What's included

Itinerary

1. Tour stop

   Begin with a scenic drive to Þingvellir National Park, the site of Iceland’s original parliament founded in 930 AD. Set in a dramatic rift valley where tectonic plates meet, this UNESCO World Heritage Site blends rich history with stunning geology. Stopping time is about 20 – 40 minutes.

2. Tour stop

   The geothermal area is where vibrant yellow sulfur, red iron-rich rocks, and pale silica deposits create a striking landscape. Watch Strokkur erupt every 4–8 minutes, sending boiling water up to 25 meters skyward, while the original Geysir sleeps nearby. This powerful natural show is truly unforgettable.

3. Tour stop

   Board the Monster Truck at Gullfoss and travel along the scenic Kjölur route into Iceland’s uninhabited highlands. Our powerful Monster Glacier Truck glides smoothly over rugged terrain, while expert guides share fascinating stories of glaciers, geology, and Icelandic folklore.

4. Tour stop

   Step into a hidden ice world visited only by our group at the time. Walk safely over uneven ground, snow and ice with spikes as you explore a stunning natural cave with shimmering blue hues and dramatic streaks of black volcanic ash. Your journey is made effortless and thrilling aboard our 530-horsepower Monster Truck, specially designed for glacier driving, delivering a smooth and unforgettable ride across ice and snow.

5. Tour stop

   Known as the "Golden Falls” the powerful glacial water plunges into a deep canyon, creating a dramatic roar and mist that you can feel on your skin. If the sun hits just right, you might even catch a rainbow dancing in the spray. After soaking in the beauty of Gullfoss, we board our comfortable minibus for a scenic drive back to Reykjavík.
