YPT tours to the Principality of Islandia

YPT are pleased to announce our full program of Principality of Islandia Tours for 2025 and 2026! Not a real country you say? Islandia means Iceland in Spanish – well we don’t care it is our island and very much our country.

The brainchild of YPT founder and CEO Gareth Johnson in 2008, it was launched in 2018 with the aim of crowdfunding people to buy an island and create a country. This was achived in 2019 and since then the story has gone very viral.

Plans are to build a resort, as well as the country, but until then we offer tours and travel to a private island – you can read more about the project here.

Group Tours to The Principality of Islandia

Right now we offer one yearly group tour to Islandia, which also sees us take on Belize overland.

Belize Overland and Islandia Tour – June 14th – 17th/23th 2025 – $445/$1895

Come for the weekend to Islandia, or better still for the whole week and see Belize too. And yes we do count them as two different countries. Discounts for members, citizens and return pioneers.

Independent Tours to The Principality of Islandia

OK, so our group tours don’t fit your needs, so why not rent out our island? It might sounds far fetched, but we offer some of the best private island based deals that there are on the market.

For more information on private island tours get in touch, we will be more than happy to help.
