Itinerary and highlights

Explore the UNESCO-listed rift valley where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates meet. Travelers walk through historic assembly grounds and take in panoramic views of Þingvallavatn and the park’s dramatic volcanic formations.

Witness the geothermal power of Iceland as Strokkur erupts every few minutes, sending hot water high into the air. Guests can stroll the marked paths around bubbling hot springs and steaming fumaroles for close-up views of this active geothermal field.

Stand at the edge of one of Iceland’s most iconic waterfalls and watch glacier-fed water plunge into a rugged canyon. Multiple viewpoints offer excellent photo opportunities and a vivid demonstration of Iceland’s raw natural energy.

Relax in one of Iceland’s oldest natural hot spring pools, fed by warm geothermal waters year-round. Guests can unwind in the soothing mineral-rich water while enjoying views of small nearby geysers and the surrounding countryside.
