Customer reviews on TripAdvisor
Golden Circle tour was great
From the pickup to the drop off the tour guide/driver was very friend extremely helpful and genuinely interested in ensuring we enjoyed the trip and gained as much information in the time available. The whole Golden Circle tour was good but we enjoyed the Secret Lagoon in particular - it is well worth a visit too experience swimming in the hot pool.
From
Gullfoss: Gullfoss, the golden waterfall is one of the three sights of the Golden Circle route. This great waterfall attracts thousands of visitors every year and for a good reason – According to the World of Waterfalls, it is one of the top ten best waterfalls in the world.
Geysir: Here you will have the opportunity to walk among the bubbling hot springs that surround the great Geysir, but make sure to stay within the restricted area for your own safety. Strokkur geyser is a site that you should definitely not miss before heading to your next stop, spouting water sometimes up to 40m high!
Þingvellir National Park: Thingvellir National Park a UNESCO world heritage site. Here the Icelandic history and great geological wonders come together, making the place one of Iceland‘s most interesting sites.
