Itinerary

On this tailored journey, you'll discover why the Golden Circle and South Coast are Iceland's must-see locations. 

Start with the Golden Circle, where Þingvellir National Park showcases unique geological features, Geysir puts on a dramatic display, and Gullfoss Waterfall makes a lasting impression with its powerful cascade. Next, explore the South Coast, famous for its black sand beaches, impressive waterfalls, and rugged coastal terrain. Each location highlights a different aspect of Iceland’s diverse landscapes. 

We handle all the details, picking you up from your hotel and ensuring a smooth return so you can focus on soaking in every moment of this exclusive exploration.

The Golden Circle is packed with so many unique experiences, making it an essential destination for any Iceland trip! With our bespoke tour, you'll have a private guide and customized itinerary to fully enjoy each site.

In Thingvellir National Park, you can stroll through a valley nestled between the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates, offering the unique opportunity to walk between two continents! What’s more, this UNESCO World Heritage Site holds historical significance as the birthplace of Iceland’s first parliament.

In Haukadalur Valley, Iceland's renowned geothermal area, you'll discover two of the country's most famous geysers. The Great Geysir, one of the oldest such phenomena globally, inspired the name for all other erupting hot springs worldwide. Though currently asleep, it could erupt at any moment! Nearby, Strokkur, Iceland's most active geyser, puts on a spectacular show every few minutes. 

Your private guide will ensure you get the best views and insights into these natural phenomena.

Gullfoss Waterfall, a majestic two-tiered giant, greets visitors with its roaring power and the spray from its tall cascades. The first drop measures 36 feet (11 meters), followed by a second stage of 69 feet (21 meters). On sunny days, you can see the rainbows form over the falls, creating a dreamy and surreal atmosphere.

The South Coast of Iceland has it all: world-famous black sand beaches, towering waterfalls, and majestic glaciers, perfect for snowy adventures! Our custom tour provides private transport and a personal guide, offering an exclusive exploration of this stunning region. 

Visit Reynisfjara Beach and immerse yourself in the folktales and legends that surround this mystical place. Stroll among the shimmering ice blocks scattered along the shores of Diamond Beach and witness the surreal plane wreck on Sólheimasandur Beach. Don't forget your camera - you'll want to capture every moment!

When it comes to the waterfalls along Iceland's southern coastline, each one is uniquely captivating and absolutely worth exploring. Two of the most popular ones are Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss. You can actually walk behind the spectacular cascade of the former. Be prepared for some splashes, and let your guide ensure you’re in the right spot for unforgettable views.

There's so much more to discover on the South Coast. Share your preferences with us, and we’ll tailor these experiences to make your Icelandic adventure truly exceptional.

Enhance your Golden Circle and South Coast journey with these customizable activities:

  • Soak in a natural hot spring or spa
  • Chase the Northern Lights in winter
