Great video! I really enjoyed it and your pictures and videos were amazing! Did you have any issues flying your drone at the other locations besides gulfoss? Just wondering since I’m planning to bring one as well. Thanks!

[@LyfeUntethered]

Yes! You can't fly in national parks - so that's a big chunk, as in, the big glacier and Thingviller National Park. I asked for permission online to fly at Diamond Beach, but was denied becuase of the seaons for birds breeding or something. I could have flown in a lot of other places, however. There's usually a sign if drones aren't permitted. Where it's NOT permitted is usually to protect wildlife. It is worth bringing a drone, for sure, just be mindful of the signs.

[@ActOutEnglish]

I need to go.

[@LyfeUntethered]

I would highly recommend it Jack!

What an amazing video, I’m planning on a trip next year, 2023 . What month of the year did you go ? I’m trying to avoid the with crowds, but don’t want to go when is to clod or wet , which month would you say is the best . Thank you so much for your help 🙏

[@LyfeUntethered]

We went early June. It was kind of perfect, not too crowded, moderate weather, kind of the beginning of the "season". Plus, because it literally never got dark, we could hit most spots any time of day or night and avoid crowds altogether. One catch is that you won't see northern lights in June. That's a winter thing. It's the only time we've ever been, so I can't say if it's the best time or not. Iceland IS expensive, so it's gonna be cheaper in the winter... But also ❄❄! Thanks!

[@kodocha53735]

Hi I came acrossed your video by accident. The footage is amazing! What month did you guys go, and when is it the best time to go?

[@LyfeUntethered]

We went early June, just before the crowds. It’s warmer in summer, but more crowded. In winter it’s dark matter ch of the day but you can see the northern light. Way less crowded I’m sure. When we went was perfect for us. It all depends on what you want to see and do.

[@jtorrescr]

The voice in this video is great! Did you hire to have the voice narration or is it from the channel owner?

[@VIDEOMANIACDJI]

Hi amazing video ❤ I have a trip to Iceland in a few months, and I wanted to ask if you need a permit in those places you recorded with the drone or can you normally launch the drone and fly? can't find a map anywhere where it is allowed and where not, did you use any application to check the zone? I will be grateful for a hint

[@LyfeUntethered]

it's not allowed in national parks, but other places I had no trouble. I think you can get permits in some national parks, but they can deny based on season/animals.

[@VIDEOMANIACDJI]

@@LyfeUntethered ok thanks for the information, yes I knew that you can buy a permit for an additional fee of 300 €

[@futurism7131]

Great tips in this video, thank you! I have a question, where exactly did you rent your campervan? And are you able to rent snorkeling gear at Silfra on the spot? If so, how much does that cost?

[@LyfeUntethered]

I dont' remember where we got the van, but I thing there are several places if you google. For silfra I believe you must have a tour guide and can't just jump in on your own.

[@Halli50]

Bear in mind that all these complicated Icelandic place names are just German-style compound words. A name like Eyjafjallajökull is easier when broken down into it's components; Eyja-Fjalla-Jökull. The literal meaning reflects the fact that it is a glacier (jökull) sitting atop a series of mountains (fjalla), seen from the Vest-manna-eyjar (Eyjar = Islands, i.e. Westman Islands) - the alternative being that the Vest-manna-eyjar can be seen from this glacier. Jökulsárlón, broken down, is Jökuls-ár-lón, i.e. Glacer-River-Lagoon. Simple, right? If you are raised with the oldest known Norwegian dialect (Old Norse) as your native language (also called Icelandic) this becomes as natural as breathing...

[@rognvalduringthorsson7727]

Very beautiful photography. But "Seljalandsfoss" does not mean "selling the land of waterfalls". The word "sel" is a cognate of "shieling" which means "collection of huts on a seasonal pasture". "Seljaland" is then the name of the area around the waterfall, which probably used to contain a lot of shielings (literally: "land of shielings") and Seljalandsfoss therefore means waterfall in the land of shielings.

[@LyfeUntethered]

Thanks! Google failed me 😂! The true meaning is much more interesting. How bad was my pronunciation of all the Icelandic words?

[@rognvalduringthorsson7727]

​@@LyfeUntethered A well kept secret is that every Icelander takes such pleasure from foreigners attempting to pronounce icelandic words (no matter the pronounciation), that you never have to feel guilty about it. But I was generally impressed by the pronunciation (especially 'Seljavallalaug' and 'Skógarfoss'). It might be of interest to you that 'Seljavallalaug' and 'Seljalandsfoss' are more closely related in meaning than you might suspect. The 'sel' in both is a cognate of the old English 'shieling', and 'land' is simply land in English, but 'valla' in 'Seljavallalaug' is the genitive of the word 'vellir' which means roughly 'flatlands'. So, Seljalandsfoss really means 'waterfall in the land of shielings' and 'Seljavallalaug' means 'bathing pool in the land of shielings'. The word 'laug' means bathing pool and the icelandic word for Saturday is 'Laugardagur', literally day of going to the bathing pool = clean up day before Sunday; the day of rest.

[@rognvalduringthorsson7727]

I have to add that the interviews with the woman who told the story of Hrunalaug and the guy talking about Grettislaug was really special. It got to the history of the places your were depicting. I had some very personal moments, since my grandmother was born on a farm close to Grafarkirkja and as a youngster (about 11 yrs old) I helped deliver lambs in the springtime on the meadows just where the beer spa is now. At that time (in the early 1980s) beer was prohibited by law. It was first made legal in 1986. Thank you!
