Private 7-Hour Sightseeing Tour of the Golden Circle with Transfer from Reykjavik

Discover the magic of the Golden Circle sightseeing route on this immersive private tour from Reykjavik. This tour is perfect for travelers who want to see the highlights of Iceland with an expert local guide all to themselves.

The tour begins at your accommodation in Reykjavik, where your guide and driver will collect you. Private excursions are just for you and your group.

You can ask as many questions as you like and receive detailed explanations. The tour can also be tailored to your needs.

Your first stop is the magnificent Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Here, you'll witness the incredible geological formations of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates are separating a little more each year. The national park is also the site of the world's first parliament, Althing, founded in 930 AD.

Next up is Bruarfoss waterfall, a hidden gem not typically included in standard Golden Circle tours. This picturesque cascade has vibrant blue waters contrasting beautifully with the surrounding landscape. It's off the beaten path but worth the visit for its unique beauty.

Then, it's off to the Geysir geothermal area, home to the famous Strokkur geyser. Watch as it shoots boiling water and steam into the air, a natural spectacle that never fails to impress.

It erupts every five to 10 minutes, so you'll have plenty of opportunities to capture the moment on your camera.

After the Geysir geothermal area, you'll head to Gullfoss waterfall, one of Iceland's most iconic natural attractions. Feel the power of nature as you admire the rushing water cascading down two tiers into the rugged canyon below.

Your private tour includes two additional stops as well as the three famous Golden Circle sights.

One is the Kerid crater, a stunning volcanic crater lake surrounded by brightly-colored red volcanic rock. Stroll around the rim and learn more about Iceland's volcanic power.

Your tour concludes with a visit to the town of Hveragerdi. This settlement is known for its geothermal hot springs and greenhouses, used to grow fresh fruit and vegetables for locals.

Take some time to explore the town's charming streets and pick up a pastry from one of the numerous bakeries here.

At the end of the tour, your guide will take you back to your accommodation in Reykjavik, ready to continue your adventures in Iceland.
