Dinner
Details: Golden Circle excursion
Experience all the geological diversity that Iceland has to offer with a visit to the Tingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that falls on a rift between two tectonic plates. Then make your way to the Great Geysir, watch the Hvítá river disappear into the earth at the Gullfoss waterfall, and watch the Strokkur erupt.
Details: Thingvellir National Park visit
Visit Thingvellir National Park, the most significant historical site in Iceland. The Alpingi, the original site of the Icelandic Parliament, was established there in 930 CE. The long deep cracks give the landscape the appearance of a crevassed glacier. The peaks are covered by snow, surrounding the country's largest lake, Lake Thingvallavatn. Here, you can enjoy a range of spectacular walks with beautiful scenery.
Details: Great Geysir Strokkur
Nearby, the "Great Geysir" Strokkur spouts and sprays water 30-35 meters in the air every 3-8 minutes. Photographers will have to be quick, or they'll miss the eruptions, which last only a couple seconds. Around the site are lots of colorful hot springs, steaming vents, warm streams, and psychedelic algae and mineral deposits.
Details: Gullfoss waterfall
If Iceland had a star attraction, then Gullfoss is certainly it. This waterfall is not necessarily the largest in Iceland, but is by far the most impressive. Here, the river Hvita drops a total of 32 meters in two falls. The canyon above them is 70 meters deep and 2.5 km long. When the sun is shining, you are likely to see a rainbow through the ample spray that forms.
Details: Gelato tasting at Efstidalur farm
Make a tasty stop on the Golden Circle and visit this unique recently renovated farm to take part in a gelato tasting experience. Sit back, enjoy the gelato while watching the cows through the windows.
