Drove around iceland in 3 weeks in autumn airbnb and cooked food ourselves....found it really good did 3016 KM on the loop...luved it..we cam from New Zealand so the most expensive thing was the flights and 40 hours of flying and airport time. The cost was on par with New zealand to be honest.
3 years flying around Iceland in an H 60 Blackhawk helicopter courtesy of the United States Air Force. Saw a lot of neat things, guess I should have learned how to be a photographer as well.
I’m only a factory worker who saved up for my dream location shoot . I head to Iceland this December and booked a photog tour that has only ten customers . Yes it is going to be very expensive but in my eyes I will not regret it . I will be happy to come away with only a few good images . It’s about the experience and to know that I was there 😊
I was there in June 2012, the most memorable trip. 10 days in a rental car, getting the best ever, then 10 minutes later another best ever! Noticed there is now parking lots and fences, shame. While over looking a falls and canyon with no safety stuff, I noticed a little sign, " while falling, please do not grab at the vegetation, it causes erosion ".
I went to Iceland with my wife for the first time 2 years ago. And the big mistake we made was renting Airbnb. We will not do that anymore (unless it is the winter that we decided to go). Next trip we will probably rent a camper van and stay for a couple weeks. So we can be close to the places we want to see and not be bound by the Airbnb we have to be at at a certain date or have to drive a couple hours back to the Airbnb to get some sleep. I can not wait to see the rest of the videos. Iceland is probably my favorite destination. It feels so peaceful and so safe.
Great video as always Gavin... I went 12 years ago and was able to sleep eat and drink for zero money, I contacted some farming families around the Island and explained it was a dream of mine to photograph your beautiful country but finding it hard to get the money together, and asked if i could work for them 4 or 5 hours a day for a bed and some food and drink for a couple of weeks... after a phone call they said no problem and had the best trip of my life and now have friends over there for life and welcome to stay again.
I had no desire to make a second trip to Iceland until you showed what it looks like between 10pm and 3am. 😍 To see those waterfalls without crowds in the way, backed by nonstop sunset and sunrise colors within just a few hours of each other. I'd go almost anywhere to see that!
"Wheezing like a set of knackered bagpipes". Pronouncements of that eloquence are why I have learned so much about photography from your channel. So much fun in your classroom! Your images of the low hanging fruit, were wonderfully original, as well. Thank you.
Great video! My wife and I visited Iceland for 10 days back in September. Absolutely loved every second of it. Cannot wait to go back. Harvested as many decent photos as I have ever gotten. We only visited the southern part, where the furthest east we traveled was to the Vestrahorn mountains area, just a bit down the road from Höfn. While I might say that 3 weeks is a bit much, I think 10 days was toward the lower side. I would prefer another trip that is 14 to 16 days. Sidenote: on our first day there we went to Seljalandsfoss late in the day. Holy cow, I think there were fewer people in Disneyland than there were at that iconic waterfall that day. We were lucky to get a parking spot at all. Thank goodness for Photoshop's people removing capabilities!
Great video as always. I am planning a trip to Iceland shortly and would like to hear more hints and tips on visiting there on a budget because I agree, it's not cheap
It's very interesting to hear someone talk about the cost associated with travel to some of these iconic locations, I had a similar thought after an eye-wateringly expensive 2 week trip to Switzerland. While you can work out ways to spend less on travel there's a point at which it starts to have a negative impact on your enjoyment of the trip itself... so finding the right balance is tough, and then the weather can make or break your experience anyway! Looks like you've had an epic experience though, thanks for sharing!
Never seen Iceland like you have shown it here. The idea that it would be that bright at that time of the night very occurred to me. Yes Iceland on a budget video.
loved this video Gavin, with some cracking images, Iceland looks like a photographers dream, it is a place on my bucket list, and on a budget sounds good to me, love the way you talk us through your compositions, thanks foe shearing.
Really enjoyed that. I have been, and recognized many of the spots (even the genteman airing his tackle in Skogafoss - I kid you not, he's got a problem!). Bloody exhibitionist. Still, I would love a video on how to do Iceland more economically that we did (out of Nanaimo - your old haunt ;-).
I know what you mean, even for a local photographer it's getting hard move around but one of the options is the Denmark ferry for those who have camper vans, because they are too expensive to rent here, but often the best option. Good luck with your footage from Iceland :)
Thanks for this video Gavin, I would definitely love to see a video on going to Iceland on a budget. I went with my wife and two sons in August 2018 for four days on the way to England. We got a great deal from Iceland Air on the flight, and it’s only five hours from New York, probably only about 3-3.5 hours from Halifax. We also got a good deal on the hotel, but eating out is where it gets you. I did not do much photography because it would have been unfair on the boys, but I would love to go back. We were there in an Icelandic heatwave - sunshine all the way and day time highs of 19-20C. We saw a tour guide taking photographs at Vik, because, she said, “I never see Iceland like this.”
