Overview

The Golden Circle tour includes some of the most popular attractions in Iceland. The picturesque volcanic crater Kerid, the powerful and popular Gullfoss waterfall, the astonishing geothermal area of Geysir. Thingvellir the historic National Park which sits between the Eurasian and American tectonic plates and then head back to Reykjavik.

This tour gives you a little bit of everything Iceland has to offer, craters, lava, waterfalls and geothermal sites along with historic places as well. Starting with the crater Kerdid, then heading to Geysir the geothermal area and then to the magnificent waterfall of Gullfoss. If you like ice cream we will stop by family run farm Efstidalur ll for a taste of their home made ice cream. Thingvellir would be our last stop in the tour which is a National park and where the oldest parliament in the world was established before heading back to Reykjavik. This tour varies from 7-8 hours depending on traffic and weather conditions.
