Board a private helicopter for the 1.5-hour flight north to Olafsfjordur and Eleven Deplar Farm.

Olafsfjordur
Delve into the landscapes surrounding Deplar Farm on foot with your guide, choosing the pace and terrain that suits you.

Olafsfjordur
Head out with a local guide to Lake Stifluvatn, where Atlantic salmon, sea-run brown trout, and Arctic char are all in residence. The beat system rotates anglers across the water to keep each stretch undisturbed, and the variety of rivers and lakes in the area means no two days fish the same. Fishing here is a shared experience, with fellow lodge guests joining on the water.

Olafsfjordur, Reykjavik
Journey from Olafsfjordur to Reykjavik by private vehicle along the Silver Circle, with stops across some of Iceland's most distinctive terrain. The route takes in Glaumbaer Torfhus , a turf farmhouse from Iceland's settlement era around 800 AD , the Vatnsnes peninsula where the Hvitserkur rock formation rises alongside a seal colony, and the rim of Grabok volcanic crater above Borgarfjordur's lava fields. A BBQ lunch follows before the afternoon moves to Hraunfossar's glacial waterfalls and Deildartunguhver , Europe's most powerful hot spring, before the drive closes in Reykjavik. Dine this evening at Grillmarkadurinn in downtown Reykjavik, where the menu centers on a tasting menu served family-style and built around Icelandic produce sourced directly from local farmers. The kitchen works with fire logs, coals, open flame, and smoke, traditional Icelandic methods that shape the character of each dish from the ground up. Drinks are payable locally.
Accommodation: The Reykjavik EDITION (B) (Deluxe Suite), Olafsfjordur
Reykjavik
Set out along the Ring Road with your private guide for a full day on Iceland's South Coast, taking in Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss waterfalls on their 200-foot drops, the towering basalt columns near Vik, and black sand beaches stretching to the horizon. The Dyrholaey Nature Reserve offers elevated views over the coastline when accessible. On the return to Reykjavik, the day closes with a tasting of Icelandic schnapps and a 3-course langoustine dinner.
Accommodation: The Reykjavik EDITION (B) (Deluxe Suite)
Reykjavik
Lift off from a nearby helipad with your private pilot for an aerial view of Reykjavik's colorful rooftops, neighboring villages, and surrounding lava fields. After ten minutes in the air, touch down on a nearby mountaintop, often Mt. Esja, for panoramic views and a chilled bottle of sparkling wine. A final scenic flight returns you to the city, where your driver is waiting for the transfer back to your hotel. Your private chauffeur will meet you for the 45-minute transfer from Reykjavik to Grindavik . Settle in for a 7-course tasting menu at Moss Restaurant at The Retreat Hotel, where the kitchen's approach is rooted in fresh, local, and seasonal Icelandic ingredients prepared with a creative and elevated hand. Every dish reflects a deep connection to the island and its produce.
Accommodation: Retreat Hotel at Blue Lagoon (B) (Lagoon Suite), Reykjavik
Reykjavik
Perched above the Blue Lagoon on the Reykjanes Peninsula, The Retreat is Iceland's most secluded luxury address. The Lava Cove suite takes that seclusion further, with a private entrance, personal lagoon, and wood-burning fireplace for an entirely self-contained stay. A private chef, in-water massage therapy, and meal packages can be arranged ahead of arrival through your private travel designer. Descend into The Retreat's wine cellar, a subterranean chamber three meters below ground, carved into lava that erupted in 1226. Joined by a private sommelier, work through a caviar tasting paired with two glasses of champagne in a setting that makes the indulgence feel entirely earned.
