Need a fresh Out of Office message to kick off the new year? How about “Gone chasing waterfalls, volcanoes, and the Northern Lights”?

We just found a last-minute January escape to Iceland—aka the Land of Fire and Ice for $643 including flights. Five glorious nights of dramatic landscapes and cozy vibes. No car required either as Reykjavík is packed with easy day tours offering multiple city pick-ups, so all you need to do is show up and layer up.

You’ll stay at Eric the Red Guesthouse (4.6/5 on TripAdvisor), perfectly positioned just steps from Hallgrímskirkja Church, the most iconic landmark in Reykjavík (yes, that one). From here, you can walk to museums, cafés, bars, shopping streets, geothermal pools, Lake Tjörnin, and more, yet still retreat to a quiet, cozy corner of the city when it’s time to recharge.

This family-run guesthouse brings serious home-away-from-home energy, with comfy beds and good vibes.
