Combining the Golden Circle and Secret Lagoon, this breathtaking tour takes you on a wondrous journey through Iceland’s staggeringly raw beauty. It ends with the ultimate Icelandic indulgence: a luxurious soak in a geothermal pool under the open sky. The tour starts with an exploration of Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site where the tectonic plates of North America and Eurasia are pulling apart and creating a rift valley with dramatic lava rock formations. This is also the site where Iceland's first parliament was founded, more than a 1000 years ago.
Next, we move on to the awesome Gullfoss waterfall, where you can take a short walk down a pathway and get close enough to feel the mist of glacial water on your skin. Gullfoss is a powerful waterfall with a rich history that our expert guides will share with you.
The tour continues to the Geysir geothermal area where a geyser known as Strokkur is very active with eruptions every few minutes, so you are guaranteed an opportunity to see an eruption up close. Just off the Golden Circle is the Secret Lagoon, a spring-fed pool located near the charming village of Flúdir in South Iceland. Mineral-rich geothermal waters from nearby hot springs stay at a steady temperature of 38-40 degrees Celsius, making the Secret Lagoon’s water perfect for bathing, relaxing, and enjoying your time.
