Highlights
  • See the best of the southwest of Iceland's waterfalls, lakes and geysers

Full description

See the best of southwest Iceland on an 8-hour Golden Circle tour by bus from Reykjavik. Visit the spectacular Geysir area, and go to the cascades of Gullfoss Waterfall. Discover where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates meet in Þingvellir National Park. Travel to the geothermal area of Geysir. Marvel as the active hot spring of Strokkur spouts steaming water 30 meters into the air every 8 minutes.

Continue to one of Iceland’s most iconic features at the Gullfoss Waterfall (“Golden Falls“). Feel the spray of the waters of the glacial River Hvítá as it plummets down into a 32-meter deep crevice. Next, enter Þingvellir National Park, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates are pulling apart at a rate of a few centimeters per year.

Þingvellir was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its cultural value in 2004, and is the site of a stunning rift valley and the Rock of Law, the first Viking parliament. Marvel at the volcanic crater at Lake Kerið, and pass through the Icelandic farms of the south on your drive around the Golden Circle, before returning to your original starting point in Reykjavik.

We really enjoyed the trip; I had been dubious about touring in a coach but our driver was very careful in bad weather conditions and our wonderful guide Unnur organized everyone really well so the getting on and off was quick and smooth. We had enough time at each stop and the services were excellent with loos shops and cafes. Unnur gave some fascinating insights into Icelandic life and traditions and was friendly and professional Highly recommend

The pickup and drop off were quick and efficieng. Hannes was an excellent guide and gave enough time per stop for us to enjoy the sights. We also went to an extra stop because of the good weather. The day flew by quickly and didn't feel like 8 hrs at all. Highly recommended!

Had a great trip today with Rock. Despite some folks who weren’t timely on the bus the guide made the most of the day. The stops are a stunning glimpse into the countryside of Iceland. If you are seeking an activity for the day this is one I would highly recommend.
