Description

The Golden Circle combines 3 of Iceland’s most popular sights: Gullfoss waterfall The golden waterfall is in the canyon of Hvítá and nothing short of a spectacular scenic view. Geysir Geysir is arguably the most famous hot spring in Iceland which erupts every 5-8 minutes or so. Make sure to have your camera ready to catch that amazing natural phenomenon. Þingvellir National Park Last but certainly not least, Þingvellir National Park is an area of tremendous historical importance for Iceland. It’s where the first parliament was established in 930 AD. Not only is it a scenic beauty but you’ll be exploring one of the longest-running political establishments in Europe. The tour also includes: Faxi waterfall a waterfall you can get so close to that you can almost touch it! Extra stops: If time permits, we instruct our guides to stop by a couple of photogenic horses and even to stop by Efsti Dalur farm, where you can try some delicious ice cream. Your pickup will start at 8:30 am in downtown Reykjavík. During the day, horses, ice cream, geysirs, elves, trolls, and a whole host of interesting things await you! This tour is perfect for everyone who is looking for a relaxing, easy-going day trip that is smack full of amazing scenery and photogenic stops.
