What it’s really like to join a Vegan group tour to Iceland as a non-Vegan
Description
What happens when two self-proclaimed homebodies—one of whom isn’t even vegan—decide to take a leap of faith on a fully plant-based group tour around Iceland? In this episode of the Veggies Abroad Vegan Travel Podcast, host Rebecca Gade Sawicki reconnects with Nathan and Ashley, two travelers who joined her recent Iceland adventure, to unpack what made the trip unforgettable—from surprise puffin sightings and foot-soaking waterfalls to some seriously unexpected vegan food highlights (yes, even at gas stations!).
Nathan shares his initial hesitation about joining a vegan group tour as an omnivore and picky eater (spoiler alert: he’s now a fan of chickpea soup and Icelandic vegan cheese), while Ashley confesses her pre-trip tattoo research and the real reason they chose Iceland in the first place. The pair dish on the joys of group travel, wild karaoke sessions in the van, and why Reykjavík gave off big city vibes in the best way possible.
Expect honest reflections, hilarious moments (hello, seaweed snacks from hell), and a peek at what it’s really like to travel through a country with little vegetation and still find incredible plant-based meals.
