Embark on this unforgettable three-day tour and explore some of Iceland’s most stunning natural wonders while chasing the northern lights. This trip is ideal for travelers looking to make the most of their time in Iceland by combining the Golden Circle, South Coast, and Glacier Lagoon into one seamless adventure.
Over the course of three days, you’ll explore the island's most famous landmarks, from powerful waterfalls to massive glaciers, with two nights spent in the scenic countryside near the town of Vik, where you’ll be far from the city lights, increasing your chances of witnessing the magical northern lights.
Your journey begins in Reykjavik, where you will be conveniently picked up from your accommodation or nearby bus stop.
On the first day, the route you will take is the iconic Golden Circle, starting with Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates meet in Iceland.
Next, you’ll visit the Geysir geothermal area, where the Strokkur geyser erupts every five to ten minutes, and the nearby stunning Gullfoss waterfall, where the Hvita river plunges into a dramatic canyon.
On the first day, you will also visit the impressive and unique Fridheimar tomato greenhouse. A farm and restaurant known for using geothermal energy to grow tomatoes and cucumbers in Iceland before ending the day near Vik in your comfortable countryside hotel.
On the second day, you’ll travel east toward the world-famous Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon, where you will marvel at icebergs floating peacefully in the glacial waters. On route, you will see the beautiful Skaftafell Nature Reserve, a region known for its stunning glacier tongues, waterfalls, and hiking trails.
You will also explore the beautiful Diamond beach, where shimmering ice rests on the black sand, creating a surreal scene. After a full day of exploration, you’ll return to your countryside hotel near Vik, offering another opportunity to spot the northern lights if the conditions are right.
On the third day, you’ll journey back to Reykjavik along the South Coast, stopping at the most famous locations on the south, such as Reynisfjara black sand beach, known for its striking basalt columns and sea stacks, the impressive Skogafoss waterfall, where rainbows often form in the mist, and Seljalandsfoss, which allows you to walk behind the waterfall for a unique view.
Before arriving in Reykjavik, you will have the option of bathing in the stunning Blue Lagoon, a warm geothermal pool that is a perfect way to end your adventure, soaking in the rejuvenating water.
Throughout the tour, your accommodation and transportation are taken care of, so you can fully focus on enjoying the scenery and beautiful nature without worrying about driving during winter or finding a hotel.
