Golden Circle Classic and Black Beach ATV Tour
The Golden Circle Classic is our bestselling day tour! Follow in the footsteps of the vikings of old as you walk down into the rift valley where the American and Eurasian continental plates are literally pulling apart at Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the birthplace of the oldest existing parliament. Witness the steaming geothermal springs as the ground trembles and hot water spouts spectacularly skywards from the famous Strokkur Geyser at home of the one-and-only original geyser and Iceland's most iconic natural attraction. Experience the magnificence and power of Gullfoss Waterfall, a set of glacial river cascades falling 32 meters into a narrow canyon with a thunderous roar.
After seeing the must-see attractions on the Golden Circle we drive the tour up a notch and get behind the wheel of an ATV (Quad bike) for an unforgettable ride along Iceland’s South Coast. Follow your guide along black sand beaches and admire the dramatic volcanic landscapes.
You will begin by riding along an inland route that will eventually lead you onto the beach. Your guide will carefully explain the history and geology of this natural place. This one hour tour is filled with adrenaline and incredible views for a short but sweet quad adventure.
Join our tour and step aboard one of our new buses, fully equipped with WiFi connected computer tablets for each guest. The tablets provide you with a continuous stream of relevant information along the journey with a GPS synced Audio Guide, available with a choice of 10 languages. Along the tour our local hosts will make your experience comfortable and are happy to answer any questions you might have about our peculiar country. In each seat you will also find a USB outlet to charge any of your devices.
