Activity itinerary

Thingvellir National Park
  • 45m
  • Admission ticket included
Our first stop is the Þingvellir National Park, after one hour drive from Reykjavík. Stepping outside to the nearby Viewing Platform we get a super panoramic view of the park, its surroundings, and the country´s largest natural lake. This lake is very special since it has been isolated for 10.00 years. You are now standing on the very edge of the American tectonic plate, while in the distance is the Eurasian plate. Below and stretching out before you is a broad rift valley that has opened up as the two plates pull apart. Pretty dramatic stuff! Strolling down through the main gorge we stop at the most revered place in Iceland, the Law Rock. This is where in 930 AD the early settlers forged the destiny of a nation by establishing a national assembly of free men. Thingvellir was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2004. Now we drive for approx. 1 hour to Geysir geothermal area
Geysir
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Leaving the National Park, we drive to the famous Geysir Geothermal Field. The billowing clouds of steam rising here and there from the ground bears witness to the powerful forces at work right beneath your feet. The central attraction of course is the geyser Strokkur (the Churn), spectacularly spouting boiling water and steam 20 meters (60 feet) skywards. No worries as to nailing that perfect picture, it erupts every seven to eight minutes. Other special features are the bubbling mud pots and steaming fumaroles. The mineral rich water rising from deep within the earth also creates some vivid colors as it leaches across the surface of the ground. Now we drive for about 15 minutes to Gullfoss the Golden Waterfall
Gullfoss Waterfall
  • 45m
  • Admission ticket included
The next drive is approx. 15 minutes to the magnificent Gullfoss waterfall is stunning, and its beauty and raw power have earned it the title “Queen of Icelandic Waterfalls” and it has been rated one of the top ten waterfalls in the world. In summer, the rising spray is sometimes caught by the sun´s rays to create a beautiful rainbow arched across the falls, adding even further to its magical allure. Now we drive back to Reykjavík, approx. 1 hour and 45 minutes drive
