Setting sail from Reykjavik, the first stop is Heimaey, the only inhabited island in the Westman archipelago. This rugged and windswept land is shaped by volcanic eruptions and rich maritime traditions. Continuing along the coastline, you will reach Djúpivogur, a picturesque village on Iceland’s east coast nestled within the Berufjörður fjord. Dramatic black sand beaches and a thriving bird population provide a stunning natural backdrop.
As the journey heads north, you will arrive in Akureyri, a charming town just below the Arctic Circle. From here, you may visit the stunning Goðafoss waterfall or unwind in the region’s soothing geothermal sea baths.
Further west, the cruise reaches Ísafjörður, a remote and breathtakingly beautiful town in the heart of the Westfjords. Deep fjords carve through the mountainous landscape, offering a glimpse into traditional Icelandic life. The adventure continues to Grundarfjörður, home to the iconic Kirkjufell mountain, one of the country’s most photographed landmarks. The surrounding Snaefellsnes Peninsula is a place of extraordinary beauty, often referred to as “Iceland in Miniature” for its diverse collection of volcanoes, glaciers, cliffs, and beaches.
Returning to Reykjavik, the journey concludes with a final opportunity to take in Iceland’s vibrant culture and stunning scenery before bidding farewell to this remarkable land.
Every element of this experience has been carefully curated to ensure a seamless, enriching, and stress-free adventure.
Everything is taken care of from the moment you arrive – luxurious accommodations at the Iceland Parliament Hotel by Hilton, private transfers, exclusive excursions, and exquisite dining experiences.
The journey’s all-inclusive nature means you can fully immerse yourself in Iceland’s wonders without worrying about the details.
With expert-led discussions, carefully planned excursions, and world-class hospitality, the Amaco “Iceland – The Land of Fire & Ice” Small Group Tour & Conference is more than just a tour – it is an extraordinary opportunity to explore, learn, and connect in one of the world’s most captivating destinations.
To ensure an intimate and enriching experience, we have elected to cap the group at 40 participants. This group size allows for greater access to expert guides, more meaningful interactions with fellow travellers, and a seamless travel experience without the logistical challenges of a larger group.
Whether enjoying exclusive excursions, dining at some of Iceland’s finest restaurants, or participating in conference sessions, this small-group approach enhances every aspect of the journey, creating an atmosphere of camaraderie and shared discovery.

Amaco is not only a member of ATIA (the Australian Travel Industry Association) and CATO (Council of Australian Tour Operators) but we are also ATAS Travel Accredited. This means we have met strict industry financial, operational, and management standards and criteria. Only the best industry agents achieve this accreditation, meaning you can travel with us knowing that you’re in safe and capable hands.
With almost 30 years of experience in planning and running conferences, we understand that participants may want to add additional travel destinations and adventures before or after the all-inclusive packages we provide.
Other conference operators might discourage you from doing this. Sometimes, it’s because of the added complexity it creates and at other times they’ll try to talk you out of it simply because they don’t have capable or experienced staff with the breadth and depth of the advisors we employ.
We encourage all participants to make the most of the time away. This might mean departing earlier than the rest of the group and visiting other destinations before meeting up with the main group at the conference or staying on at the conclusion and doing some additional travel.
Our travel advisors are perfectly positioned to assist you with making these arrangements and will do all the hard work for you – seamlessly combining your personalised itinerary with the group program.
Amaco is an Accredited Education Provider for the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) and the Australian College of Rural & Remote Medicine. Over the years, members of our tea have also worked closely with the Pharmacy Guild of Australia, the Australian Medical Association, the Pharmaceutical Society of Australia, the Australian Dental Association, and many specialist associations and colleges.
Each conference we run includes an education syllabus that assists GPs, pharmacists, and health professionals in improving the quality of care they provide to patients and customers while giving them the opportunity to travel to and experience new and exciting destinations.
Our conference will allow delegates to earn CPD hours/points based on the content and time spent in sessions. As has been the case with past conferences, we will work closely with participants affiliated with other associations to ensure they receive maximum recognition for attending the conference.
The content of the education sessions will be relevant to GPs, Medical Specialists, Pharmacists, Dentists, Nurses, and other health providers. We encourage all attendees to register for the conference sessions.
The Education Committee for Iceland – The Land of Fire & Ice Conference will be selected in late 2025, with final conference topics to be chosen based on the feedback from our previous conference attendees and with input from the RACGP, ACRRM, and medical journals. Suitable speakers will be approached based on the topics selected.
Subject to final accreditation, the Iceland – The Land of Fire & Ice Conference will include between 12 and 14 hours of accredited education.
ACRRM members can also expect the education program to be accredited and to earn CPD points. RACGP and ACRRM accreditation will be applied for under the triennium 2026 to 2028.
As has been the case in the past, Amaco will work with pharmacy bodies and those affiliated with other associations to ensure they receive maximum recognition for attending the conference.
We welcome applications from potential presenters and encourage anyone interested to contact us for further information.
