Description
Explore some of the most famous attractions in Iceland and relax in a geothermal spa on this full-day private Golden Circle tour. Travelers who want to visit the Gullfoss waterfall, Thingvellir National Park, and Geysir geothermal area with a private guide and unwind in a spa will love this combination tour.
The excursion begins at your accommodation in Reykjavik, where your driver-guide will collect you at about 8:00. You'll board the comfortable minibus and start your journey toward the Thingvellir National Park, the first destination on the Golden Circle sightseeing route.
The minibus has free onboard Wi-Fi to stay connected during the trip. Take photos of the scenery you see and post them straight to your Instagram story or send them to family members back home.
Since this trip is private, you can ask your guide as many questions as you like throughout the day. You won't have to wait for other guests to set off, and you can enjoy a more personalized experience.
Thingvellir National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its geological and historical significance. In 930 AD, the world's first democratic parliament was formed here.
It's a fascinating place with incredible geographical features. Explore the area and see the Mid-Atlantic Rift, where two tectonic plates pull apart.
Next, you'll visit Gullfoss waterfall, one of Iceland's most breathtaking natural wonders. "Gullfoss" means "Golden Falls," which gives the Golden Circle sightseeing route its name.
Continuing your exploration, you'll arrive at the Geysir geothermal area, home to the Strokkur geyser. Strokkur erupts every five to 10 minutes, sending jets of hot water into the air in a dramatic display.
By now, you've probably worked up quite an appetite, making this a great time to stop for lunch.
Your driver will take you to a local tomato farm, where you can enjoy delicious, freshly cooked food in the beautiful dining room. If you inform the farm beforehand, they can cater to dietary requirements.
Most Golden Circle tours finish after three attractions, but your journey will continue after lunch.
Your driver will take you to the stunning Kerid crater, a crater lake surrounded by red volcanic rock. Walk around the rim and gaze down at the vivid blue waters below.
Finally, you'll head to the Laugarvatn Fontana geothermal spa to end your tour. Unwinding in the natural geothermal waters is the ideal way to end your Golden Circle adventure. After a soothing soak, the driver will take you back to your accommodation in Reykjavik, where you can spend the evening at your leisure.
On this full-day tour, explore the Golden Circle sightseeing route and a luxurious geothermal spa with a private guide. Check availability now by choosing a date.
