Complete 8-Hour Golden Circle and Sky Lagoon Combo Tour from Reykjavik

Embark on this eight-hour tour that takes you from Reykjavik to Iceland’s Golden Circle and the magical Sky Lagoon. Those who want to see the essential sites of Iceland and wish to visit a stunning geothermal spa will love this combo tour. 

This Iceland sightseeing tour starts in Reykjavik, where you will be picked up from your hotel or one of the many pick-up spots around the city. You’ll also meet your English-speaking guide, who’ll be your main source of information during the tour. After pick-up, you and your tour group will leave Reykjavik in a comfortable vehicle. 

The weather in Iceland can be cold, so wear warm and appropriate clothing. Since you’ll be visiting the Sky Lagoon, you can bring your swimsuit or rent one in the spa. The tour does not include snacks and drinks, so bring some to energize yourself while exploring the best of Iceland. 

Your group tour will first travel to the Golden Circle, a popular route in Iceland east of the capital. The Golden Circle is home to some of the top places in Iceland, starting from the Thingvellir National Park, which is 30 miles (47 kilometers) from Reykjavik.  

The Thingvellir National Park is a UNESCO site in Iceland with a significant cultural and geological role. Its cultural significance is due to it being home to the Vikings’ Althingi parliament, believed to be the longest-running parliament in the world. The national park is also a geological wonder, as it’s the only place where two tectonic plates are visible above the ground. 

Next up on your sightseeing in Iceland tour is the Geysir geothermal area, which is home to the Strokkur geyser. Strokkur is one of the most iconic geysers in Iceland and erupts every five to ten minutes. This interval allows visitors of the geyser to witness the breathtaking columns of hot water shoot up into the sky. 

Another stop you’ll make on the Golden Circle is the Gullfoss waterfall, or “the Golden Falls.” This waterfall is so beautiful that seeing it in person will take your breath away, aside from being an excellent subject for photos. 

Your final stop of the Golden Circle before visiting the Sky Lagoon is the lesser-known Kerid crater, famous for its vivid azure lake. 

Finally, you’ll visit the Sky Lagoon and experience the wonders of geothermal bathing in Iceland for more than an hour. The lagoon’s geothermal water stays warm all year round and is said to have healing properties. 

After relaxing in the most famous geothermal spa in Iceland, you’ll return to Reykjavik, and the tour will end. 

Spend the day sightseeing in the Golden Circle, and end your day relaxing at the Sky Lagoon, with a convenient pick-up from Reykjavik. Check availability now by choosing a date.
