Golden Circle sites plus Friðheimar’s geothermal tomato greenhouse. 8-hour Reykjavik day trip with guide, Wi-Fi, and great value.
“This was a huge bus, and I wished that I had booked with a smaller group. Despite that, it was a great tour. Guide Maryanne was great, very informative and made sure we kept to schedule. Though the weather wasn't great, everything was beautiful and worth seeing. The tomato soup at the greenhouse was excellent!”
Snæfellsnes and Vatnshellir in one long day: lava cave, Kirkjufell photos, sea stacks, black church, and black-sand beach vibes.
“the cave trip was very exciting as the lava caves are different to limestone caves. we saw 3 waterfalls but each was well chosen for a different feature, which made them very photogenic. our guide was very knowledgeable on Icelandic sagas which were interesting to listen to whilst travelling.”
Reykjavik to Iceland’s South Coast highlights: Skógafoss, Sólheimajökull glacier hike, Reynisfjara black sand beach, and Seljalandsfoss.
“(1) Wear a hip-length jacket because you’ll be wearing a harness on the glacier hike that must be accessible in the event of a fall. Longer jackets will need to be rolled or bunched up, which isn’t comfortable.”
