The Golden Circle Private Tour takes you on a personalized journey to some of Iceland’s most important sites, through the heart of Iceland’s Southern Region.
Thingvellir National Park is a landmark of great geological, historical, and cultural significance. The UNESCO-designated world heritage site is where Iceland’s parliament, Althingi, was founded in 930 AD and is also where the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates slowly drift apart. You will walk the grounds where the nation’s leaders would meet to decide on the laws of the land and where criminals were brought to justice.
Continuing along an area of breathtaking mountains and valleys, you arrive at the all-powerful Gullfoss waterfall on the Hvíta River. Once there, you can get up close and personal with the two-tiered waterfall by walking along the many paths around the cascading water.
Home of the namesake of all geysers “The Great Geysir” hot spring, this area is dotted with bubbling puddles, whistling steam vents, and colorful algae deposits. Although Great Geysir is currently dormant, the nearby Strokkur geyser puts on quite the show every few minutes blasting boiling water high up into the air.
The significant landmarks, rich histories, and fascinating sagas all come to life with the facts and stories of your knowledgeable Iceland Tour Expert, allowing you to experience Iceland to the fullest.
The Golden Circle is just about 320 km counting both ways away from Reykjavik. The first stop of the Golden Circle Private tour is at Þingvellir National Park, then the Golden Circle Private tour continues to the Geysir Geothermal Area and the last stop is at the Gullfoss waterfall.
The Golden Circle Private tour is about 8 hours in total (from departure until arrival back to Reykjavik).
Yes, our Golden Circle Private tour is definitely special! The tour is so popular because you see three amazing places just in a few hours, yet you still have time to go to discover Reykjavik's downtown for example.
The tour includes bus transport, a professional tour guide personalized to your small group, a tour in English, free WiFi onboard, super comfortable smaller coaches, a visit to the Thingvellir National Park, Geysir Geothermal area, Gullfoss Waterfall, and unforgettable memories for you, your friends & family!
With our best guide and skilled driver, you don't have to be afraid to do the Golden Circle Private tour also in the winter. The country offers a totally different breathtaking view, and it's just a must to see! But, of course, if the weather is not good, we don't go for any of the tours to keep everyone safe.
It always depends on the weather, but even in the summertime, be aware that the weather can change in 5 minutes. That's why it is always best to have waterproof clothes, warm clothes, and comfortable hiking shoes.
Even though it is prohibited to eat and drink in our coaches, during every stop, you can buy something to eat and drink at the Thingvellir National Park, Geysir Geothermal Area, and Gullfoss Waterfall.
It is always our pleasure to show you beautiful Iceland, and if you are more into spending time only with your family & friends, the Golden Circle Private tour is the best option for you. Our best guide will make your day count!
