Enjoy a leisurely drive to Skrúður, Iceland's oldest botanical garden. When you arrive you'll have 20 minutes of free time to wander the glorious grounds. Founded in 1909 by a local vicar, it's also known as the world's northernmost botanical garden. Originally founded as a pioneering environmental education center, today it's a peaceful setting of different species of shrubs and trees. Scattered benches are perfect for marveling at the views across the fjord. Then, you'll travel to Flateyri for a guided tour of this 200-year-old fishing village. Your first stop is the local church where you'll hear an Icelandic musical program followed by a leisurely stroll to the old bookstore for coffee and homemade pastries. At the completion of your walking tour, you'll return to Ísafjörður and your awaiting ship.

Special Notes:

The refreshments consist of sweet Icelandic pastries. It is not possible to request gluten free or other dietary restricted refreshments.
