Reykjavik Excursions

Great trip. The waterfall was beautiful.

We booked this trip after the previous night's trip was canceled. And it was really well worth the wait. The show was spectacular! When we first got there it looked like it was going to be another no show, but we waited patiently, and it paid off! The guide (Birta?) and driver (Damian) were both great. Highly recommend!

Tout était parfait : l'accueil sur le site, la préparation, la facilité pour réserver. Et un grand merci à Matteo pour cette magnifique excursion ! Il est passionné, drôle et très sympa. Je recommande les yeux fermés.

I recently visited the Golden Circle in Iceland, and it’s easily one of the most impressive day trips you can take while in Reykjavik. The route is packed with dramatic scenery, powerful natural landmarks, and that classic Icelandic energy that hits you the second you step outside the city. Thingvellir National Park was the perfect start — peaceful, surreal, and full of history. You can literally see the gap between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. Photos don’t do it justice. Geysir was next. Watching Strokkur erupt every few minutes was mad — boiling water shooting metres into the air with zero warning. Crowds aside, it was genuinely exciting and one of the highlights of the day. Gullfoss Waterfall was the big moment. It’s huge, loud, and powerful. You feel the spray on your face, the wind pushing you back, and the scale of it makes you feel tiny. Easily one of the most beautiful waterfalls I’ve ever seen. The drive between each stop was half the experience — mountains, open plains, horses, icy patches, lava fields. Iceland feels untouched. Overall, the Golden Circle is 100% worth doing. If you’re visiting Iceland for the first time, this route is a must. I’d do it again.
