This private tour in Iceland opens with a convenient pick-up from your accommodation in Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland. A spacious van or minibus accommodating up to eight guests will serve as your tour vehicle for the next 10 to 11 hours.
For a more immersive experience, your experience is led by a local tour guide. They have insider knowledge of Iceland's history, culture, and the most exciting trivia about the Golden Circle.

First on your itinerary is the Thingvellir National Park, known as the first UNESCO World Heritage Site of Iceland. It's home to the oldest parliament in the world called Althing, where ancient Viking gatherings once occurred.
Here, you can also walk through the dramatic Almannagja gorge, see the Oxararfoss waterfall, and photograph the vast valleys with unique geological features.
Next to explore are the bubbling hot springs, geothermal valleys, and geysers of the Geysir geothermal area. The valley's most notable feature is the Strokkur geyser, which shows dramatic eruptions of hot water high into the air every five to 10 minutes.
Nearby, you'll see the Gullfoss waterfall, the most famous waterfall in the country. The attraction has multiple viewing points where you can admire and photograph the roaring cascade of Gullfoss from a height of 105 feet (32 meters). Depending on the weather and season, you may either witness rainbows or ice sheets surrounding the waterfall.
In addition to these renowned attractions, your private tour includes exclusive experiences that offer a deeper insight into Icelandic culture and traditions.
Indulge in a delicious lunch at the Fridheimar farm in the village of Reykholt. Fridheimar has a unique tomato and vegetable greenhouse powered by geothermal energy throughout the year. Your lunch here is already included in the tour price.
To top off your Golden Circle adventure, your guide will take you for a relaxing geothermal bath at the Hvammsvik hot springs. Hvammsvik boasts eight geothermal pools surrounded by hills and a scenic fjord in West Iceland.
While at the geothermal spa, you can enjoy excellent facilities and amenities, including steam baths, a restaurant, and various water and land activities.
