Earth And Space Science In Iceland
COURSE OVERVIEW
Known as the Land of Fire and Ice, Iceland is the perfect location to earn a credit in Earth & Space Science. As soon as you touch down in Reykjavik, you will see why it has been described as one of the cleanest and greenest capital cities in the world.
We will visit the Perlan Museum to learn all about the natural wonders the country has to offer, including volcanoes, geothermal pools, glaciers and ocean life. We will tour the Golden Circle and spend time exploring caves and glaciers. And of course, no trip to Iceland is complete without participating in a Northern Lights tour!
