Presentation

  Hi! We're Sara and Ainhoa and we're going to show you our project of the journey to Reykjavik (Iceland) from the 28th March to the 31st March.

First of all, we've been calculating a budget for fourteen people, our class, and on average, we think it's going to be about 800 euros per person.

Flight

Departure: We've planned to take the flight in Bilbo, the 28th at 07:20, so we will meet in the airport at 06:00 . Our arrival in Reykjavik will be at 15:50 owing to the scale we will have to do in Paris (duration of it: 4 hours).

Return: The return to Bilbo will be at 07:40 again with a scale in Paris, a bit longer this time (7 hours) so we'll get to Bilbo at 22:05 .

The price of the flight per person is of 702.80 euros.

*We're sorry about the timetables but they're the only flight we've found for these dates.

Stay

We're going to spend our weekend in a hotel in the centre of Reykjavik in the popular district 101. The hotel's name is Reykjavik4You Apartments which is recommended and well-evaluated. We've booked 3 deluxe apartments (each one for 6 people).
The total price of the stay is 1413 euros, 100 euros per person.
Here we're posting some photos of the hotel:
