Location of key sights
Probably one of the biggest pros and good things about choosing to cruise around Iceland, rather than do it land-based, is the fact that all of the key sights and places you should go to are around the coastal area. The centre of Iceland is basically a large wasteland of lava, and so all the key sights and places you’re going to want to see, stop at or go to are around the coast. So, going on a cruise is very logical. If you want to see Iceland by land, you have to drive around one key road t...
Range of excursions
On a cruise at all of the ports of call you’re also going to have a wide range of excursions. The cruise line will have curated and pulled together all the important places you need to see , and you don’t have to do any research as they will take you on things like whale watching, can to see birds like puffins, some take you to key sites where the Game of Thrones series had some of its key scenes filmed and, of course, there will be a series of different excursions, particularly at places lik...
No flying
Another big Pro is for those people who don’t like to fly, or want to avoid the hassle of flying, is you can do no-fly cruises from a number of places in Europe. For example, out of the UK you can cruise on cruise lines like the one that I’m on, which is a Saga Cruise. They sail out of Dover up to Iceland around the island and back to Dover. If you are UK-based, you can avoid flying. There are other cruise lines that will come to Iceland out of other ports around mainland Europe, so if you ar...
Excursion cost not included
One of the key additional costs above your cruise fare is likely to be excursions. If you come to Iceland you certainly want to go out and see all the great sights but bear in mind most cruise lines do not include excursions within your fare. For example, here on Saga, everything other than excursions were pretty much included: drinks, accommodation, all the dining options including speciality dining, some Wi-Fi and gratuities were included. The only extras were things like spa treatments and...
Lack of lack of local immersion
One of the cons that you could argue of going on a cruise, is that you are traveling around Iceland in a little bit of a bubble as you’re not on land staying hotels, eating in local restaurants and so you will not get much immersion and interaction with local people. Of course one thing you could do if you go on a cruise is, there will be excursions which are going to give you more cultural immersion and opportunities to mix and get closer to the Icelandic people, and there are some ports, li...
Still crowds
The other con one could argue, is that a cruise isn’t going to buffer and protect you from the crowds at the key sights, and certainly isn’t going to guarantee you great weather. Iceland has become incredibly popular, especially since about 2010, and many of the key sites, particularly Golden Circle and Jewels of the North, get very busy and coming on a cruise is not going to give you any special access or ways of avoiding the crowds. Of course, the guides when they take around will try and t...
Do the cons outweigh the pros? The fact that I’ve come here for a second time cruising to Iceland probably answers the question! I think a cruise is a phenomenal way of seeing Iceland. If you want to come to Iceland you do really need to go around the whole island to see the key places, so why not do it on a cruise? I have many more videos includin...
