Golden Circle and the Langjokull Glacier
If you have just one day at your disposal to visit Iceland, the discovery of the “Golden Circle” is a must.
This trip will allow you to discover the Thingvellir national park, representing both a historical and a geological site of the utmost importance, the Gullfoss spectacular waterfall, and the atypical site of Geysir, world-widely known for its hot springs and the wide range of geothermal phenomena. Then, we take the route leading to the Langjokull glacier. If you want, optionally, you can drive a snowmobile on the glacier for an hour, accompanied by a guide. Later, on our way back to Reykavik, we pass by the beautiful Faxi waterfall and the Hveragerdi village.
Experience many of Iceland's natural gems in a magnificent day tour – Do it in style and comfort in our Super Jeeps.
Tour itinerary
We leave Reykjavik and follow the route to Thingvellir, ranked as UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2004. It was there where the parliament was established in 1930 and where Iceland’s independence was proclaimed in 1944. So it is easy to understand why it is so important for the Icelanders.
