Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Thingvellir National Park, Thingvellir, South Region
Head first to Thingvellir National Park with your guide. It was here, in the year 930, that the Icelandic national parliament was founded. Known locally as Althingi, the institution stands today as the oldest of its kind in the world, but that’s not the only reason it’s such a special place. It is here, in the Thingvellir National Park, that the mighty tectonic plates of North America and Europe meet.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Gullfoss, Blaskogabyggd, South Region
Continue on to the impressive Gullfoss waterfall, widely considered to be one of Iceland’s most beautiful sights. Gullfoss is fed by the Hvítá River, which tumbles down dramatically over a series of rocky steps into deep plunge pools below. Marvel at the falls’ power and perhaps take a moment to capture the views on camera.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Strokkur, Geysir, South Region
Journey on to the Haukadalur geothermal area, where the hot springs of Geysir and Strokkur await. Discover impressive geothermal features such as bubbling mud pools, and marvel at the Strokkur geyser’s regular eruptions.
Duration: 45 minutes
Stop At: Golden Circle Route, South Region
Iceland's most popular sightseeing route, where three of the country's most spectacular natural wonders can be seen on the same trip.
Duration: 6 hours
