Iceland is definitely worth the expense, but the recent credit crisis has impacted the exchange rate for the ISK, and it (the ISK) has lost over 15% in the past 4 weeks.

The exchange rate has gone from 66 ISK/$ at the end of February, to 78 ISK/$ as of today (3/24).

If you are interested, here is a graph of ISK/$ from Landsbankinn:
