   25 minEntrée incluse

3. Gullfoss is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the country, if not the most beautiful. The Hvitá River falls here in two stages into a narrow gorge.

   30 min

4. The next stop is at the Haukadalur geothermal area, where the famous geyser is located. The namesake of the springs is rarely active anymore, but you can experience the up to 25 m high eruptions of the Strokkur geyser about every 5 to 10 minutes. The stay is long enough so that you can check out the numerous hot springs and several eruptions of the Strokkurs.

   45 min

5. Brúarfoss waterfall is famous for its exceptionally vibrant turquoise-blue water color, caused by mineral-rich springs in the river. The water of Brúarfoss falls in several stages over a varied landscape of lava rock, creating a breathtaking panorama.

6. There are numerous hot springs in and around Lake Laugarvatn. We stop at the lakeshore and see several hot springs, which are also used to bake bread.

7. The last stop is in Þingvellir National Park. The Icelandic parliament Alþing was founded here in 930. The Almannagjá gorge, which was created by continental drift, is explored on foot. We also visit the photogenic Öxarárfoss waterfall.

   50 min

8. Short stop at the Efsti-Dalur farm, where there is an ice cream factory where ice cream is made from the milk of the farm's own cows. Icelanders love ice cream at any time of the day and you have the opportunity to find out why Icelandic ice cream is so popular.

About Reykjavik

Reykjavik, la capitale la plus au nord du monde, ville colorée d'art et de musique ouverte sur les paysages volcaniques islandais.

L'église Hallgrímskirkja, dont la tour s'inspire des orgues basaltiques, s'élève au-dessus de rues de maisons aux couleurs vives. Près du port, la salle de concert Harpa, aux façades de verre, miroite sur l'eau, et la sculpture Sun Voyager fait face à la mer en direction du mont Esja. Laugavegur, la principale rue commerçante, est bordée de boutiques de design, de cafés et de bars.
