Highlights
I will be your guide on this private tour. I was born in Iceland and am the owner of this business. I have been working as a guide for 10 years now, and I love what I´m doing. I look at it as a privilege to have the opportunity to show people around this beautiful island. The Golden Circle is the most popular tour in Iceland. Almost too popular. I prefer to start the tours early to try to be ahead of the crowd. I know you will enjoy doing this tour with me in my roomy and comfortable van. Pétur Helgason

Itinerary
Probably the best place on Earth to see what happens when two tectonic plates diverge. The rift valley, formed over 8000 years, has resulted in the land sinking by 40m.
We will make a short stop there to see where the locals bake their rye bread in the boiling geothermal sand.
At this dairy farm, we can taste their homemade ice cream while meeting the Icelandic cows and the calves.
This famous hot spring that other similar hot springs are named after is dormant at the moment, but his little brother Strokkur is keeping up the show and erupting every 5-10 min
Gullfoss, the Golden waterfall in English, is by many considered to be the most beautiful on the island. It´s powerful in the glacier river Hvita, coming from Langjokull, the second largest glacier in Iceland.

About Reykjavik
Reykjavik is the northernmost capital of any nation, a colourful, compact city of art and music that opens onto Iceland's volcanic landscapes.
The landmark Hallgrímskirkja church, its tower inspired by basalt columns, rises above streets of brightly painted houses. Down by the harbour, the glass-fronted Harpa concert hall shimmers on the water, and the Sun Voyager sculpture faces the sea toward Mount Esja. Laugavegur, the main shopping street, is lined with design shops, cafés and bars.
Top-ranked sights in Reykjavik: Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss, Harpa.
