- Oxararfoss - Even though this beautiful waterfall is not one of the biggest in the country, it is one of the Icelandic peopleâs most well-loved waterfalls due to its location and for its historical significance
- Efstidalur II - We will visit Efstidalur dairy farm for some ice cream and also to visit Icelandic cows and other animals.
- Geysir - Geysir geothermal area is quite stunning where you witness the geyser Strokkur erupts every five minutes.
- Gullfoss Waterfall - The thundering Gullfoss waterfall tops many lists as a powerful and hypnotizing natural phenomenon
-
Fridheimar - After having lunch (not included) at this tomato farm, we will gain an insight into the processes of greenhouse horticulture, with a short and informative talk on the subject.
Also, Friðheimar breeds Icelandic horses, so we will be able to see and pet a couple of them. - Kerid Crater - It is one of several crater lakes in the area, known as Iceland’s Western Volcanic Zone, which includes the Reykjanes peninsula and the Langjökull Glacier, created as the land moved over a localized hotspot, but it is the one that has the most visually recognizable caldera still intact.

Amazing day - Me and my daughter went on this trip with Einar as our guide. He was very knowledgeable and Informative throughout the day on all locations of our tour and Iceland in general and was happy to answer our random questions.
We found the small group tours better than large groups, as it was very organised, not as noisy on the bus as they are small buses and more personal.
The places we visited on this tour were amazing, especially the sunrises at the national park. We thought a visit to a tomato farm was a bit random but it was in fact very interesting and we had the most delicious tomato soup and bread that was very indulgent.
This tour gives you a glimpse of some of the amazing sites of Iceland that are not to be missed.
Would highly recommend.

Top notch tour, guide and company - Each stop was beautiful and highlighted the beauty and variety that Iceland has to offer! Our guide, Bjorn, was very knowledgeable, friendly and funny!
When you go on this tour, be ready to take beautiful pictures and eat delicious unlimited tomato soup and bread (not included in tour price)! Take your crampons so you can comfortably walk around each site.
I appreciated the small group tour. And an extra special added bonus was that when I left something on the bus, the company delivered it to me that next evening at my hotel since they were picking a group up to go see Northern Lights.
Enjoy your trip!!

Bjorn for the win- a wonderful day. - What an extraordinary trip- our wonderful guide Bjorn was informative, kind, funny, and laid back while efficient. Our group (two couples) loved every moment and had a lot of fun while gaining a deeper understanding of Icelandic geography, culture, and history.
We thoroughly enjoyed this amazing scenic trip. The volcanic crater, Kerid, is beautiful in the winter. At Fridheimer farm we learned a lot about the hydroponic culture of Icelandic farming with an emphasis on quality, freshness, and taste. Try the tomato soup and the pasta, some burrata, a seafood skewer, the ravioli, and of course the bread. The olive bread was amazing. Skip the tomato beer- a bit heavy, and the pizza. Pricy but delicious. A little sticker shock at the bill.
I wish we had just a bit more time to explore the tomato farm. Lunch was amazing. The service was splendid.
One of the highlights of the trip ed the visit to the Thingvellir national park, where we walked across a bridge from the North American tectonic plate to the Eurasian tectonic plate- across the Great Rift.
The waterfall (Oxararfoss) shined in the sunlight amid the frigid mist. We caught the sunlight because our driver thoughtful considered where to be throughout the day based on available light- an example of how EastWest things if everything.
Final thoughts: 1. Wear ice climbing crampons. It's a must in the winter. 2. Plan for a pricy lunch. 3. You can see it all in this trip. So worth it.

No sun, no problem! - Everything you could want for an all-day tour. A good mix of humor, history, knowledge, and quiet. This country is truly a winter wonderland with a lot to offer if you can find the right person to share it with you.
