Golden Circle Wonders & Farm Life Arrival

Kerid Crater - Kerið — a stunning volcanic crater filled with vibrant blue-green water, surrounded by red lava rock. Unlike most craters, it’s easily accessible, allowing visitors to walk along the rim or descend to the lake below. A colorful, photogenic stop that is unique to Iceland’s landscape.

Gullfoss Waterfall - Gullfoss — the ‘Golden Falls’ that lend the Golden Circle its name. Here, glacial water from Langjökull cascades in two dramatic tiers into a rugged canyon, sending spray high into the air. On sunny days, rainbows often appear in the mist, making this one of Iceland’s most iconic and unforgettable sights.

Geysir - Geysir Geothermal Area — the original source of the word ‘geyser.’ Although the Great Geysir itself is now mostly dormant, nearby Strokkur erupts every few minutes, shooting steaming water up to 30 meters into the sky. The bubbling pools and sulfur-scented steam vents make this a living showcase of Iceland’s geothermal power.

Thingvellir - Þingvellir — a UNESCO World Heritage Site where nature and history converge. Walk between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates in Almannagjá gorge, and stand on the site where Iceland’s first parliament, the Alþingi, was founded in 930 AD. A place of breathtaking beauty and immense cultural importance.

Hvassafell II - Hvassafell — your countryside retreat in West Iceland. After a day of exploring, arrive at our family farm for an evening of country romance: cuddle our sheep, hug our gentle horses, and experience the tranquility of rural life. You’ll stay overnight in a private three-bedroom apartment on the farm, with cozy touches and a farm-fresh breakfast included. A uniquely personal Icelandic experience found nowhere else.

Silver Circle Highlights & Countryside Charm

Grabrok Crater - Grábrók Crater — an easy hike with a big reward. Climb the wooden steps to the rim of this ancient volcanic crater and enjoy sweeping views over lava fields and valleys of West Iceland. A unique opportunity to walk atop a volcano.

Glanni Waterfall - Glanni Waterfall — a hidden gem of West Iceland, where a broad cascade tumbles over ancient lava rocks. Legend says it’s the home of elves and trolls, adding a touch of magic to this peaceful stop.

Deildartunguhver Thermal Spring - Deildartunguhver — Europe’s most powerful hot spring, where steaming water gushes from the earth.

Hraunfossar Lava Waterfall - Hraunfossar — unlike any other waterfall in Iceland, where glacial rivers emerge from beneath a vast lava field, cascading in countless streams across black volcanic rock. A unique, dreamlike sight you won’t find anywhere else in the country.

Reykholt - Reykholt — a historic cultural center of Iceland, once home to the medieval writer and chieftain Snorri Sturluson. Here you can explore the remains of Snorri’s farm, his hot spring bath ‘Snorralaug,’ and learn about Iceland’s sagas and political history. Blending heritage, literature, and geothermal charm, Reykholt offers a unique window into the past while surrounded by the peaceful countryside of West Iceland.
