We’re excited to share that Green Edventures’ Icelandic Knitting Tours experiences have been featured in BBC Travel! In the article “Explore True Icelandic Culture in the Country’s Less-Travelled North,” the spotlight is on Northern Iceland—an untapped region that offers travelers an authentic glimpse into Icelandic traditions, landscapes, and local communities.
Why Northern Iceland?
While many visitors explore Iceland’s well-known southern coast, women’s travel adventures in the north provide something truly special. From breathtaking fjords to vibrant fishing villages and steaming geothermal hot springs, this region is ideal for those seeking solo female travel knitting tours in Iceland or group experiences that combine cultural learning with nature.
What Makes Our Iceland Tours Unique?
1. Icelandic Knitting Tours with Local Artisans
Knitting is deeply woven into Icelandic heritage, and our Icelandic knitting tours allow travelers to learn from local artisans. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced knitter, you’ll have the chance to work with authentic Icelandic wool, visit local yarn shops, and create a piece inspired by centuries-old traditions.
2. A True Iceland Cultural Tour
Our itineraries go beyond the typical tourist experience. You’ll visit small communities, hear folktales from local storytellers, and gain insight into Iceland’s sustainable way of life. From the unique Textile Museum, family farms, artisans studios and workshops, to community sheep round up (réttir), every moment on our Iceland cultural tour is an opportunity to connect with the past while experiencing the present.
3. Adventure and Relaxation in Nature
After exploring volcanic landscapes and waterfalls, unwind in natural hot springs under the Northern Lights. Whether you prefer an active journey or a peaceful retreat, our tours offer the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation.
