3 in 1 Bundle Discount | Golden Circle & The Secret Lagoon, Snaefellsnes & Jokulsarlon

On your second day, you will again head out from the capital, this time around to witness the number one attraction in Iceland, the Golden Circle. Upon visiting the sites of this route, you will immediately understand their acclaim as you behold the power of the earth itself beneath your feet.

But before your exploration, get ready for some relaxation. Treat your body, mind, and soul with a soak in the geothermal and mineral-rich waters of the Secret Lagoon in the municipality of Flúðir. This lagoon is the lesser-known counterpart to the Blue Lagoon, an entirely different experience but just as rewarding.

After emerging from the healing waters of the hot springs, get ready to head to the Geysir geothermal area in Haukadalur Valley, where the fountain geyser Strokkur actively spouts boiling water into the sky every few minutes.

Afterward, you will witness the unharnessed power of Gullfoss Falls, a majestic waterfall that leaves everybody in awe of its splendor. The falls are protected by Icelandic law as the natural gem that they are - keep an eye out for the stone mural of the woman who threatened to throw herself down them for their protection.

Your day will conclude with an exploration of Þingvellir National Park, a geologically and historically fascinating site. The park is located in the continental rift between the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates and was the location of Iceland’s first parliament.

At the end of your day, you will get shipped back to Reykjavík City for the night. Don’t forget to explore the urban life of the small but bustling capital before retreating to your accommodation.

On the last day of your all-around excursion combo, you will explore the wonders of Iceland’s South Coast, where fire meets ice and natural pearls are plentiful. Heading out from Reykjavík, you will drive along the coastline until reaching the glacier lagoon Jökulsárlón.

The lagoon offers a unique scenery of serenity, as large icebergs traveling from Vatnajökull, Europe’s largest ice cap, gather to float in the ice-cold waters in an ever-changing display. The tour includes the additional delight of a boat ride amongst the glaciers, bringing you closer to their allure and to the resident seals that call the lagoon home.

In fair weather, you will also get a splendid view of the infamous Eyjafjallajökull en route, the glacier volcano that so memorably erupted back in 2010. As you get back on the bus to head back, you will be stopping to visit the gorgeous waterfall Seljalandsfoss.

This stunning natural feature cascades in front of a large cavern, providing excellent photo opportunities as well as the added bonus of having a path that lets you walk behind it to look out through the tapestry of water from the inside of the mountain. 

At the end of the day, you will be shipped back to Reykjavík one last time, knowing that you have just explored the most diverse sights of the country in just three days.
