About this experience
Turn your arrival day into a private Golden Circle tour. Your driver-guide meets you at KEF Airport and takes you straight to the highlights: walk between two tectonic plates at Thingvellir National Park, watch Strokkur erupt at the Geysir geothermal area and feel the spray at Gullfoss waterfall. On the way you also stop at the colourful Kerid crater, then finish at your accommodation in Reykjavik.
The day runs at your pace, and your luggage rides with you in the vehicle. Choose a sedan for 1-3 travellers or a van for up to 8.
Your guide meets you with a VAREN name tablet, tracks your flight, helps with your luggage and has water on request.
