What to expect
The tour starts in Reykjavík, traveling in a modern, quiet, and comfortable bus. This tour is 100% carbon neutral. Along the way, take in Iceland’s ever-changing landscapes—rolling farmlands, grazing sheep, Icelandic horses, and distant volcanic peaks.
Visit Friðheimar Greenhouse, where geothermal energy fuels the year-round cultivation of fresh, pesticide-free tomatoes. Step inside the lush greenhouse, taste the famous tomato products, and meet the remarkable Icelandic horse, a breed known for its strength and unique tölt gait.
Experience the raw power of nature at the Geysir Hot Spring Area, home to Strokkur, a geyser that erupts up to 30 meters (98 feet) high every few minutes. Surrounded by bubbling mud pools and steaming earth, this geothermal wonder is a living reminder of Iceland’s fiery origins.
Stand in awe at Gullfoss, the "Golden Falls," one of Iceland’s most breathtaking waterfalls. Here, glacial water cascades into a dramatic canyon, creating misty rainbows on sunny days. The sheer force and beauty of this waterfall have made it a symbol of Iceland’s untamed nature.
Walk between two continents at Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. This is where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates drift apart, slowly reshaping the landscape. Beyond its geological significance, Thingvellir is also the birthplace of Iceland’s democracy, as home to the world’s oldest parliament, founded in 930 AD.
A perfect mix of stunning nature, powerful history, and Icelandic culture, this Golden Circle journey is an unforgettable adventure!
