About this experience

See the Golden Circle from the seat of a Super Jeep, a raised 4x4 built for Icelandic roads and weather, with your own driver-guide and no one else on board. Your guide picks you up at your Reykjavik accommodation with a VAREN name tablet and helps with your bags.

Walk through the rift between two continents at Þingvellir National Park and see Öxarárfoss waterfall. Stop to meet Icelandic horses, watch Strokkur erupt every few minutes in the Haukadalur geothermal area and feel the power of Gullfoss. The day ends at Kerið, a volcanic crater with red slopes and a blue lake; the entrance is included.

Your guide shares stories and practical tips along the way. Stay longer where you like; the day is yours. Water on request.

Private Super Jeep for up to 5 travellers. One price per vehicle, not per person.

Itinerary

1. Tour stop

   Your Private Golden Circle Super Jeep journey takes you through some of Iceland’s most iconic natural wonders, each with its own story shaped by fire, ice, and time.

2. Tour stop

   The day begins at Þingvellir National Park, a place where history and geology meet in a dramatic rift valley. This is where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates slowly pull apart, creating a landscape of cracks, cliffs, and crystal clear waters. It is also the birthplace of Iceland’s ancient parliament, making it one of the most meaningful sites in the country.

3. Tour stop

   From there, you continue into the geothermal heart of Iceland at the Geysir Geothermal Area. Here, bubbling hot springs and steaming earth set the stage for Strokkur, the active geyser that erupts every few minutes, sending boiling water high into the air. It is a powerful reminder that Iceland is still very much alive beneath the surface.

4. Tour stop

   A short drive brings you to Gullfoss, the famous Golden Waterfall. Glacial water thunders down in two dramatic tiers into a rugged canyon, often creating mist and rainbows on sunny days. It is one of those places where people naturally fall silent just to take it in.

5. Tour stop

   Next, the landscape shifts as you visit Kerid Crater, a volcanic caldera filled with striking blue water surrounded by red volcanic rock. The contrast of colors makes it feel almost unreal, like a natural amphitheater carved by ancient eruptions.
