Iceland is a magical place. It’s the land of sheep, northern lights, volcanoes with unpronounceable names (try saying “Eyjafjallaj\u00f6kull”), rugged landscapes, waterfalls, mountains, and natural hot springs. Its stunning, scenic landscape feels out of this world.<\/p>

Iceland quickly became one of my favorite countries after my first visit. It\u2019s such a beautiful island filled with warm, welcoming people and sweeping vistas you won’t find anywhere else in the world. I have relished every subsequent visit to the country and go back as often as I can.<\/p>

However, Iceland is an expensive place to visit. Traveling here on a budget is difficult as Iceland is definitely not a cheap country (and the growing influx of tourists is only increasing prices further).<\/p>

Fortunately, it is possible to see a lot without going broke if you plan ahead. You won’t be living large if you’re here to backpack, but Iceland is worth the expense.<\/p>

This travel guide to Iceland can help you plan your trip, get off the beaten path, and see the sights without breaking the bank!<\/p>
