7 Nights on Star Pride
In the land of fire and ice, your Windstar voyage around Iceland brings you to an otherwordly landscape. Glaciers top mountains, even volcanos. Startlingly blue lagoons, heated by vents from under the Earth's crust. Your cruise begins in the capital city of Reykjavik. As your ship circumnavigates the island, Iceland cruise excursions reveal once-in-a-lifetime experiences, such as hikes on ice and on lava fields. You may explore lava caves with helmet and flashlight or take a flightseeing tour over icy glacial terrain. Nature tours by Zodiac provide up-close views of humpback whales. History tours include Viking lore. Under the near 24-hour Midnight Sun, your Iceland cruise takes you far beyond the typical tourist hot spots – including an overnight in Seydisfjordur, with its colorful chalet-style homes. The leisurely pace affords time to converse with the locals, sample Icelandic cuisine and craft beer.

Complimentary Windstar Destination Discovery Event
Sagas & Songs at the Blue Church
Rugged and remote East Iceland is feathered with fjords and fishing villages, but few are as beautiful as Seydisfjordur. During our complimentary Destination Discovery Event: Sagas & Songs at the Blue Church, offered on this and select other voyages, you’ll get a rare insider’s look at both local landmarks and the culture of this small Icelandic community.
Located in the East Fjords between steep mountains, the settlement grew up in the late 1800s around the Norwegian herring fishery. Many of the colorful old timbered houses were imported from Norway by wealthy merchants and whalers. Perhaps the most remarkable building, though, is the Blue Church.
With clean, Scandinavian lines and a beautiful glacier blue color, the church is one of Iceland’s most recognizable landmarks. It was moved or rebuilt a few times over the years before finding its permanent home in Seydisfjordur in 1922. (Sometimes intentionally and sometimes at the whim of Mother Nature, through storms and fire.) Leading up to the church is the vibrantly colored Rainbow Street presenting a scene worthy of a fairytale.
During your exclusive Destination Discovery Event: Sagas & Songs at the Blue Church, you’ll enter the church to find it’s as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside. In this idyllic setting you’ll be treated to an exclusive cultural performance by local entertainers. The singer and guitarist are natives of East Iceland and they’ll entertain you with stories and songs they grew up with. From tales of ghosts, elves and trolls to joyful songs and ballads about lost sailors, you’ll get a feel for the real Iceland and its people.
Please note: This Destination Discovery Event: Sagas & Songs at the Blue Church has been scheduled in a way that will allow you to book and experience another shore excursion on the same day and you will not miss anything.


The world's most northerly capital enjoys almost 24-hour sunlight in summer, all the better to show off the city's eclectic architecture and dazzling natural wonders.

Beautiful Grundarfjordur is located between a mountain range and the sea. The road nearby crosses a lava field that is partially warm so snow does not always stick there.

The peninsula there received the EARTHCHECK Sustainable Community Award in 2010, the first area in Iceland to win such an award.
