Climate

Summer (June to August): The weather in Iceland during the summer months is relatively mild, with temperatures ranging between 10-15°C (50-59°F).

Public Transport

Iceland’s public transport system is limited to Reykjavik and a few larger towns. However, for this tour, all transportation will be provided. Renting a car is an option for independent travelers, but it's advisable to rent a 4x4 vehicle during the winter months due to the rugged terrain.
