Hi

I'll be travelling from France, and without a car, so I'm looking for the same information and with additional challenges lol

Did you find anything useful ?

that does sounds awesome!

Honestly, there are no big plans for me too. Main thing is to go there, have snacks, see eclipse,go home, Everything else is extra.

Yeah, true. No plans yet, waiting on last minute stuff because of finances. If anything, I'll probably just find stuff to eat, and places to walk to, in Reykjavík. I want to go to Skrímslasetrið - The Icelandic Sea Monster Museum, because that sounds awesome!

Iceland is expensive probably because its an isolated islands far away, been there once as transfer, Would really love to go here as we were there just few hours. Really beautiful place!! Hope you will enjoy it!!! Any extra plans there?

That's really good! I couldn't get a hotel at all for that price. I ended up with a hostel for 200 a night in a 6-person room in Reykjavik. Most hotels were completely booked or at least 400 a night (and I'm going for 6 days).

Probably because Iceland is closer to the States, and has one of the longest times for totality.

i check, and, in my opinion, it’s that bad, could find quite many decent places, especially becaue we are splitting in half and because we are so much more flexible with car. £200 for 2nights for 2, not bad at all

Hope you find a spot in mainland Europe! I expect it'll be limited and costly at this point (I booked in September and things were mostly booked).

wow nice! I didn’t really check Iceland option that much, because of cost. But would love to go to Iceland some other time! Hope you will have an amazing trip!!!

Yep! Going to Iceland. Plane and hostel paid for.

that’s thoughtful:) will you go to see eclipse as well?

Oh, this was mostly for others, in case they didn't know. Just wanna help how I can.

Thank you for link, but this is not the information im looking for, i know the path an times, but more specific places, how to choose one.

For reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_eclipse_of_August_12,_2026

There's a static image of the path, plus an animated gif of timing.
