Description
Embark on an adventure to see the Golden Circle sightseeing route and the Kerid crater, then slow down and unwind at the Sky Lagoon geothermal spa. This ten-hour small-group tour will satisfy travelers looking for excitement and relaxation during their Iceland vacation.
You'll begin your trip in Reykjavik, where your guide will pick you and your fellow travelers up on a minibus. You'll enjoy a comfortable journey with free Wi-Fi and USB chargers to keep you connected as you travel throughout the day.
Your first stop is the Thingvellir National Park, where the American and Eurasian tectonic plates pull apart along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. The result is a stunning landscape and rift valley that allows you to stand between two continents.
Historically, Thingvellir National Park is also significant as the world's first parliament site. The Vikings would visit the site for hundreds of years between the 10th and 18th centuries to hold festivals or settle disputes.
Up next, you'll witness the geothermal wonders of Geysir and the Haukadalur geothermal area. Geysir is a geyser and the Icelandic word for "gush." Geysers worldwide get their name from this particular one in Iceland.
Geysir has been inactive for several years, but fortunately, you can still see the incredible displays of power from the Strokkur geyser right beside it. This geyser shoots out boiling water every few minutes, and it's best to stand back while you enjoy the show.
Your next stop takes you to Iceland's most iconic and beloved waterfall, Gullfoss waterfall. The name translates to the "Golden Falls," and the powerful mists from these waters can generate huge rainbows on sunny days.
Next, you'll arrive at Kerid crater, where the iron-rich volcanic rocks make the caldera strikingly red. At the crater's base is a beautiful blue lake dotted with rich, green moss.
Having seen the natural wonders of the Golden Circle sightseeing route, you'll head back to Reykjavik to finish off your trip with some much-earned relaxation.
The Sky Lagoon geothermal spa will provide an incomparable experience to calm your body and soothe your soul.
The spa features an infinity pool, a swim-up bar, and ocean views. Going through the spa's Skjol Bathing Ritual will leave you feeling refreshed and ready to head home with unforgettable memories from your journey around Iceland.
