Check off a bucket-list activity with this fun and exciting West Iceland sightseeing and golfing tour from Reykjavik. This tour is perfect for those looking to visit some popular Icelandic attractions and want to experience golfing in Iceland.
Your fun-filled outing begins in Reykjavik as your tour operator picks you up from a predetermined location in this Icelandic capital. You'll also meet your professional tour guide from Reykjavik, who'll be your primary source of information during the journey.
Aside from playing golf, you'll also visit some prominent West Iceland sights. Thus, wear warm clothes and shoes, as Iceland's weather can be unpredictable and cold.
Deildartunguhver, one of Europe's highest-flowing hot springs, will be your first stop for this tour. The hot spring has a rapid flow rate of 50 gallons (180 liters) per second and helps heat many Icelandic homes in the nearby towns of Borgarnes and Akranes.
While at Deildartunguhver, you can visit Krauma spa to soak and unwind before moving on to your next stop. Krauma's hot waters and pools originate from Deildartunguhver hot springs and are an excellent place to experience an Icelandic geothermal bath.
When you're ready to move on, you'll make your way to the Borgarfjordur fjord, home to two famous waterfalls, Hraunfossar and Barnafoss.
Hraunfossar waterfall, also known as the lava waterfall, is near the Hallmundarhraun lava field. Unlike other waterfalls, whose source is one main stream, Hraunfossar comes from several small streams. Those small streams create a unique effect on this 2,952 feet (900 meters) wide waterfall, making it the perfect backdrop for photos.
Next, you'll make your way to Barnafoss waterfall, less than a minute's ride from Hraunfossar. Barnafoss, or the children's fall, is named after an Icelandic legend about two children that fell into its waters and died. Despite the sad tale, the waterfall is still a sight to behold with its stark image due to its white water running across huge, black rocks.
After experiencing West Iceland's spectacular waterfalls, you'll make your way to the town of Borgarnes. Here, you'll find the most beautiful golf course in Iceland, the Borgarnes Golf Club. The golf course is perfect for a game of nine-hole golf in Iceland, as well as an 18-hole game.
While at the golf course, you'll also have the chance to eat a mouthwatering lunch before playing a round of golf.
Once you've finished your game and witnessed the majestic beauty of West Iceland, you'll return to Reykjavik.
