OUR MISSION
Pink Iceland strives to be the country’s foremost travel agent, tour operator, event and wedding planner for LGBTQI travelers. Our goal is to always offer an exemplary service, treating our guests with the utmost respect while offering a good quality product.
Pink Iceland has clear policies regarding its responsibilities to environmental and humanitarian issues. These are reflected in the services on offer and the general attitude of the company’s owners and staff.
Pink Iceland is, and will remain a beautiful, vibrant, fun and caring place of work where both owners and staff ambitiously work towards offering outstanding services to its guests
HONESTY POLICY
Pink Iceland is a privately owned company and as such it needs to make a profit. This profit pays the salaries of its staff, the rent, the wonderful and informative Pink Iceland website not to mention copious amounts of coffee for the owners. Most of Pink Iceland's money is made through commissions. This is how it works: If our guests let us book their tours, activities, and accommodation we collect a small (usually 10-15%) commission of the price. This basically means that you pay the same price, regardless of whether you book directly - or through us. You may think this might cause us to recommend really expensive accommodation and tours. Not so. We promise to do our utmost to come up with a plan that suits you, and your budget. We would never recommend anything without full confidence and/or personal experience of what's on offer. Our primary goal is working with and for the LGBTQI community and without the community's support or goodwill we wouldn't have lasted six months in the business. It is not least through word of mouth that we grow stronger every day. Our hope is that after reading this you too will ask for our recommendations and advice and/or book your holiday through us.
HUMAN RIGHTS
Pink Iceland is founded on the belief that more can be done to welcome LGBTQI visitors to Iceland. We strive to to offer the best available services to our guests, working with suppliers who respect and adhere to human and civil rights.
We at Pink Iceland have committed ourselves to contributing to LGBTQI communities around the world in whatever way we can. This has been done with monetary donations, education about what we've achieved in this country and how we went about it and through on-going volunteer work for Samtökin'78 the national LGBTQI organization in Iceland as well as Reykjavik Pride Week where we offer our time and expertise for various events and causes. We constantly revise our policies, processes and activities and actively work towards implementing these. Our human rights commitments may often go unnoticed but when applicable we update our audience about the work we undertake through our social media outlets and website.

Welcome to Iceland!
From the arrivals hall at Keflavík airport follow the signs for Flybus / Reykjavik Excursions. Busses are located just outside the arrivals hall to the right. Get on the first available one and present your ticket upon entering. There is free wi-fi on board the bus (of course!) so you can check in and start to tag #pinkiceland and update your location on all the apps! :)
Pink City Walk
Wether you are landing early or in the afternoon all our New Years Eve guests should be able to participate in the afternoon Pink City Walk where a guide from the Pink Iceland team will introduce you to the lovely city centre of Reykjavik. During the tour Reykjavik's main attractions are highlighted on foot with a sprinkle of LGBT history.
The neighbourhood we explore is where you'll be spending most of your time, 101Reykjavík: Downtown Reykjavík - from bottom to top, history and trivia. Discover how and where gay history in Reykjavík began, how the battle for equality has evolved through the years and where we are at now. See the venues frequented by LGBT people throughout the years and learn about the general history and outlook of the people who built Reykjavík and those who inhabit it today.
Evening of leisure and an optional group dinner at one of Pink Iceland's favourite restaurants.
Pink Golden Circle and Northern Lights Hunt
A relatively early rise for an amazing full day adventure in the Icelandic nature. The day starts with one of Iceland's most famous and popular tours, for a reason. The sites we visit will take your breath away with their powers, history and beauty. You will get the chance to walk around the world famous Geysir geothermal area, a geothermal field with hot springs in abundance, an erupting geyser and pools of bubbling mud. This is followed by a visit to the magnificent Gullfoss waterfall where the power of the water can be felt through the air. The penultimate stop is at Þingvellir national park, the site of the oldest parliament in the world where the great Atlantic rift is clearly visible, a rift that is slowly tearing Iceland apart along tectonic plates. After a rewarding day exploring the Golden Circle we'll stop at either the Laugarvatn Fontana spa or Secret Lagoon for a warm and refreshing dip.
Once We've completed the Golden Circle tour the day is far from over. For dinner we will stop in the geothermal town of Hveragerði at Varmá restaurant at the wonderful Frost and Fire hotel, we then enjoy some bubbly and gaze into the sky after the Northern Lights. If we don't see the Northern lights from Frost and Fire or if we want a closer look your Pink guide will venture out into the mysterious darkness of South Iceland to hunt for the lights.
DECEMBER 31ST
