Why it's on Icebreaker
Golden Circle Day Tour
The Golden Circle delivers travellers to a trio of classics a stone's throw from the capital: Þingvellir national park, the Geysir geothermal area and Gullfoss. It is Iceland's most popular route: not crowded like Venice, but not tranquil like some advertising may lead you to believe. The Grapevine recommends a guided tour for this one, which frees up your eyes for the view. At Geysir the main act is Strokkur, erupting roughly every five minutes; at Gullfoss the view changes every few metres along the path. These are eight-to-eleven-hour bus trips with BusTravel Iceland, Nicetravel or Arctic Adventures, picking up in Reykjavík. Most add Kerið, the crater Arctic Adventures bought in 2023; the longest end with a soak at the Blue Lagoon, admission included. Lunch is not.
From the Icebreaker app, curated with The Reykjavík Grapevine.
