Our Overview
The Golden Circle is Iceland’s most popular day tour — and for good reason. In just a few hours we pass by and experience some of the island’s most unique geological formations. Our main stops are Thingvellir National Park, which is just 45 minutes from Reykjavík, the famous Geysir, the tomato, and finally the spectacular Gullfoss.
Depending on the group’s time and energy, we can add more stops and extend the tour at no extra charge. The goal is to enjoy every moment and learn about this fascinating place.
From June to August we offer this tour late in the afternoon to avoid the crowds — it’s by far the most popular, and it’s not the same seeing these sites with 1,000 people in front of you. The price remains the same.
- Thingvellir National Park
- Geysir
- Gullfoss
- Brúafoss
- Tomato Farm
- Kerid crater
A geothermal hot-spot where boiling water and steam burst from the earth — the name “geyser” actually comes from Geysir. Nearby Strokkur erupts reliably every 8 minutes more or less. • Question: why it erupts every 8 minutes?
Literaly means the golden waterfall in Icelandic. A 32 meter dramatic two-tiered waterfall on the Hvítá river that plunges into a deep canyon — loud, powerful, and spectacular from multiple viewpoints. It’s one of Iceland’s most iconic falls. • Why it’s color it’s milky?
A smaller, intimate waterfall known for its striking bright-blue, almost milky water and stepping cascades — very photogenic. • Why it’s so blue?
A volcanic crater lake with vivid red volcanic walls and a brilliant blue-green pool at the bottom — It was formed around 6.500 years ago, so it’s a relatively young crater. Unlike many craters that exploded outward, Kerið was created when a volcanic cone collapsed inward after its magma chamber emptied. • Question: Why there are red rocks all around the crater?
