Reykjavik pick up
This morning you’ll be picked up in Reykjavik by your designated driver-guide who will take you on your multiday adventure.
Þingvellir national park
Our first stop on the iconic Golden Circle route is Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2004. As you enter, you'll be greeted by the breathtaking Almannagjá gorge, offering a glimpse into the Earth's geological history. Here, along the European American fault line, visible evidence of plate tectonics reveals itself, showcasing the ongoing separation of the two continents and the formation of Iceland, the world's youngest country.
Geysir geothermal area
Continuing our journey, we arrive at Geysir, lending its name to the phenomenon of spouting hot springs. Prepare to be mesmerized by the mighty Strokkur geyser, which erupts with remarkable regularity, offering an awe-inspiring display every few minutes. Surrounding Strokkur are an array of geothermal features, including fumaroles, mud pools, and smaller geysers, along with the impressive but dormant Geysir itself.
Gullfoss waterfalls
Our journey through the Golden Circle leads us to Gullfoss, Iceland's breathtaking Golden Waterfall. Here, the Langjökull glacier's meltwater crashes into the Hvítá river gorge, creating a dramatic display of power and beauty. With its distinct curves and golden hues, Gullfoss mesmerizes visitors, leaving them in awe of nature's grandeur. Feel the spray on your face and hear the roar of the water as rainbows dance in the mist. Gullfoss is a testament to Iceland's raw beauty and a reminder of nature's strength.
