Golden Circle & Highlands

Start the Super Golden Circle with a scenic drive to Haifoss, Iceland’s second tallest waterfall, offering breathtaking views of an ancient glacier valley. Continue to "Gjain" a rift formed by a melting Ice Age glacier over 9,000 years ago and visit Stöng, a reconstructed Viking house from the Commonwealth era. Hike through the rift (optional), taking in waterfalls and dramatic basalt cliffs. Make a quick stop at Hjalparfoss, a stunning double waterfall, then head to Fridheimar Greenhouse for lunch at a unique tomato farm and restaurant (reservations recommended). Afterward, visit the Geysir Geothermal Area, where Strokkur erupts every 5-8 minutes, shooting water 30-40 meters high. Next, experience the powerful Gullfoss waterfall, which drops 32 meters in two stages. On sunny days, shimmering rainbows often appear over the falls. Finish your day at Thingvellir National Park, where the world’s oldest active parliament was established, and witness the drifting of the American and Eurasian tectonic plates.
