Itinéraire
Profitez d'un arrêt panoramique à Ljósvatn, un lac paisible niché dans la campagne du nord de l'Islande. Entouré de collines vallonnées et de paysages largement ouverts, ce joyau caché offre de belles vues et une chance de découvrir la nature tranquille et intacte de la région. C'est un endroit idéal pour se dégourdir les jambes, prendre des photos et profiter de l'atmosphère tranquille islandaise.
Émerveillez-vous devant Goðafoss, l’une des cascades les plus emblématiques d’Islande, connue sous le nom de « cascade des dieux ». Cette cascade puissante s'étire en forme de fer à cheval large, créant un spectacle époustouflant d'eau et de brume. Promenez-vous le long des points de vue des deux côtés des chutes, prenez de superbes photos et découvrez la beauté brute et l'importance historique de ce monument naturel remarquable.
Explorez les pseudocratères de Skútustaðagígar au bord du lac Mývatn, une formation géologique unique créée par des éruptions volcaniques interagissant avec le relief des zones humides. Marchez parmi les cratères herbeux et profitez d'une vue panoramique sur le lac et les paysages environnants. Cette zone paisible offre une excellente occasion de se promener, de prendre des photos et d'observer de plus près la nature volcanique fascinante de l'Islande.
Entrez dans les paysages d'un autre monde de Dimmuborgir, un champ de lave spectaculaire rempli d'imposantes formations rocheuses, d'arches et de grottes. Souvent appelée « châteaux sombres », cette région a été façonnée par l’activité volcanique antique et est imprégnée du folklore islandais. Suivez des sentiers pédestres faciles à travers ce terrain surréaliste, prenez des photos et découvrez l'un des sites naturels les plus uniques autour du lac Mývatn.
Visite de Grjótagjá, une petite grotte de lave qui cache une source chaude géothermique saisissante. Célèbre pour son eau bleue cristalline et comme lieu de tournage de Game of Thrones, ce spot intime offre un aperçu de la pègre volcanique islandaise. Entrez dans la grotte, sentez la chaleur monter et admirez le contraste entre la roche de lave accidentée et l'eau rougeoyante.
Découvrez Hverir, également connue sous le nom de « Terres de la Mouche », une zone géothermique saisissante au pied de Námafjall où la terre se sent vivante. Marchez parmi les fumerolles fumantes, les piscines de boue bouillonnante et le sol coloré riche en minéraux dans les tons orange, jaune et rouge. Le parfum intense de soufre et le paysage spectaculaire créent une expérience vraiment d'un autre monde, offrant un regard attentif sur les puissantes forces géothermiques de l'Islande.

We really enjoyed the narration of our native Icelandic tour guide. Scenery was gorgeous and geology is amazing. One word of mention: during the tour they switched out our bus and driver which caused a bit of panic for some travelers. Probably should have mentioned that.
Thank you for your review. We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the beautiful scenery and the stories from our Icelandic guide. We appreciate your note about the mid‑tour bus and driver change. Overall, we’re happy the trip was enjoyable for you and thank you for sharing your experience.
They knew the best times to go to everything and we got to see it all! Very well organized and punctual! I loved the fun facts they gave on the bus as we went to each destination. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to see these sites during a cruise!

The trip and the tour guide were both excellent. Lake Myvatn, Godafoss waterfalls and the caves at Grotagja were all well worth a visit.

It's an exciting adventure! You go all the way to the highest point of the mountain and explore, weather permitting. We also had a lovely stop at a woman's family's farm house with delicious cake and tea.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re really glad to hear that the adventure left such a positive impression and that the visit to the mountain and the family farm added something special to your day. It’s wonderful that you enjoyed the hospitality and the homemade treats as well. We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and are happy the tour gave you memorable moments in this beautiful region.
This tour was a great experience. We saw the power of Godafoss, in the wind and some rain, and learned much about the lava fields, lakes and geothermal features of the area. Our guide and driver were terrific. One tip - no matter what the weather is like in port, dress warmly and prepare for rain and wind near the waterfall.
Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the tour and that your guide and driver helped make the day memorable. The sights in this region can be impressive in any weather, and it sounds like you embraced the conditions and still had a rewarding visit. Your practical tip about dressing warmly is very helpful for future guests. Conditions at the waterfall can be very different from those in port, and being prepared makes the experience much more comfortable. We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and are glad the tour left a positive impression.
Tales was a good driver/guide giving us a great summary of Iceland and this area The water fall, geo thermal and lava field were interesting.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re very glad to hear that Thales helped make your visit enjoyable and provided a clear overview of Iceland and the local area. It’s great that you found the waterfall, geothermal site and lava field engaging. We appreciate your feedback and hope the memories from the tour stay with you for a long time.
Excellent tour with well timed stops. If you want to see Falls, Lakes, Lava Fields, and scenic Iceland, this covers all the bases. Ebba?, our tour guide and Cooper did a great job keeping us on schedule while explaining Icelandic life and detailing what we would see at each stop. Loved her passion for her hometown and country, made the trip worth complete. She also has a wonderful Icelandic accent that you can understand and learn from!! Just wish I could remember how to spell her name!!!🙁
Thank you for this wonderful review. Your guide was Unnur and your driver was Kuba, and they will be delighted to hear how much you enjoyed the day. And you are not alone, Icelandic names like to test everyone’s memory. We are very glad the experience stayed with you and hope to see you again on another adventure.
This tour was a hidden gem. I was lucky to find it. We only had one day in the city, and this tour managed to pack an incredible number of experiences and sights into just six hours. My mom is 70, and she was able to handle almost everything comfortably, with the only exception being the descent into the Game of Thrones cave, which she chose not to do. Our guide, Anna, and driver, Kuba, kept everything running smoothly and on schedule. There were a few stops where I wished we’d had more time, but by the end of the day, I realized the timing was perfect. If we had spent longer at each stop, I probably would have run out of energy by the end of the day
Thank you for such a thoughtful review. We are delighted to hear the tour worked so well for both you and your mom and that Ana and Kuba helped make the day run smoothly. It is wonderful to hear the pacing felt just right in the end. We truly appreciate you choosing to spend your day in Iceland with us!
