Location is dependent entirely on the weather. There are maps to show the best days and areas to see them, but it's not months in advance. I saw them in Reykjavik in end of November. Iceland is easy to travel around, I wouldn't bother with any tours unless it'd be a flying one or a boat one.

If you're not going off-roading, then driving in Iceland with AWD is painless. Itinerary is going to highly depend on how long you're going. Spring/Summer is going to be best to hike and see the nature. Winter is best for the Northern Lights opportunities.

I had a lot of fun staying mostly local to Reykjavik in the Winter, and traveled more around the country in the Spring.

To be fair, Tolkien had an Icelandic nanny who taught him a lot of the Icelandic/Nordic myths and folk tales, which may have been an influence on his writings - so it seems only appropriate that we mention Mordor in relation to the Icelandic volcanoes.

Hello there! Thanks for checking out my photo, I took this with my Canon R6. I took this a few years ago in 2021 when I was roaming around Wyoming with some photography friends. Got so many beautiful photos during this trip that I still regularly go back to.

If you want to see more of my work, check me out on Instagram, Vero, or BeHance:
