Description

Explore the sights of the famous Golden Circle sightseeing route by booking this incredible guided excursion. Those eager to see waterfalls, geothermal areas, and national parks should book this small-group tour now.

Your tour starts when you are picked up from the meeting point in Reykjavik. You will meet your expert English-speaking guide and the other guests on the tour. 

This excursion is a small group tour with a maximum of 12 guests, so you will have plenty of opportunities to ask questions and get to know your group. 

The tour's first stop is the Thingvellir National Park. Thingvellir National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its geological, cultural, and historical significance. 

It's where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates meet, creating unique rift valleys and dramatic landscapes. The park is also the birthplace of Althingi, Iceland's parliament, established in 930 AD, making it a cornerstone of the country's history. 

Visitors can explore hiking trails and Thingvallavatn, Iceland's largest natural lake. The Thingvellir National Park combines natural beauty with a deep connection to Iceland's heritage, making it a must-visit destination.

You'll also stop at the Geysir geothermal area. The Geysir geothermal area is a hub of geothermal activity and is home to the famous Strokkur geyser. 

The Strokkur geyser erupts every 5-10 minutes, shooting water up to 100 feet (30 meters) into the air, providing an impressive natural display. The area features bubbling hot springs, steaming vents, and mineral-rich pools, showcasing Iceland's volcanic landscape. 

While the Great Geysir, the namesake of all geysers, is dormant primarily, its historical significance adds to the site's appeal. Visitors can enjoy walking paths with clear views of the geothermal features.

The last stop on the Golden Circle sightseeing route is the Gullfoss waterfall. Gullfoss waterfall is a two-tiered cascade plunging into a rugged canyon. Fed by the Hvita river, it offers impressive views and a powerful display of natural force. 

A viewing platform provides easy access to this iconic attraction, which showcases Iceland's dramatic landscapes and hydropower potential.

You'll also stop for a late lunch at the Fridheimar tomato farm, where you can enjoy tomato-based dishes like soup, pasta, pizza, homemade bread, and Bloody Marys. You can also meet the charming Icelandic horse here.

At the end of the tour, your driver will take you back to the meeting point in Reykjavik.

Don't miss this incredible experience exploring the Golden Circle sights of the Thingvellir National Park, Geysir geothermal area, and Gullfoss waterfall. Check availability now by choosing a date.
