Private 11-Hour Golden Circle Tour from Reykjavik with Hot Spring Bathing at the Sky Lagoon

Embark on an incredible full-day trip to Iceland's top attractions and enjoy hot spring bathing in the luxurious Sky Lagoon geothermal spa. Travelers seeking an exclusive private experience should book this Golden Circle and Sky Lagoon combination tour now.

Your exciting day begins with a private pick-up from your Reykjavik accommodation. You'll greet your friendly driver-guide and climb into a comfortable minivan for up to eight passengers.

Because this is a private tour, you don't need to wait for anyone else and can maximize your sightseeing time. Most private tours are only for three or four people, but this one offers an excellent opportunity for families or groups of friends to enjoy a premium experience.

You'll head off to the day's first Golden Circle attraction, Thingvellir National Park, as soon as you're ready. This fascinating UNESCO World Heritage Site is in a rift valley, offering a unique chance to walk between the continents!

The Eurasian and North American tectonic plates are forced apart a little more each year at Thingvellir. It's an intriguing thought to ponder as you stroll through the park's stunning scenery. Your guide can also tell you about its historical significance as the birthplace of the Althingi, Iceland's long-surviving parliament.

The tour's next stop is Gullfoss waterfall, the 'Golden Falls.' This breathtaking cascade inspired the name of the Golden Circle sightseeing route. On sunny days, it often has a rainbow in front.

Gullfoss boasts extraordinary beauty and immense power as it plunges into a canyon on the Hvita river. Watch it tumble down two tiers from the safety of the viewing platforms, a sight to behold.

The third and final Golden Circle attraction is the Geysir geothermal area in the Haukadalur valley. Its most prominent feature is the Strokkur geyser, which shoots hot water and steam high into the air every five to 10 minutes. You'll have plenty of time to capture it on camera and bask in its magnificence.

Geysir has several other geothermal features, such as colorful mineral deposits, boiling mud pits, and steaming fumaroles. This otherworldly landscape got its name from the Great Geysir, a now-dormant geyser that lent its name to all others worldwide.

Next, your driver will take you to lunch at a local tomato farm, included in the tour's price. When booking, you can indicate any special dietary requirements, such as vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free.

After a nourishing lunch, you'll visit Kerid crater. Kerid isn't an official Golden Circle attraction, but it's in the same area and is a striking addition to your itinerary. 

Walk up the crater, around its rim, and down to the small, picturesque lake inside. Its turquoise waters contrast beautifully with the crater's red and brown walls, so ensure your camera is handy!

The day ends with a soak in the luxurious Sky Lagoon spa. Admission is not included in the tour price, so book it separately.

The Sky Lagoon has a gorgeous infinity pool with unbeatable views across the ocean. It's the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploration. You can indulge in spa treatments or relax and enjoy the evening's panoramic views.

After an unforgettable day, your private driver will take you back to your accommodation in Reykjavik.
