Highlights
  • Kerid Crater - The stunning and dramatic red Kerid volcanic crater is the final stop of this tour. Over 6000 years old and approximately 50 meters deep, it features a lake at the bottom.

Hiking around the crater offers a unique experience with its mix of red lava rock, green moss, or white snow in winter.

  • Gullfoss Waterfall - Gullfoss, or the Golden Waterfall, is a magnificent double-drop waterfall. Standing over 30 meters (105 feet) tall, it produces endless sheets of spray as more than a million gallons of water per minute crash into a narrow canyon.

Gullfoss is a natural beauty at any time of the year, with its appearance changing dramatically from season to season and even within the same season.

  • Geysir - At the Geysir geothermal area, we will witness the beauty and power that lies beneath us. This is especially evident when Strokkur (The Churn) erupts into the air. Even though the Great Geysir is dormant, it is still impressive with its blue water surrounded by endless geothermal colors.

  • Fridheimar - We will stop at Friðheimar on our way to Þingvellir National Park, a delightful extra stop. Explore the tomato greenhouse, pet the horses, and visit the bar for tomato soup or one of their various Bloody Marys—or even a tomato beer.

  • Thingvellir National Park - Thingvellir National Park is a unique place in the world. Here, the American and Eurasian tectonic plates are slowly tearing the land apart, which is clearly visible during our stop.

Thingvellir is also significant in Iceland’s cultural and historical life, as it was the site of the world’s oldest parliament, first held here by settlers in 930 AD.

Additional Information

The Golden Circle is Iceland’s top destination and has been for many years, and for good reason. This tour takes you to the incredible Thingvellir National Park, the only place on Earth where you can see two tectonic plates meet above water. The Geysir geothermal area is another highlight, where you can watch the Strokkur hot spring erupt 10 to 30 meters (30 to 100 feet) into the air. But that’s not all—Gullfoss, the Golden Waterfall, is simply breathtaking.

Don’t forget to visit Friðheimar, a tomato and horse farm, where you can even try tomato beer.

Don’t miss out on these amazing sites; book this tour now. A private tour offers the flexibility that larger groups can’t, allowing us to linger longer at spots we enjoy or adjust our plans as needed within the tour schedule.
