Your experience

Explore Iceland’s iconic Golden Circle

This full-day tour invites you on a comprehensive journey through Iceland’s most celebrated natural sights – perfect for first-time visitors or anyone seeking a scenic, hassle-free day out. Begin with a convenient pick-up from select locations in Reykjavik. Relax aboard an air-conditioned coach as your expert guide introduces the day’s highlights against the backdrop of volcanic landscapes, open plains and winding rivers.

Thingvellir National Park

Begin your adventure at Thingvellir National Park, the only UNESCO World Heritage Site on the Icelandic mainland. Here, stand between two continents where the American and Eurasian tectonic plates drift apart, shaping dramatic rift valleys and deep fissures in the volcanic earth. Experience the area’s rich history as the site of Iceland’s first parliament, the Althing, founded in 930 AD. Take in panoramic views of Lake Þingvallavatn, the country’s largest natural lake, and enjoy opportunities for short walks and striking photos of this geological wonderland.

Geysir Geothermal Area

Continue towards the heart of Iceland’s geothermal region. Here, Strokkur geyser erupts boiling water high into the air every 6 to 10 minutes. Watch the spectacular eruptions and explore the surrounding field dotted with bubbling mud pools and steaming vents. Listen as your guide shares stories of Iceland’s geothermal wonders and discover what makes this region so unique for earth sciences and Icelandic folklore.

Gullfoss Waterfall

Your final major stop is Gullfoss, Iceland’s ‘Golden Falls’. Witness glacial water from the nearby Langjökull glacier plunging dramatically into a rugged canyon below. Sunlight often creates vivid rainbows in the waterfall’s mist, offering memorable photo opportunities. Stroll along marked footpaths for different views and savor the energy of this natural spectacle.
