Do bear in mind that Iceland is a pretty expensive country (accommodation / food etc) so by doing this extended stopover on a connecting flight they actually saved a fair bit of money as opposed to doing a separate trip to Iceland for the Blue Lagoon.
We looked at doing this but given we will have a 8 & 3 y/o with us... the wee guy deffo prob wouldn’t be suited to then Blue Lagoon. Don’t think I’ve seen any photos of kids that young at it so they may even have a minimum age limit in place.
I think for the next 5 years or so we will purely be considering Reyk as a connection only.
