when we first decided to travel to Iceland, everyone was like, “Uh, why? Isn’t it cold there? What is even there to see?” and now they are all planning their trips to Iceland. 

I am going to inspire you to add Iceland to your bucket list or move it further up if it’s already on there with 20 beautiful photos from our trip! Be prepared to feast your eyes on the most magical country!
