A group trip to Iceland, Iceland
Volcanic, treeless and unlike anywhere else. Costly, but the landscape does the work. Best months for a group: June, July and August. Our estimate for three nights in July is about £406 each from London, flights plus a share of the bed.
When to go
Iceland is in season for a group in June, July and August, the months we would pick first. Average daytime highs are 13°C in June, 15°C in July and 14°C in August. Outside those months it can still work, it is simply what our catalogue rates highest for a trip with friends.
