Voted #1 tour in Iceland by TripAdvisor, the Golden Circle Classic is one not to be missed! Enjoy a day of travelling to some of the country’s most stunning sights and historical landmarks.
What’s even better – you’ll have a professional tour guide by your side!
Þingvellir is where the Icelandic parliament Alþingi held its first meeting in 930AD. The same spot has been used for parliament gatherings up until the 20th century!
Did you know that “Gullfoss” literally translates to “Golden Waterfall” in Icelandic? If you’re visiting the Golden Circle on a sunny day, you’ll see that the water looks golden-brown. The unusual colour comes from the millions of sediments from the Earth that has been carried by the glacial water for centuries!
You won’t have to wait long to see the famous hot springs erupt – water shoots out ever 6-10 minutes. The geysers are an impressive sight – they usually reach 15-20meters, but sometimes the water reaches up to 40m!

This best-selling tour of Iceland’s most famous landmarks includes a visit to Friðheimar greenhouse. The classic Golden Circle with a sustainable twist!
The tour starts with a visit to Fridheimar greenhouse where we learn about the magical methods of managing pests by using biological controls. We also learn how to grow delicious tomatoes in a eco-friendly way with the aid of geothermal heat which Iceland has in abundance.
After Fridheimar, we stop at Geysir geothermal area. The Stokkur geysir shoots a column of water up to 30 meters (98 ft.) into the air every 4-8 minutes in a thrilling display of nature’s forces.
The visit continues with Gullfoss waterfall, created by the Hvítá river, which tumbles and plunges into a crevice some 32 m (105 ft.) deep.
We also visit the historical and geological wonder that is Thingvellir National Park. Here the American and Eurasian tectonic plates are pulling apart at a rate of a few centimetres per year. Thingvellir is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
