About this activity
Your day starts by driving from Reykjavik to the historic site of Thingvellir National Park. This was the venue for the Icelandic parliament from 930 till 1798 and is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage SIte, both for it´s rich history and amazing nature. This is also where the American and Eurasian tectonic plates meet which creates an amazing feeling having one foot in each world.
After enjoying the experience of Thingvellir, you will travel onwards to the world famous site of the hot spring Geysir. Known throughout the world for it´s power and beauty, Geysir has become a synonym for this amazing show of nature. Strokkur, another hot spring, sits nearby and is very active, erupting to heights up to 30 meters every few minutes. In the Geysir area you will also have time to buy lunch or some snacks.
Next on the agenda is the waterfall Gullfoss - the golden waterfall. One of the most popular tourist attractions is Iceland, Gullfoss will amaze you with it´s raw power and beauty, plummeting down 32 meters into a rugged canyon.
These three attractions complete the classic Golden Circle - but to add even more to your experience - we also stop at the spectacular Kerid Volcanic Crater. This 3000 year old crater is 55 meters deep and offers a unique view of the beauty of the Icelandic nature. Admission to the Kerid is included in the tour price.

It was an incredible nice day. The tour was well organized, the landscape and the tour itself was beautiful and our tour guide David was very friendly, funny and shared a lot of information with us. Thank you David!
Definitely worth doing the trips, such as this one, that include the Kerid Crater. Could have had a bit more explanation at Pingvellir. Only 4 star as minibus had some problems with door which detracted from the tour - which were solved half way through.
Very informative guide. One of the best parts was the last stop of the volcano which a lot if trips don't accommodate. Definitely worth paying the extra for this trip.
Our guide Michael (Micha) was great. He explained how the day would go and had many interesting facts along the way. We loved that it was a small group. We had better weather than expected and it made for an awesome day. Highly recommend
Our guide, Fernando, was fantastic. He is from Spain, but he knew a great deal about Iceland. Apparently, he travels around the world as a tour guide. I picked this tour because it went to all the major sites on the Golden Circle, but also included the Kerid Volcanic Crater.
I had a great time on this tour. We had plenty of time to walk around and enjoy each of the sites. The tour guide was great - he gave us left us alone to explore on our own but was also there if we wanted information. He was quite knowledgeable and helpful. The small group made the tour much more relaxed and friendly.
First of all the Golden Circle is a must see the site are all truly amazing and our tour guid dawid was very informative funny and made sure we saw every part of the Golden Circle I would definitely recommend this to any one that goes to Iceland
you can go at your our pace, know some experiences may be too hard for some inexperienced walkers. but most of the tour is on a bus.
This was an amazing tour. I enjoyed walking to the top of the crater and looking down. What a fantastic view. There was lots to see on this tour and I highly recommend it.
