1. Try a Google Flights search like this one:

Switching the order of the destinations so that you visit Iceland first, and Switzerland second, also works...

Google Flights: Edmonton to Iceland, and then Iceland to Switzerland, and then back to Edmonton

2. Try using start and end dates that are similar to what you found with a regular roundtrip flight search above.

You can play around with the middle date to give you more or less time in Switzerland or Iceland.

3. You may find that clicking through from Google Flights to the Icelandair website doesn't work for Multi-City flights.

You can try starting your own Multi-City search manually on the Icelandair website.

Or you can try clicking through from Google Flights to Expedia.

Or you can go to Momondo, change the trip type from Return Trip to Multi City, and search for it there.
