IF you are toying with idea of a trip ‘up north’ then you could find yourself a bit further than Inverness.
Reykjavik is Europe’s most northerly capital and some real scenic delights await you in Iceland. Just imagine – mountains, volcanoes, geysers and glaciers as the backdrop to your holiday selfies.
Makes a change from the poolside and palm trees!
In summer, visitors to this uber-cool city can enjoy long days under the midnight sun, whereas you can look forward to a fantastic display of the Northern Lights if you travel there in the winter months. A feast for the senses in any season.
