About this experience
Embark on a captivating 6,5-hour tour from Reykjavik to experience Iceland's Golden Circle. This adventure includes visits to three iconic natural wonders: the Geysir geothermal area, Gullfoss waterfall, and Þingvellir National Park.

Walk through this unique landscape and explore the birthplace of the Icelandic parliament, Alþingi, established in 930 AD.
