Rejseplan
Vi starter dagen med en morgen afhentning fra dit valgte sted i hovedstaden Reykjavík
En 40-minutters kørsel tager os til Þingvellir (Thingvellir) National Park, hjemsted for Islands første parlament, Althingi. Parken ligger i en dramatisk revnet dal mellem de eurasiske og nordamerikanske tektoniske plader og blander slående naturskønhed med rig historie, hvilket gør den til en af Islands mest betagende destinationer.
Vores eventyr vil derefter føre os til den betagende Gullfoss, passende kaldet "gyldne vandfald," beliggende i selve kanten af de islandske højland. Gullfoss kaskaderer graciøst i Hvíta-flodens kanon, og bliver fodret af Langjökull-gletsjeren mod nord, hvilket giver den en majestætisk aura. Som et to-trins vandfald synes Gullfoss at forsvinde ind i dybderne nedenfor, med dets vand, der synker til en imponerende 32 meter. Vandfaldet tilbyder en fascinerende visning af naturens magt, der viser de rå kræfter i islandske landskaber. Uanset sæsonen, Gullfoss fanger med sin beundrende skønhed, hvilket gør det til et must-see destination på vores rejse gennem Islands naturlige vidundere.
Næste på vores rute er Geysir Geothermal Area, som er berømt for at være hjemsted for Islands mest kendte geysere. Dette område er faktisk navnet på alle gejsere! Her vil du vandre blandt boblende vandbassiner, klare geotermiske kilder og dampventilatorer. Den mest aktive geyser, Strokkur, udbryder hver 4 til 10 minutter, hvilket giver dig mange chancer for at se kogende vand skyde op mellem 49 og 65,6 fod (15 til 20 meter) i luften.
Den hemmelige lagune er Islands ældste geotermiske pool. Beliggende i mos-dækket lavafelter, forbliver vandet varmt 100–104 ° F (38–40 ° C) året rundt, med en lille geyser, der tilføjer oplevelsen. Svømning her er den perfekte afslappende finale til dit eventyr - medbring dit svømmeudstyr eller leje det på stedet.
Vores sidste stop er Kerið krater, eller "Verdens øje", en vulkansk krater dannet for over 6.500 år siden. Dens lyse blå-grønne sø indstillet mod den røde vulkanske sten gør det til et must-see. Krateren er 886 fod (270 m) bred med vægge op til 180 fod (55 m) høj, der tilbyder fantastisk udsigt fra kanten og en naturskøn 20 minutters vandretur rundt om søen. Sæsonmæssige ændringer - fra grøn mos om sommeren til sne og is om vinteren - gør det magisk året rundt.
Vi vil derefter tage tilbage til Reykjavík, hvor du vil blive droppet fra din startplads.

This was a very nice tour, easily paced and Bruno was a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. Highly recommend this tour!
Very interesting trip. The Highligts of Reykavik. Our guide was very friendly and told us a lot about Iceland the pick-up at the ship also worked
We took a number of tours while in Iceland and this was by far, our least favorite. The guide did not seem interested in sharing information about our stops, which were all amazing, and just seemed to be going through the motions. Additionally, it was disappointing when another bus broke down and he gave our van to another group to use with all of our personal belongings inside. We wandered around the parking lot looking for our guide in the pouring rain for 15 minutes and then had to wait an additional 15 minutes for the van to return. When it arrived, our belongings were all over the place, including on the floor, which was all wet from the rain. I highly recommend the golden circle tour, but find a different company!
Maria was a fantastic tour guide: warm, competent, humorous, and with a palpable passion for Iceland. Her explanations were precise, never too long, and always spiced with little stories that brought the places to life. The tour itself was perfectly organized: Small group, making it very personal and relaxed Beautiful stops – from Þingvellir to Geysir to Gullfoss Enough time at every location, without stress or rushing Pleasant driving style, clear communication, and always keeping an eye on everyone feeling comfortable Overall, an all-around successful tour that, thanks to Maria, was not only informative but also truly heartfelt. I would book them again anytime.
The places we went were great. Per our drivers instructions, we left our personal belongings on the bus. When we were at one of the longer stops, the driver allowed another tour group to take our bus. The driver took the bus with other tourists with all of our belongings. The driver was 20 minutes late back to the bus and we were stuck standing in the rain.
The tour was interesting and we saw amazing sites. It was, however, very difficult to LOCATE our tour van at the start of our journey. We went to the area marked "prebooked tours" as directed on the email, but there were 500 other people all looking for tours. There was no delineation for various companies and no description of what type of vehicle we should locate. I was expected the van or bus to read "New Day Tours" but it was an "Arctic Adventure" tour bus. We wandered around asking buses and vans if they were our tour. Finally, we heard our name called by a driver walking around trying to collect his people. Not a great start. Utter chaos and poor signage. Tour sites were SUPER crowded with little explanation other than a few predrop-off bits by our driver. Finally, while we were at one of the stops, our driver loaned our van to another group whose van had a mechanical issue. This was very upsetting as our group had left much of our belongings in the bus...including cameras, watches, ipad, wallets, etc. We were told to take what we needed but that the bus would be locked up. This required us to stand waiting in the rain for the return of our bus, and it delayed our next visit. Thankfully none of us lost any belonging, though bags were stuffed here and there at random and dropped on the wet floor, and it took some time for folks to find their items and pass them around to proper owners. I understand that our driver was only trying to be kind. It just felt very unsettling to know our bags had gone off with strangers and were not being cared for.
I would recommend this tour but with a different company besides artic adventure. We returned to the van after the golden circle at the designated time. There were 12 in our group. The van was no where to be found. We asked another driver with the same company for help. He told us we were wrong and the van is always in the same spot. After 15 min of searching the lot we finally found the driver. We learned he loaned our van to another driver who had a flat tire, we were never informed of this and we were told upon stopping that we could leave our belongings on the bus as it would be locked and secure. While luckily nothing was taken , we felt the situation was handled in appropriately, They should have a better system in place in case there are van issues. I sent a message to the provider and I got no response.
Very beautiful excursion with Maria, "Arctic Adventure" and "all day tour", Icelandic, cyclist, and very friendly! Anecdotes and spontaneous presentations of his country, and especially of the Golden Circle in a small group in a small, very comfortable shuttle! A long time at the Secret Lagoon! Only downside: the meeting point is the same as for all the buses and shuttles! Stressful moment trying to find your shuttle!!
Be patient. Some sites are INCREDIBLY crowded. Long lines at bathrooms, no seats, etc. That said, the scenery is amazing. Our guide, Erla, was excellent!
It was great but we definitely needed more time at the Secret Lagoon. Because of the showering requirement before and after, our time in the water is severely limited.
