Thingvellir National Park, Geysir geothermal area, and Gullfoss waterfall are the three natural attractions that make up the Golden Circle and no visitor to Iceland should miss visiting these beautiful sights. 

On this tour, you will not only see the three essential sights. In addition to that, you will get to snorkel in the crystal clear waters of Silfra Fissure, found within Þingvellir National Park. 

The tour starts when you are picked up in Reykjavík and whisked away to the fissure Silfra. After receiving a drysuit and other snorkelling equipment, you’ll enter the water and will undoubtedly be awestruck by the incredibly bright blue colours of the fissure. You’ll be snorkelling between continents as Þingvellir National Park is neither located on the Eurasian nor the North American tectonic plates, but in a rift valley between. 

After your journey through Silfra, it is time to explore the rest of Þingvellir, with its beautiful canyons and lava fields. Þingvellir is also the birthplace of Iceland’s parliament as it was here where the Viking settlers would gather to set the laws of the land. 

From Þingvellir you’ll visit the geothermal area of Geysir where you’ll see bubbling mud pools, steaming and hot springs, as well as the mighty geyser Strokkur which erupts every 5-10 minutes. Then, it is off to the stunning waterfall Gullfoss where you’ll watch as glacial water from Langjökull glacier, hurls down in two ‘steps’ into an ancient canyon.

Then it is off to some hidden treasures found near the Golden Circle route, an aquamarine lake inside a crater which is made up of red volcanic rocks.

Mix sightseeing and adventure with this fun-filled day tour. Travel to some of the best sites in Iceland in a small group and create memories that will last a lifetime and receive free photos at the end of your tour at absolutely no extra cost. Check availability by choosing a date.
