The Þingvellir National Park
The Golden Circle is celebrated for its proximity to Reykjavík and its wealth of diverse landscapes, history, and geological marvels. Our journey begins with a visit to Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site steeped in both historical and geological significance. Walk through the very spot where Iceland's first parliament was established in 930 A.D., and marvel at the meeting point of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, creating a breathtaking rift valley where you can quite literally stroll between continents. A short, easy hike will take you to the picturesque Öxarárfoss waterfall, a rare human-made feature created in the 10th century to provide water for parliament gatherings.
Farms in Iceland
Next, we stop at Efstidalur Dairy Farm, a delightful family-run gem where you’ll savor homemade, organic ice cream while taking in sweeping views of Mount Hekla. This is also a perfect chance to interact with friendly Icelandic animals, including cows, horses, and dogs, making it a favorite for families and nature lovers alike.
The Geysir Geothermal area
Our adventure continues at the Geysir geothermal area, where you’ll witness the spectacular eruptions of Strokkur geyser, shooting boiling water high into the air every 5–7 minutes.
The tour then leads to the awe-inspiring Gullfoss Waterfall, often hailed as one of Iceland's most powerful and mesmerizing natural attractions. Feel the spray and hear the roar of this two-tiered waterfall as it cascades into a deep canyon, a sight you won’t soon forget.
A great lunch stop
For lunch, we make a stop at the Friðheimar Tomato Farm (lunch not included), a unique culinary experience where you can enjoy fresh dishes surrounded by lush tomato plants.
Kerið Crater lake
Our final highlight is the stunning Kerið Crater Lake, a 3,000-year-old volcanic caldera with vivid, otherworldly colors. Admire the contrast of the red volcanic rock and bright blue waters, and take in the serene beauty of this geological wonder.
This tour combines nature, culture, and history, offering stories and insights as you travel through Iceland’s iconic Golden Circle in a comfortable minibus.
