Let us guide you through some of the most iconic attractions in Iceland in just 6 hours! This tour is particularly convenient for travellers who are staying in Iceland for a short period of time and want to make the most of it.
We start off at Thingvellir (Þingvellir) National Park, a site of historical, cultural and geological significance, not to mention immense natural beauty. From there we will continue to Gullfoss, the iconic waterfall where glacial meltwater cascades down into the deep and narrow Hvítárgljúfur canyon. Not only is it a sight to be seen, there is also some fascinating history surrounding Gullfoss that you will get to learn more about from our expert guides.
The final stop is Geysir, a unique geothermal area made up of hissing steam vents and bubbling mud pools, where you will witness the eruption of a geyser up close.
The Golden Circle includes the greatest tourist attractions in Iceland, covering about 300 km looping from Reykjavík into central Iceland and back.
Thingvellir landmark connects all the major events in the founding of the Icelandic commonwealth. It’s also considered the best place on earth to view the North Atlantic divergent ridge.
Friðheimar farm and greenhouse will welcome you and introduce you to the Icelandic horse and locally grown tomatoes. Lunch (at your own expense) will be held in the greenhouse where you will have the possibility to purchase local products on the menu after a visit of the stables.
Kerið is a striking crater-lake filled with milky blue-green water amid stark black and deep red slopes. Geologists now believe it to be a collapsed magma chamber at the end of a volcanic eruption that occurred more than 6,000 years ago.
Another amazing stop will be done at Gullfoss Waterfall. Its impressive shape will take your breath away!
Of course, we are always prepared for an extra stop or photo ops along the way. And if we’re lucky, we’ll get to pull over to feed any Icelandic horses at the side of the road.
Group size: max. 18 guests, providing a more intimate experience, more flexibility, more free time and more spontaneous encounters than travelling in big groups.

The tour begins with an exploration of Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where the tectonic plates of North America and Eurasia split and drift apart, which literally enables you to be in two continents at once. You will see Iceland’s largest natural lake and learn the incredible story of how Iceland’s first parliament was formed.
Next, we move on to the amazing 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 powerful history, which you will get to learn more about from an expert guide.
Last but not least is Geysir geothermal area, home to the geyser that all other geysers are named after. Strokkur is the most active one and erupts every few minutes so you are guaranteed to see an eruption up close.

This trip exceeded my expectations. The ever changing landscape was stunning, the food was excellent (although vegetarians are less well catered for, and it helps to like fish), and all the accommodation was clean and comfortable.

This tour takes you to South Iceland travelling through lush farmlands with views of powerful volcanoes, glaciers and thundering waterfalls.
First in a series of natural landmarks is Skógafoss waterfall, arguably the country‘s most iconic waterfall and one of South Iceland‘s star attractions. Viking legends tell of a treasure buried in a cave behind the waterfall.
From Skógafoss, you travel east to Sólheimajökull glacier for a 1-hour easy walk in a spellbinding glacier landscape. The combination of expansive views, jagged peaks, cool blue glaciers and wide-open sky provide a steady stream of amazing photographic opportunities.
Heading back to Reykjavik from Sólheimajökull is the iconic Seljalandsfoss waterfall, where you can literally walk behind a curtain of water — certainly a moment you’ll want to capture on camera.
Your South Iceland journey will take you through the country’s lush farmlands flanked by rugged mountains, glaciers (including the infamous Eyjafjallajökull) and volcanoes. Witness the stunning interior on one side and vast Atlantic ocean views on the other.
On this tour of South Iceland, you will experience the powerful beauty of Seljalandsfoss waterfall. Here, the Seljalandsá river, which originates under Eyjafjallajökull glacier, falls. Also see Skógafoss, one of the largest waterfalls in Iceland.
Just outside the town of Vík í Mýrdal (or just Vík to the locals) you will visit the soaring basalt rock formation known as Reynisdrangar and the black sand and pebble beach of Reynisfjara.
A written description is nothing compared to the lived experience. Let the guides at Gray Line bring South Iceland to life with stories, facts, science and history.
Iceland is magic,other-worldly. Don’t miss the Blue Lagoon!!! Tour is well-organized. Easy direct flight from Pittsburgh—forget about early check-in to hotel. Confusion both ways with airport transfers. Three hotels-all clean. Would have liked hotel in Reykjavik to be more central to the shopping district. Hotel Personnel helpful. Breakfasts elaborate and included. Food on our own was very expensive. Tour stops very interesting with opportunities to get off the bus and explore. Would have liked longer times to hike a bit. Driver careful. Tour director formal and informative.
