Departure from Reykjavík
Begin your adventure with pick-up at a designated central meeting point in Reykjavík. Enjoy a comfortable ride in a modern, heated bus as your guide introduces the Golden Circle route and shares fascinating stories about Iceland’s geology, folklore, and history.

Kerið Volcanic Crater
Our first stop is the striking Kerið Crater, a 6,500-year-old volcanic caldera filled with vivid blue water. Stroll along the rim for panoramic views or walk down to the lake’s edge to admire the red and black slopes that frame this natural gem.

The Secret Lagoon (Gamla Laugin)
Next, unwind in the Secret Lagoon, Iceland’s oldest natural pool. Tucked away in the small village of Flúðir, this geothermal haven has welcomed visitors since 1891. Soak in the warm, mineral-rich waters surrounded by steam and mossy landscapes — a true Icelandic experience of relaxation and serenity.

Geysir Geothermal Area

The Secret Lagoon
Our final stop is Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where you can literally walk between continents. This historic site marks the birthplace of Iceland’s first parliament and sits on the rift between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates — a perfect blend of nature and history.

From Geysers to Serenity – Discover Iceland’s Golden Circle & Secret Lagoon
Step into the beating heart of Iceland, where the earth breathes through steaming vents, waterfalls thunder into canyons, and ancient legends linger in the air. The Golden Circle & Secret Lagoon Tour from Reykjavík is your invitation to explore Iceland’s most iconic landmarks — and then unwind in the warm embrace of a natural geothermal pool. From the erupting Strokkur geyser and the mighty Gullfoss waterfall to the peaceful waters of the Secret Lagoon, this full-day adventure perfectly blends excitement and relaxation.
Follow the route that captures Iceland’s raw beauty and spirit. Walk through history at Þingvellir National Park, where continents drift apart and Iceland’s first parliament was founded in 930 AD. Feel the ground tremble beneath your feet in the Geysir geothermal area, home to the ever-active Strokkur geyser that erupts skyward every few minutes. Marvel at the Golden Falls of Gullfoss, one of the country’s most breathtaking natural wonders. And after witnessing Iceland’s power, find your calm at the Secret Lagoon (Gamla Laugin) — a quiet geothermal sanctuary surrounded by steam and soft moss, where locals have bathed for over a century.
