Itinerary and highlights
Kerið is an iconic volcanic crater of 55 meters depth.
The Secret Lagoon is Iceland's second most famous lagoon. It derives from a hot spring which makes it a relaxing bathing spot.
A friendly reminder: Since Secret Lagoon will be closed for facility upgrades from May 13th to 23rd, we will be using Laugarvatn Fontana geothermal spa instead.
The Golden Circle is a must-see if you are travelling to Reykjavik. It covers three very different and remarkable destinations: Geysir geothermal area, Gullfoss waterfall and Thingvellir national park.
Strokkur is the little brother or the famous Geysir which not active anymore. Strokkur though is still very active blowing water up into the air every 7 to 10 minutes.
At this stop can you also purchase food.
Gullfoss is a waterfall of the White River Hvítá. It has two steps of 11 and 21 meters and there are pulling more 100 m3 water through it at a second.
The Thingvellir are both historically and geologically a important location. Here was the first icelandic parliament founded in the late 900s and this is also the a visible division between the eurasian and the north american continental plates.
