Iceland DMC In India: How Much Does It Cost To Travel Iceland: Everyone knows about Iceland and well, its wonders are quite famous across the globe. Everyone would have thought of visiting Iceland once in their lifetime and some are willing to go there for a couple more times after their first visit. Iceland is a perfect holiday destination due to its natural wonders. It has Thingvellir National Park, Strokkur (Geyser), Gullfoss, Seljalandsfoss, Jokulsarlon Iceberg Lagoon, Black sandy beaches at Vik, Myvatn by the midnight sun, Fjords, Dettifoss and Godafoss, Latrabjarg bird cliffs, Holuhraun, Landmannalaugar & Thorsmork, Svartifoss, Fjadrargljufur, Snaefellsnes, etc.
You can have a solo trip to Iceland or could go on a trip with a group. It could be one hell of an experience for you and your group mates. According to me, it would not take more than 15 days to cover all the Icelandic wonders completely. First, you need to go to Iceland and for that, you have to get your visa. You can obtain your Schengen Visa for Rs 7,800 in which agent fee is also included. Next, after visa, you will have to book a flight to Iceland and you got to believe that the flight tickets fare is pretty higher and expensive. If you take a direct flight from India to Iceland then it will cost you around Rs 60,000. If you want your trip to be cheaper than that then you can take a flight to Amsterdam or Paris.

Amsterdam or Paris flights are cheaper and from there you can get Icelandic airlines that will be in low budget. You can search for Amsterdam to REK on Wow Air or Icelandair. You need to work on the timings between the flights so that the timings coordinate and you don’t miss any of your flight.
Now talking about the inner trip of Iceland, the best option that we have is a car. Iceland by car could be the best experience of your life. For traveling by car, you don’t even need an International Licence unless you have any license in English. You can book a car from BlueCar, goiceland or other local companies. These companies cover most of the insurance and also provide cheaper prices. If you want to hire cars then you must go for the above-mentioned companies and avoid falling for Hertz and Sadcar. These companies provide cars for much higher rates. The cost could be up to 60,000 Rs or above. Hiring cars from these companies also have another drawback that the cars are old and sometimes cause trouble during the trip.
Talking about your stay, there are many hostels in Iceland that provide very cheap accommodation and there you can meet many people that are actually travelers just like you. If we see about the per night charge of the hostels then most of the hostels in Iceland charge about 2,500 Rs to 3,000 Rs per night. If you want your stay to be lavish then you can go for Airbnb and guesthouses on Booking.com. These provide you with hotels, homes and vacation rentals. You can assume that these will approximately cost you around 6,000 to 10,000 Rs per night.
Well, you will find food pretty expensive in restaurants. So, it is better to be on your own and cook a meal yourself. There are kitchens in hostels or guesthouses. You can grab raw materials for cooking from stores and could cook for yourself.
