Tour privado por el Círculo Dorado con extra a tu elección

Discover a different side of Iceland at every stop, from Þingvellir’s rocky rift valley to the steaming springs of Geysir, the rushing waters of Gullfoss, and the red slopes of Kerið Crater. This customizable 10-hour Golden Circle tour brings together remarkable scenery, local stories, and time to explore.

With pickup from your hotel in the Reykjavík area, your day begins close to home. Travel with a knowledgeable guide and personalise the journey with an optional food stop or a relaxing visit to a geothermal lagoon.

Leave Reykjavík Behind

Meet your guide at your hotel and settle into a comfortable vehicle for the drive into the countryside.

As the views open out, hear about the places ahead and the natural forces that have shaped them. Your route begins at Þingvellir National Park, a setting closely connected to both Iceland’s landscape and its history.

Þingvellir: Where Iceland’s Story Unfolds

Explore paths bordered by rocky walls, moss-covered ground, and clear-water fissures at Þingvellir.

The park lies along the boundary between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, where gradual movement has shaped the rift valley. Among these dramatic surroundings, the Alþingi, Iceland’s parliament, was established in 930.

Hear about the gatherings once held here and take in the birch trees, ravines, and open views. Fans of Game of Thrones may also recognise parts of the landscape.

Geysir: Steam, Springs, and Sudden Eruptions

The Geysir geothermal area introduces you to the heat beneath Iceland’s surface. Steam drifts across the ground, while bubbling springs and steaming vents draw your attention along the paths.

Watch Strokkur closely as the water begins to rise and swell before shooting into the air. With eruptions every few minutes, there is time to enjoy the anticipation and have your camera ready.

Your guide will share the story behind the geothermal activity as you explore.

Gullfoss: Feel the Force of the Falls

At Gullfoss, the Hvítá river tumbles over two drops and rushes into the canyon below.

Make your way between the viewpoints to appreciate the waterfall’s scale and changing appearance. The sound of the water follows you along the paths, while spray rises above the gorge.

On sunny days, watch for a rainbow in the mist—a memorable finishing touch to the view.

Kerið: A Window into Iceland’s Volcanic Past

Continue to Kerið Crater, where red slopes descend towards a blue lake.

Take a moment to enjoy the contrast of colours and the shape of the surrounding volcanic landscape. As your guide explains the crater’s origins, look out over the water and find your favourite angle for a photograph.

Add a Taste of Iceland or Time to Relax

Make the day more personal with an optional experience along the way.

Enjoy lunch at a tomato farm, stop for locally made ice cream at a dairy farm, or round out your sightseeing with a soak at the Secret Lagoon, Blue Lagoon, or Sky Lagoon.

All additions are available at an extra cost and are subject to availability. Your chosen experiences will shape the route and timing of the day.

Return to Reykjavík

After exploring, settle in for the journey back to your hotel in the Reykjavík area.

The return drive offers time to relax and reflect on a day filled with historic landscapes, geothermal activity, and some of Iceland’s most recognisable sights.

A Shared Love of Iceland

That idea has grown into a team of adventure-loving guides who share the same welcoming spirit. Each guide brings their own experience and stories, helping make your day personal and memorable.
