This private tour in Iceland begins in Reykjavik, the vibrant capital of Iceland. A spacious minibus accommodating up to eight people will pick you up from your hotel on a journey through the stunning landscapes of the Golden Circle.
Led by a knowledgeable local guide, your tour promises to be both informative and enriching. Benefit from insider insights, fascinating trivia, and personalized attention as you explore the highlights of Iceland's most famous route.
In addition, on this private tour, you'll enjoy the flexibility to set your own pace and have more time for stunning photo opportunities without the crowds. Enjoy the freedom to linger at each stop, soaking in the beauty of Iceland's natural scenery at your leisure.
The Golden Circle is home to three main highlights with equally stunning landscapes in between. It's a top destination for those who want an introduction to Iceland's diverse natural attractions.
Begin your Golden Circle adventure at the Thingvellir National Park, where you can walk between the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates. The park is home to unique geological features, the vast Thingvallavatn lake, the fascinating Oxararfoss waterfall, and the oldest parliament in the world called Althing.
Next to explore are the geothermal wonders of the Geysir geothermal area, home to the iconic Strokkur geyser. Strokkur erupts every five to 10 minutes and shoots hot water high into the air. Besides geysers, bubbling hot springs and colorful geothermal pools dot the area.
No visit to the Golden Circle would be complete without a stop at Gullfoss waterfall, one of Iceland's most spectacular natural attractions. Gullfoss, which means "Golden Falls," is known for its wide two-tiered cascade into a narrow canyon. On a sunny day, it's normal to see rainbows above its waters.
While admiring the waterfall, the guide will tell you about its colorful conservation history.
As a bonus destination, your tour includes visiting the fascinating Kerid crater, a volcanic crater lake surrounded by striking red volcanic slopes with patches of vegetation.
In addition to Kerid and the three highlights of the Golden Circle, this experience includes a short trip to the Fridheimar farm for lunch. Fridheimar boasts a vegetable and tomato greenhouse powered by geothermal energy.
While enjoying your delicious meal made with locally grown produce, you can explore on-site to witness unique Icelandic farming practices.
After an enriching experience on the Golden Circle, the guide will drive you back to your hotel in Reykjavik, marking the end of this 10-hour excursion.
