Itinerary
The Golden Circle is the most iconic destination from Reykjavik. On this route you will enjoy beautiful scenery and visit Iceland's three famous spots: Geysir geothermal area, Gullfoss waterfall and Thingvellir national park.
The Thingvellir are both historically and geologically a important location. Here was the first icelandic parliament founded in the late 900s and this is also the a visible division between the eurasian and the north american continental plates.
Strokkur is the little brother or the famous Geysir which not active anymore. Strokkur though is still very active blowing water up into the air every 7 to 10 minutes. At this stop can you also purchase food.
Gullfoss is a waterfall of the White River Hvítá. It has two steps of 11 and 21 meters and there are pulling more 100 m3 water through it at a second.
Kerið is an iconic volcanic crater of 55 meters depth.
Perhaps the highlight of the day is the time you will spend at the world renowned Blue Lagoon Spa. This natural wonder is famous for its healing waters and you will leave feeling renewed and reinvigorated.

Golden Circle
Absolutely amazing experience! I thoroughly enjoyed this Golden Circle tour and would highly recommend it if you only have a short time in Iceland. You get to see so much in just one day, and it felt like excellent value for money. The scenery was incredible, the stops were well planned, and everything ran smoothly. A fantastic way to experience some of Iceland’s most beautiful sights in a single trip!
Amazing and hot
One of the best tour specially Blue Lagoon experience was awesome. While Geysir was icing on the cake
Awesome day spent @iceland with Kubas
Really enjoyed the Golden Circle and Blue Lagoon tour. Kubas was a great guide — very polite, friendly and never rushed the group. He gave us enough time at every stop to properly enjoy the place, take photos and relax. The whole trip was smooth and well managed. The volcano crater views were beautiful, Golden Circle spots were amazing and ending the day at Blue Lagoon was honestly perfect. Kubas also shared nice information during the drive and kept the atmosphere comfortable throughout the tour. Overall a very memorable experience in Iceland. Highly recommend this tour.
