Description

Discover the Golden Circle on a private tour from Reykjavik. Visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Þingvellir National Park, see the geysers at Geysir, and marvel at the Gullfoss Waterfall. Start your day with a pick-up from your hotel in Reykjavik. Head to the Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2004. Witness the visible evidence of the North American and Eurasian plates pulling apart, a process that continues to shape Iceland's dramatic landscape. Continue to the amazing Þingvallavatn lake, which provides a unique opportunity to explore the dynamic forces that have formed Iceland, the world's youngest country, while also delving into its rich cultural heritage. Next, visit the iconic Geysir, a name synonymous with the phenomenon of spouting hot springs. Prepare to be mesmerized by the mighty Strokkur geyser, a natural wonder that erupts with remarkable regularity, offering an awe-inspiring display of nature's power every few minutes. As you gather around Strokkur, anticipation builds with each rumble and hiss, until suddenly, with a mighty roar, the geyser erupts in a spectacular display of steam and water, reaching impressive heights that defy gravity. Witness the raw energy of the Earth unleashed before your eyes. Surrounding Strokkur are an array of other geothermal features, each one more fascinating than the last. From bubbling mud pools to steaming fumaroles and smaller geysers, the landscape is alive with the sights, sounds, and smells of Iceland's volcanic activity. Looming over it all is the impressive but dormant Geysir itself, a reminder of the immense power that lies beneath the Earth's surface. Though it may no longer spout with the same frequency as its counterpart, its presence serves as a testament to the ever-changing nature of Iceland's geothermal landscape, where new wonders are always waiting to be discovered. Continue to the Gullfoss Waterfall, where the meltwater from the massive Langjökull glacier crashes into the Hvítá river gorge, creating a dramatic and unforgettable display of power and beauty. As the water plummets in two distinct stages, it creates a stunning spectacle of swirling currents and misty spray. With its unique curves and golden hues, Gullfoss captivates visitors, leaving them in awe of nature's grandeur. Stand at the edge of the gorge, feel the cool spray on your face, and hear the thunderous roar of the cascading water. On sunny days, rainbows often dance in the mist, adding a touch of magic to the scene. Gullfoss is a testament to Iceland's raw beauty and a powerful reminder of nature's strength and majesty, making it a highlight of any visit to the Golden Circle.
