The guide will pick you up early in the morning from the hotel where you’re staying.
From here, your adventurous journey starts. The main Golden Circle attractions include:
• Thingvellir National Park
• Geysir geothermal area
• Gullfoss waterfall
The day starts by visiting Thingvellir National Park, where the Icelandic parliament, Alþingi, was founded in the year 930 AD. The area is geologically remarkable, and the tectonic plate boundaries form breathtaking scenery.
Then we will head to the popular but significantly higher temperature of the water in the geothermal area in Haukadalur. Here, you can observe active geysers very closely. There are many more things to explore, like the Great Geysir, steam vents, and hot springs.
You will continue to the beautiful waterfall, Gullfoss, where you can walk so close to the edge that you might feel the fresh mist of the glacial water on your face. The lunch break is usually at the Gullfoss Cafe, but sometimes there may be a stop for lunch at the Information Center located in the geothermal area around Geysir.
Then we will head to witness another wonder: Strokkur, Iceland’s most famous geyser, and another wonder located on the Golden Circle route, known for its frequent and impressive irruptions shooting boiling water up to heights of around 15 to 20 meters into the air. The natural beauty of the area is shaped by the forces of the earth; bubbling mud pots, hot springs, steaming vents, and other little geysers are littered around, and the ground itself is dyed vividly by mineral deposits. End the day with dinner at the hotel.

Another day, another adventure. Driving from Reykjavík to Silfra fissure is a short drive, only about 50 minutes through the town of Mosfellsbær and up the valley of Mosfellsdalur, past fields of horses and Lake Þingvallavatn, until making a turn once down to the lower plane of Þingvellir.
Silfra is the only place in Iceland where you can dive between two continents. It was created around 1789 after a massive earthquake along the tectonic plates and was filled up with glacier meltwater from the nearby Langjökull glacier. The water is pristine and clear, as purely reflective as a mirror.
Explore the aquamarine life of the Silfra fissure and witness some incredible rock formations. The four sessions of the fissure are as follows: Deep Silfra Crack, where you can have your photograph taken between two continents—the Silfra Hall, Silfra Cathedral, and Silfra Lagoon—has amazing underwater visibility.
You'll get the effortless snorkeling experience of pushing into the depths of clear water while taking in the forces that dictate the world’s geography.

Here you can explore stunning blue/green water full of blue, white, and turquoise icebergs, diverse wildlife, and surrounding attractions. No Iceland trip is complete without visiting this beauty.

Today your guide will take you to explore BreiÐAFJÖRÐUR and Snæfellsnes Peninsula.
Snæfellsnes Peninsula is often called "Iceland in Miniature" as it offers such varied landscapes, also featuring the running Snaefellsjokull glacier volcano, surrounded by vast lava fields, picturesque mountain craters, waterfalls, black and white sand beaches, and caves. Witness the spectacular views along the coastline, with rugged rock formations jutting out from the Atlantic waves.
1. Arnarstapi and Hellnar: a charming fish village situated along the rugged coastline

Around 3000 islands and rock outlets are littered throughout Breiðafjörður. Very few of these are inhabited year-round; many used to be. Some of the islands are home to old fishing villages, historic lighthouses, and archaeological sites.
Breiðafjörður is also home to diverse wildlife, including seabirds, seals, and marine mammals. Visitors will be delighted by the abundance of species, including puffins, guillemots, and kittiwakes.

Today, the guide will take tourists to walk along the Almannagjá gorge and experience the menacing feel of the enormous rock walls that tower on either side. It was formed by the earthquake that released the tension between two plates. It appears like a stunning, narrow valley that is at the tip of the tectonic plate of North America and Europe. You can enjoy this 8-kilometer-long hiking challenge with spectacular landscape views.
This place has a significant place in Icelandic history. As you walk through the Icelandic valley, you'll see a flag raised in the middle of a rock pile on the Lögberg ("the rock of the law"), where the first Icelandic parliament met. This is the place where new laws were created and old ones were let go. The law speaker would read them outstandingly on a high rock, and his voice would echo in the cliffs. Running through the Almannagjá gorge is the Öxará, a river that leads to Öxarárfoss, a beautiful waterfall whose crystalline waters contrast perfectly against the black rocks.

This day is dedicated to exploring Reynisfjara, which is a black sand beach, found between Vík í Mýrdal village and Dyrhólaey. It is renowned for its dramatic scenery with black sand and powerful waves, and the nearby Reynisdrangar sea stacks make this place a truly unique place to visit and a popular filming location (Game of Thrones, Star Wars, and more). This place is one of the most well-known black-sanded beaches in the whole world. Take in some magnificent views but do not stand too close; those masterful waves deserve your respect and can be quite dangerous if you get too close.
Then we will head to explore Hálsanefshellir Cave, a large sea cave carved into the cliffs of Reynisfjara, providing shelter from the elements and offering unique photo opportunities
