Description

This day tour with a German-speaking guide in a small group of up to 19 participants is the ideal shore excursion for cruise ship passengers and leads from Reykjavík on the so-called Golden Circle over the Hellisheiði plateau to Hveragerði, where we stop at an earthquake fissure in a shopping center, the Kerið crater, the impressive Gullfoss waterfall, and the Haukadalur geothermal area with the active Strokkur geyser. On the way, we stop at a farm that produces excellent ice cream from its own cows' milk. Here, you can buy ice cream, waffles, and hot drinks, or simply take a look at the cowshed and the nursery with calves. After a short stop at the warm Laugarvatn lake, on whose shores there are hot springs used for baking bread, we reach Þingvellir National Park, where you can experience Icelandic history and plate tectonics. You will visit the beautiful Öxarárfoss waterfall and Almannagjá, where the Alþing parliament, founded in 930, used to meet. On the way back, if the ship's departure time allows, we will make a short detour through downtown Reykjavík with a photo stop at Hallgrímskirkja. The departure time and tour duration are suitable for most cruise ships in the port of Reykjavík, e.g., ships from Aida, Mein Schiff, MSC, and Costa. The tour usually lasts 8-9 hours, but this depends on the weather conditions and the ship's layover time and may therefore be slightly shorter.
