Overview

Explore Iceland’s breathtaking landscapes with this Golden Circle Tour & Northern Lights Cruise bundle offer. Discover geothermal wonders, stunning waterfalls, and historic sites on the Golden Circle tour, then set sail under the stars to witness the mesmerizing Northern Lights at night.

Northern Lights Cruise:

Experience the stunning beauty of the Northern Lights on a thrilling winter cruise. Watch the surreal dance of colours across the starry sky, with the gentle lull of the ocean beneath. Reykjavik offers ideal conditions from September to April for viewing the auroras. The boat features heated indoor areas, an onboard café, and a 360° viewing platform. Enjoy expert commentary about the auroras, with photos available via email. If it gets chilly, borrow an overall, and bring a hat and gloves. Meet at the Old Harbour in downtown Reykjavik, exchange your pre-paid voucher for boarding tickets, and sail into Faxaflói Bay to chase the mystical Northern Lights, away from the city's bright lights.

Golden Circle Tour:

Visit Iceland for the adventure of a lifetime on the Golden Circle route, a 300 km stretch that connects the country’s top attractions. Explore Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site located at the junction of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates and learn about its significance as Iceland’s ancient parliament site. Experience the geothermal wonders of The Great Geysir, where Strokkur erupts every eight minutes. Marvel at the misty terrain of Gullfoss Waterfall, where water cascades 32 meters into a canyon, creating rainbows on sunny days. Finally, visit Kerið Volcanic Crater, featuring a picturesque lake and a walking path around the top of the crater for breathtaking views.
