FAQs

  • What is the best month to tour Iceland?
    The best time for student trips to Iceland is during the summer months (June to August), when the days are longest, and the weather is milder, allowing students to explore the country’s stunning landscapes comfortably. However, if you’re hoping to see the northern lights, visiting between September and March offers the best chance to witness this magical natural phenomenon.

  • Do students travelling to Iceland require a visa?
    Groups travelling on educational trips to Iceland do not require a visa if they are UK citizens and the trip is for a short stay (up to 90 days) within the Schengen Area. However, students from other countries may need a visa. It’s always advisable to check the latest travel requirements before the trip. For more details, refer to the UK government website.
