Overview of your Reykjavik tour

Join me for a memorable experience exploring Iceland’s famous Golden Circle—designed especially for travellers who prefer a comfortable pace and a more authentic experience. We begin our day at Þingvellir National Park, a place of extraordinary geological & historical importance where you'll get to walk between the continents and enjoy the natural scenery. Next stop is to marvel at the sight of Gulfoss waterfall where you can stand in the spray of one of Europe's most spectacular sights - think of a Mini Niagara Falls.) followed by experiencing the energy of the Geysir geothermal area where you can watch the geyser erupt every few minutes. We then keep warm by enjoying a special lunch inside the Fridheimer Greenhouse Farm where you'll have some of the best soups you've tasted in a cosy greenhouse atmosphere - its a real treat. Throughout the journey, you’ll enjoy views of Iceland’s glaciers and volcanoes, and I’ll take you to a few quieter, 'HIDDEN GEMS' that most visitors never see.
