Highlights
See Iceland's classic Golden Circle in a small group with a local driver-guide, not in a big coach. We pick you up at your hotel and travel in a comfortable vehicle chosen for the size of the group, so the day moves calmly with real time at each stop. At Thingvellir National Park you walk through the Almannagjá gorge between two continents and see where Iceland's first parliament met. On the way you meet Icelandic horses. At the Geysir area, Strokkur erupts every few minutes and there is time for lunch at your own cost. Gullfoss, the "Golden Falls", drops in two steps into a deep canyon. The last stop is Kerið, a red volcanic crater with a turquoise lake, with your entrance ticket included. Your driver-guide shares stories about nature, history and everyday life in Iceland, and drops you back at your hotel in Reykjavík.

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.
