Overview

Save money with the Golden Circle and Northern Lights tour combo! 

Golden Circle Tour:

Visit the geothermal area around the incredible spouting hot springs of Geysir and Strokkur on the Golden Circle tour. Continue to the picturesque waterfall Gullfoss ('Golden Waterfall'), located in the canyon of Olfusa river. Explore the waterfalls edge and feel the mist of the glacial water on your face. Proceed to the Þingvellir National Park, a place of fascinating geology and picturesque landscapes. The plains of Þingvellir also played host to the Icelandic parliament Alþingi, founded in the year 930 AD. You will arrive back in Reykjavík around 18:30. You will have a few hours to spend before you join our Northern Lights tour.

Northern Lights Tour:

The tour will take you to the place where these Northern Lights are most likely to be seen, based on weather forecast. The Northern Lights, also known as the Aurora Borealis, are a spectacular natural phenomenon, spraying the Arctic sky with a fantastic riot of colours. Northern Lights can be seen when certain weather conditions are fulfilled, usually during crispy cold and tranquil evenings. After the Northern Lights Tour, you will be dropped back to the starting point.

    best tour I every did !!!!

  • Tristan Dalton

    The only reason for 4 stars, is because the Northern Lights haven't yet happened, due to unfortunate weather! The rest has been absolutely awesome!
