Explore Iceland in depth on this six-day journey starting and ending in Reykjavik, combining famous highlights with remote escapes. You’ll take in the Golden Circle and South Coast, with stops at powerful waterfalls, Reynisfjara’s black sands, Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon and the dramatic Katla ice cave. The adventure then shifts to the lesser-visited Westfjords, where quiet fjords, red-sand beaches and towering cliffs like Latrabjarg await. Expect scenic drives, wildlife, local museums and charming towns such as Isafjordur, all paired with expert guidance and comfortable stays along the way.
day 1Travel to South Iceland via the Golden Circle
Reykjavik - The Golden Circle (Thingvellir National Park; Geysir Geothermal Area; Gullfoss Waterfall) - Seljalandsfoss Waterfall - Kirkjubaejarklauster. Your adventure begins with pickup in Reykjavik and travel along the Golden Circle. Our first stop is Thingvellir National Park, where we walk through the rift valley between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates and see the site of Iceland’s first parliament. We then visit the Geysir geothermal area, home to Strokkur, which erupts every few minutes. From here, we continue to Gullfoss waterfall, where a powerful two-tiered cascade drops into a rugged canyon. In the afternoon, we head south. If conditions are clear, we may see Hekla volcano in the distance. We finish the day at Seljalandsfoss, where you may walk behind the waterfall if conditions allow. Please note: We strongly recommend arriving in Reykjavik the day before your tour starts. Please also note that this tour includes a moderate amount of hiking to see attractions such as waterfalls. You should be comfortable hiking a distance of around 5km. Get in touch with our team should you have any concerns.
