Discover Iceland’s Golden Circle, Secret Lagoon & Traditional Food Tasting
Short on time but craving an unforgettable Icelandic experience? This full-day small group tour from Reykjavík offers the perfect mix of dramatic landscapes, geothermal baths, and authentic local flavor. Visit famous sights like Þingvellir, Geysir, Gullfoss, and the Secret Lagoon — and enjoy a traditional food tasting inside a historic turf cave home.
Golden Circle Highlights
Þingvellir National Park
Step between two continents at this UNESCO World Heritage Site, where Iceland’s first parliament was founded in 930 AD. Walk the rift valley created by the shifting North American and Eurasian tectonic plates — a powerful and unique moment.
Geysir Geothermal Area
At the Geysir Hot Spring Area, you’ll witness Strokkur erupt every 5–8 minutes, sending steaming water high into the air. Explore bubbling mud pots and feel the ground tremble beneath your feet.
Gullfoss Waterfall
One of Iceland’s most iconic sights. Gullfoss plunges in two tiers into a rugged canyon. Get close enough to feel the spray and capture dramatic photos.
Geothermal Bathing & Local Culture
Secret Lagoon
Relax in the warm, mineral-rich waters of Iceland’s oldest natural pool. Surrounded by steamy landscapes and rural charm, it’s the perfect pause on an action-packed day.
Friðheimar Tomato Farm
A greenhouse restaurant powered by geothermal energy. Sit among the tomato plants and enjoy an optional lunch (not included), with famous tomato soup, fresh bread, and unique drinks.
The Cave People & Icelandic Tasting Experience
New on this route: a visit to a traditional turf cave home carved into the rock at Laugarvatnshellar. Once home to Icelanders in the early 20th century, this preserved site tells the story of how people lived — and what they ate. Inside the cozy cave, you’ll taste:
Fermented shark (hákarl)
Flatkökur (rye flatbread)
Brennivín (Icelandic schnapps)
It’s a sensory experience that blends storytelling, heritage, and flavor.

You’ll be picked up in Reykjavík and travel in a small group vehicle with one of our expert local guides. Expect stories, fun facts, music, and flexible stops along the way. We make sure the group stays small, the day flows smoothly, and your experience is personal and memorable.
