An Icelandic adventure awaits

Embark on an unforgettable journey through Iceland’s breathtaking landscapes as you explore the Golden Circle and unwind in the soothing Blue Lagoon. After convenient pickup from your Reykjavik accommodation, feel the excitement build as you approach Thingvellir National Park. With your expert guide leading the way, step into a realm where the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates meet. Stroll along tranquil paths, hopping between continents and absorbing captivating stories about this historic site, where Iceland’s parliament convened from 930 to 1798.

Discover natural wonders

Next, be captivated by the geothermal wonder of the Geysir Hot Springs. Feel the heat radiate from bubbling pools as you wait for Strokkur geyser to erupt, watching boiling water shoot up to 100 feet high. After enjoying a delightful lunch (at your expense), prepare for the breathtaking beauty of the Gullfoss waterfall, where you can feel the mist on your face as glacial waters plunge into the rugged canyon below. Continue to the vibrant Kerid Crater, where a serene blue lake contrasts beautifully with red volcanic rock. Finally, unwind in the iconic Blue Lagoon’s warm, mineral-rich waters, indulging in a rejuvenating silica mud mask. For a more enriching experience, upgrade to premium admission to enhance your experience with two extra masks, an extra drink, and a bathrobe rental.
