About this experience
Join us on a private bespoke Golden Circle tour in a luxury vehicle!
The Golden Circle includes some of Iceland's most popular tourist sightseeing spots. It's not only because they are close to the country's capital area, but also because they are stunningly beautiful, full of history and fantastic geology.
The traditional Golden Circle includes Þingvellir National Park, Geysir Geothermal Area, and Gullfoss Waterfall, but we also add several food stops, snacks, and more on this bespoke tour, so it's also a food journey and not just the beautiful sights.
The places we visit on our food journey depend on the season and time of day, but we always include a great lunch, farm-made Ice cream, and more. There is also the possibility of adjusting the food stops based on dietary restrictions and needs.
Please get in touch if you have larger groups wishing to enjoy this experience with us!
