Additional Information

On this traditional journey, we’ll embark on The Golden Circle to fully immerse ourselves in all its majesty and splendor! Our destinations include the Þingvellir national park, the Geysir geothermal zone, and Gullfoss, the crowning jewel of all Icelandic waterfalls. 

We will explore the stunning Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO Heritage site, where the views are breathtaking regardless of the weather conditions! We’ll examine the evidence of tectonic plate separation and learn about the spot where Iceland’s earliest settlers established the world’s oldest parliament, Althingi (Alþingi), in the year 930. 

Our journey continues to the geyser zone, home to Geysir, the original geyser that lent its name to all others. Here we’ll witness the active geyser Strokkur, which erupts approximately every 5-10 minutes and can reach a height of up to 25 meters. We will also explore the other geothermal attractions in the area. Our final stop is the majestic Gullfoss waterfall, often referred to by Icelanders as the Queen of all Waterfalls!

Brilliant Golden Circle Tour - We had an excellent tour experience from start to finish. We were collected from our hotel by Ibi who was warm & friendly. She discussed our preferences for the day & suggested the order of sightseeing. On the day the weather conditions were extremely challenging, high winds & very snowy roads. However with our guide having a background as a Park Ranger & a member of a voluntary search & rescue team we couldn’t have been in better hands. Our vehicle was a brand new 4 wheel drive Jeep, comfortable and spacious & to have a guide all to ourselves was a real treat. Ibi was extremely knowledgeable about Icelandic history as well as the geography of the area & presented all the information with insight & humour. All in all the had a great day & would highly recommend. Thank you!

Magnificent!!!! - Our flight was delayed to Iceland and we arrived with cloudy overcast skies. Then Skuli arrived and took us on The Golden Circle Tour. He completely turned our day bright with his wonderful personality. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Iceland and was even taking courses on learning more, we were impressed by his dedication. We were able to take this tour in a brand new rubicon jeep, what a treat!!!! The hours flew by and we were transformed into a remarkable journey through Iceland! Every stop became more breathtaking as we discovered why everyone wants to go to Iceland. We are excited for our return. The Golden CIrcle is a must see for your trip to Iceland, just ask for Skuli!!

Wonderful day trips with Southcoast Adventure - We had two full days, one touring South Iceland, and then the Golden Circle. Both days were excellent and we particularly enjoyed the trip to see the ice cave. Our driver and guide on both days was Vidar Helgason. He was knowledgeable and very entertaining, and nothing was too much trouble for him. He was obviously keen to ensure that our experience was simply the best it could be, and in this he succeeded. Thank you.
