Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon & Kerið Crater | Small Group Tour
What your day looks like
This is the most popular day tour in Iceland. Geysers, the Golden waterfall, Thingvellir, and the Blue Lagoon are classics. We want to add something unique to your experience, and that’s why we will also visit the big volcanic crater called Kerid. The crater is 270 m wide and more than 55 m deep. There is a lake at the bottom of the crater, which gives it a little bit of magic. The lake is almost 14 m deep. Thingvellir National Park is the national shrine of all Icelanders. It lies within the belt of volcanic activity and fissures which pass across Iceland, a part of the mid-Atlantic ridge, the junction of the American and Eurasian tectonic plates. It is a nice feeling to stand with your right foot in Europe and your left one in America. Geysir – the biggest geysers of Haukadalur are Strokkur and Geysir itself, which gives the others their name. Strokkur erupts every 5 to 10 minutes, throwing a column of water into the air to a height of 20 to 30 meters. Gullfoss is one of the most amazing waterfalls in Iceland. At the end of the day, we take you to the Blue Lagoon for a relaxing time in the baths. Please note that the entrance ticket to the Blue Lagoon is not included, and please book the ticket well in advance. We will be arriving in the lagoon at 5 pm so please reserve your ticket at that time.

Our guide was amazing - really made it very educational and we all came away with an understanding of Iceland infrastructure, landscape, language and culture. Best excursion of the week.
We had a wonderful time on our Golden Circle tour. Our guide was timely, friendly, well informed and he was able to answer our questions throughout the tour. I would highly recommend this tour to visitors to Iceland.
