Itinerary

  • Arctic Adventures (Pass By)

    Your adventure day tour starts with an afternoon Reykjavik pick up. From the capital you will head towards your first sightseeing stop of the day, Thingvellir National Park.

  • Thingvellir National Park

    Thingvellir is rich in both gelogy and history, being the place where the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates are going a part as well as holding the oldest existing parliatment in the worldd, Althingi which was founded there in the year of 930. Drink in the true beauty and power of mother nature at this wonderful national Park before continuing to your next stop, Geysir hot spring area.

    40 minutes

  • Geysir

    Geysir is all about spouting geysers. Here you will get to experience Strokkur geysir spout water up to 25 - 40 m up in the air. It is an experience like no other, stunning but incredible moment so make sure to bring your camera along. Strokkur erupts every 8 - 10 minutes.

    30 minutes

  • Gullfoss Waterfall

    The final highlight of your Golden Circle sightseeing adventure is the magical Gullfoss Waterfall, better known as the Golden Falls. Gullfoss is the most popular waterfall in Iceland and for a good reason, this beautiful waterfall drops 32 m in two stages providing you with some great photo opportunities. After admiring the breathtaking beauty of Gullfoss Waterfall you will start making your way back to Reykjavik where your tour ends. You can expect to be back in Reykjavik at around 18:00 PM.

    40 minutes

  • Kerid Crater

    Kerið crater, a geological wonder formed over 6,500 years ago, is the result of a volcanic eruption that caused a cone-shaped volcano to collapse, leaving behind the striking crater we see today. Over time, the crater filled with water, creating a beautiful blue lake within its caldera. The vibrant blue-green waters and the contrasting red volcanic rock make Kerið a must-see destination. The caldera spans 886 feet (270 meters) in diameter, with steep walls reaching up to 180 feet (55 meters) high. From the crater rim, you can enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding landscape and distant mountains on clear days. For a closer look, take a 20-minute loop hike around the lake to capture stunning photos and fully appreciate the crater's mesmerizing blue waters. In summer, the red volcanic rocks contrast beautifully with the green moss. In winter, you'll be enchanted by the snow-covered slopes and the frozen lake, making Kerið a year-round wonder.

Brilliant tour.

Published on Feb, 2025

Picked up at the hotel at correct time, from the start to the end was wonderful, out guide was brilliant in his knowledge and care to the tour was good. I think the only downside was less time at the spots especially if you are a photographer and want that “shot” but that’s my only personal issue, other than that it was perfect for seeing everything listed and enjoyed every moment!

Great whistle-stop tour, highly recommend

Published on Feb, 2025

Excellent trip around the geological sights near Reykjavik, including geysers, waterfall, tectonic plates, etc. The minibus was warm and comfortable and our guide was really knowledgeable and friendly. Plenty of time to see the sights with rest breaks included.

Great guide, amazing sights

Published on Feb, 2025

The entire afternoon was amazing. Guna brought us to some absolutely beautiful sights, her commentary was very interesting and she made sure we knew exactly where we were going and how to meet up with her again. The scenery speaks for itself, but the tour was well worth it. We loved Geysir with Kerid Crater a very close second.

Fun Day, Great Tour

Published on Feb, 2025

This was a great tour, good length of time to keep my 11yo interested and got to see some beautiful sites. Hjörtur was a fantastic host; funny, knowledgeable, and even got us to another activity right on time after the tour! Much appreciated. Recommend this trip for those looking to see a good amount of Iceland in a short amount of time.
