Sign on for a day of unwinding, adventure, and fun on this tour that takes you to Iceland’s best! After pickup in central Reykjavik, kick off your day at Kerið Volcanic Crater. Walk the winding rim trail around the top, then descend to the vibrant lake at its heart. Begin your tour by immersing yourself in the healing waters of the Blue Lagoon. Ranked amongst the 25 wonders of the world, the water in the spring constantly remains between 38°C and 40°C, making it the perfect place to relax regardless of the temperature and weather outside.

The second part of your trip, the Golden Circle starts with you heading into the wilderness of Iceland, at the Thingvellir National Park! This park offers breathtaking views as you descend into a rift valley. Next up, visit the Geysir Hot Springs and notice the Strokkur Geyser shooting steam and water high into the air every few minutes. The final stop on your itinerary is Gullfoss Waterfall, where the glacial waters of the Hvítá River drop down a precarious 32 meters, offering quite the view.
