Iceland is becoming an increasingly popular tourist destination, and now with WOW air's direct flights to Reykjavik there's never been a better time to experience all that the land of fire and ice has to offer. 

Iceland's spectacular scenery and landscape are are quickly making the country on of the hot-spots in Europe to travel to, and with no shortage of beautiful sights to behold, that should come as little surprise. 

The country's capital, Reykjavik is a city set between the mountains and the sea, and whether you choose to visit in the winter or the summer, there will always be plenty to choose from in a packed events calendar. Music festivals like Ariwaves are sure to attract international visitors to the city every year, while the Secret Solstice Music Festival allows you to party all night on the longest day of the year in Iceland, as the sun never truly goes down. 

It's no secret that Icelanders love their coffee, which is why the capital is home to a thriving cafe culture that means you'll never be short of a place to stop for a quick espresso. For fans of architecture, the Hallgrímskirkja is a must see, a real feat that stretches high in to the clear blue sky and will leave you breathless. Equally, the Harpa concert hall, unveiled in 2011, is a space-age structure like nothing you've ever seen before. 

If you want to leave the city and experience nature, you'll see that Iceland really comes into its own. A trip around the Golden Circle takes in three of Iceland's most breathtaking natural landscapes, Þingvellir national park, Geysir (where we get the English word geyser from) and Gullfoss, the powerful, cascading, roaring, rainbow-making waterfall. 

If you take a trip in winter, you can also witness one of our planet's most amazing spectacles, aurora borealis (or the Northern Lights) in Iceland, something everyone should endeavour to see at least once in their lifetime. Throw into the mix the fantastic gastronomic and culinary treats that await you in Iceland, the fact that you can go whale watching, or skiing or climb a glacier, or do pretty much anything you could ever dream up, and the real question is why haven't you booked yet?
