Rick Steves' Europe

S13E02 Iceland's Ring Road

The ultimate road trip in Europe takes you on an 800-mile journey along Iceland's stunning Ring Road, also known as Highway 1. Our adventure leads us to the geothermal wonders of Lake Mývatn, the dramatic landscapes of the Eastfjords, and the breathtaking glacier lagoons in the Southeast. We explore the picturesque waterfalls and beaches of the South Coast and take a detour to the Westman Islands to spot puffins. Along the way, we also visit charming folk museums, traditional sod-roofed homes, and enjoy some whale watching for a truly immersive experience.
