Creator's Key Takeaways

The biggest con though is time. The great thing about the cruise is you get to do a t you get a ton of leisure time because you don't have to do the driving to get to the next spot. But since you're not driving, you have limited port time.

The ring road is basically Iceland's version of Route 66. It goes all the way around the island. It's about 800 miles.

If you're the kind of traveler that wants variety doesn't mind being behind the wheel, it's honestly one of the best trips you could take.

Cruise if you want ease and structure. Road trip if you want adventure and flexibility.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check port times on cruises and choose stops with at least 7 hours.
Fly in the day before your cruise to avoid travel issues.
Be comfortable with driving in unpredictable conditions for road trips.
