Wellness adventure for women

About the tour

Imagine 5 magical days in Iceland, the land of fire and ice. Discover why it is called Earth’s heart chakra. Element4travel created and designed this tour to become an opportunity to deepen or renew your yoga, meditation, and breathwork practices every morning. Eat nourishing foods and learn about healthy living and nutrition. Experience Nature’s elements Earth, Air, Fire, and Water in the purest states found on the planet. See the island vibrating with energy and life through the smallest  days and darkest nights where the Aurora Borealis offers us a dancing show in the darkest mystical skies. Embark with your local guide on day tours in the comfort of a splendid vehicle away from the crowds and only to find adventures everywhere you stop. Allow yourself to be empowered and motivated by the magic that happens when women gather their energy together. It’s happening soon and we’d love for you to be a part of it.

Tour Description

The main guidance for the tours are nature’s 4 elements: Air, Earth, Fire and Water. Each element offers numerous ways to regenerate ourselves. These ways channeled through breathing, meditation and exercise can be the best way to reprogram our nervous system and allow us to live life in a healthier, creative and fulfilling way. Icelandic Nature is so raw and pure that those elements are so intensely open, proportioning space and conditions for us to find that connection while enjoying this epic adventure. Join our exclusive, powerful group of 8 women while traveling around Iceland, one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Explore Iceland’s majestic landscape, visit waterfalls, lava fields, glaciers and mountains, fire and ice. In the mystical dark longest nights we go out to hunt the Northern Lights. We will kick start each day with a yoga routine, mindfulness meditations, breathing exercises or self-developing journaling. Enjoy the wonders of a private glacier hike tour with a Certified glacier guide who will tell us all about the glaciers. Witness the true power of geothermal energy and come close to the newest volcano formed in the country.  Iceland is also known for great cuisine using mostly organic products and in this tour you will be able to taste a vast variety of those national products. This tour is exclusively designed by a woman to women. All women who want to connect to other like minded women. Nothing against men, but we know by experience that magic happens when women gather their strength together.

We will make a first stop by the National Park where we will be walking in between two tectonic plates, where Earth keeps growing apart and creating new land.

We will then be off to Europe’s first discovered Geysir. And finally to Gullfoss – the Golden Waterfall – a pearl that was preserved by Sigridur Tómasdóttir, a young Icelandic woman. And based on the beauty and power of the waterfall Iceland’s 1st female president named the Golden Circle.

After lunch it’s time for the day’s last stop: Kerið crater, a volcano Crater surrounded by a vibrant landscape.
Once we’re back to Hvammsvik dinner will be served in the Farm house in a very private and familiar way. After dinner there is always the option of a visit from the Northern Lights or a spontaneous guided tour by car. Get yourself well rested for a new adventure within day.

Relax time. you can use the spa today during the all day and you can choose what time.
Your guide will drive you the National Park lake Silfrá base camp where a professional guide will take you into snorkeling in between the two tectonic plates.
Back to our Farmhouse dinner will be served as a 3 course liquid meal that will for sure not only surprise you but as well rejuvenate, revitalize and energize you. The night will be very similar: Northern Lights option on if the conditions allow us to. Can we ever get tired of them? We don’t!
