Description

Golden Circle Route: Immerse yourself in Iceland's captivating Golden Circle: delve into history at Thingvellir National Park, witness the raw power and beauty of Gullfoss waterfall, and wander among the active, bubbling geothermal pools at Geysir Geothermal Area. Thingvellir National Park Step into the profound history and captivating geology of Thingvellir National Park, a designated UNESCO World Heritage site. Here, you'll walk the very grounds where Icelandic democracy was born, and explore sites linked to Viking-era justice, including the solemn Drowning Pool and Gallows Rock. Beyond its compelling past, Thingvellir showcases a dramatic landscape where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates slowly separate, forming stunning cliffs and expansive fields, home to Thingvallavatn, Iceland's largest natural lake. Geysir Discover the Geysir Geothermal Area in Haukadalur, a vibrant landscape teeming with geothermal activity. Witness everything from hissing steam vents to bubbling mud pits, but the true stars are the geysers themselves. This is home to The Great Geysir, the original, for which all other geysers worldwide are named. Prepare to be captivated by Strokkur, the area's most active geyser, which erupts every few minutes, sending superheated water high into the air. Gullfoss Waterfall Unquestionably the most popular waterfall in Iceland, Gullfoss—the 'Golden Falls'—stands out even in a country boasting thousands of cascades. Widely considered one of Iceland's most beautiful and certainly one of its largest, Gullfoss is a spectacle of nature's power. Feel the exhilarating roar of the Hvítá River as it plunges 32 meters over two tiers into the dramatic gorge below. On sunny days, countless rainbows dance in the rising mist, adding to its ethereal beauty. With various paths, including one leading close to the base, remember your raincoat and have your camera ready to capture this magnificent wonder. Why choose this tour ? Enjoy ultimate comfort, privacy, and personalization. Avoid crowds, maximize your time, and gain deep insights from your guide. Your unforgettable Icelandic journey starts here.
