Tour description
Whether you are a history buff, geology enthusiast or a nature lover this tour will be a day to remember forever. Take a hike between the tectonic plates of North America and Europe at Þingvellir (Thingvellir) National Park, a valley formed by tectonic plates deciding they had enough of each other due to a rift (GoT was filmed here too). The waterfall backdrop of Öxarárfoss halfway through the hike makes a nice icing on the cake.
Read MoreThe parks also host the First parliament of Iceland (UNESCO world heritage site) and Þingvallavatn (Thingvallavatn) lake (largest natural lake in Iceland) Gullfoss is magical and is known as the golden falls and is a sight to behold as the water is powerful and magnificent but remember to bring your waterproof gear for chances are she might be happy to bless you with a few sprinkles of water as you walk close to her.
Iceland is full of geothermal spots and though Geysir the largest geyser is dormant we get to see comparatively smaller Strokkur which shoots up spectacular spouts of water from every 6 to 10 minutes and makes you wonder what nature is cooking down below.
The golden circle tour is an experience for a lifetime, and we offer a pocket friendly private tour which is both customised and flexible, we do not follow a set pattern but gauge the crowd pattern, start timing and keep an eye on the weather to make your day is unfettered and the time is spent optimally. There is scope for add-on depending on the weather and your penchant for adventure.