Smashing video and wonderful images! I visited Iceland just for a few days and would love to return at some point. I look forward to your next videos and yeah for sure it would be good to hear your thought on how one could save money etc when visiting! Cheers
Loved the video and images, looking forward to more of your trip, and yes anything about how to 'do' Iceland would be most welcome, so please plan that video!😀
Absolutely wonderful video Gavin and Amanda. The quality of the video itself was really nice and what beautiful images you captured. Loved it and looking forward to more.
yeah that iceland guide would be great mate , my one chance i had it all planned in then i had a son so if i can save up enough id love to get there one day
Great video, a couple of stupendas shots, and most def you should do a video on Iceland on a Budget, even maybe depending on how much time you want to put into it, some locations, places to stay, that kind of thing, Iceland is on my bucket list of places to go, Keep up the good work.
I am SO excited to see your Iceland videos, and YES, I would love to see your perspectives on seeing Iceland on a budget! My brother was stationed in Iceland for a couple of years in the 70s and came home with 3,000 slides. They were incredible, but he had used bus tour companies so he didn't have morning/evening light, most shots were through the bus windows, and he only had a basic lens, but still -- the landscape was otherworldly, and I've always wanted to go there.
Would love to see the 'Iceland for cheap bastards' video.... Hope to be travelling there in 2026 with my wife for a photo trip from Australia ! Cheers mate, this video was really enjoyable!
Bang on bud, I loved Iceland apart from getting the raging trotts from eating the lamb soup out of a cob in the city! 😫 😂 but I loved it it’s one of those lifetime ticks eh x another fab vlog love to you both JP x 😊
I really like your drone shots. They always leave me wanting more, so they are just the right length! Before I checked news of Iceland, I would have thought prices would be bargin with only a few tourists braving the volcano. Well the Blue Lagoon has reopened, so it must be over. Can't wait to see more of the trip!
My youngest has spent a great deal of time in Iceland (a geologist) Love to go! She also just got back from Scotland where she visited Fingals Cave. I promptly sent her your video of that trip…..a nice share!
We are planning on taking our Campervan to Iceland next year from the UK. The cost of getting there is astronomical, however we plan to be there for almost a month. Not only do we want to get some good photos, we also want to experience the culture, do some hiking and cycling while we are there. We visited Iceland nine years ago and did a fly drive for a week, but found that there was not enough time to experience everything we wanted to see. Looking forward to your next installment.
Thanks for an interesting video on your trip to Iceland. I know thee are those that enjoy your off beat humour but I prefer this style much more. I watch in order to learn and any advice a practical way to visit Iceland would be appreciated.
You are one of my favorite Landscape photography. Because if you don't like what you shoot you will never post it on this channel and like your sense of hummer. I am writing here also I will be interested to see how you will plan to go to Iceland on a budget. Anyway you always inspire me to go out and enjoy my landscape photography. Keep it up. And always ready to see how this shoot turns out,
Cheers Gavin, just booked flights and a van for a 2 week trip next Sept, my first time, any info on cheep shops for 'Pot Noodles' and off the beaten track locations would be great. Looking forward to the further vids and thanks for making them.
When I was in Iceland for the second time I went nocturnal (it was mid-June) and it worked a treat. Golden hour lasted for hours and I got midnight sun as well. On one occasion I made the sun rise and set numerous times just by walking a few steps up and then down a hill and repeating. I was also camping and that helps a lot to keep the costs down.
As someone else that has put off Iceland for many years I would love to see how you would do it on a budget. Then it can come back up in status in my bucket list. Also can't wait to see what you and Blake were up to in Glacier! I have now seen his point of view, and looking forward to your thoughts and images.
Hi excellent video !!!!please do a segment for the average photographer on the cheaper way to go to Iceland and some day could you go to the Faroe Islands ! And do another video we had a trip booked with you to the Faroe Islands but Covid mess things up Cheers

Funny sign 🤣 while still sending a good warning message.

we simply used a tent which we carried with us on our motorbike. That was the biggest sense of freedom and a great and inimate nature experiance.
Great video as always Gavin...

Great vid, Gavin. I'd love it if you do the 'how to travel to Iceland' video.
Really enjoyed that. I have been, and recognized many of the spots (even the genteman airing his tackle in Skogafoss - I kid you not, he's got a problem!). Bloody exhibitionist. Still, I would love a video on how to do Iceland more economically that we did (out of Nanaimo - your old haunt ;-).
