Highlights:

1. Thingvellir National Park: Begin your journey at Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where history and geology come together. As you walk through the park, marvel at the stunning Öxarárfoss waterfall and the dramatic continental rift between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. Discover the historical significance of Thingvellir as the birthplace of the world's oldest surviving parliament, the Althing, established in 930 AD.

2. Geysir Geothermal Area: Next, explore the Geysir Geothermal Area, home to the famous Great Geysir and Strokkur geyser. Watch in awe as Strokkur erupts every 6-10 minutes, shooting water up to 30 meters (98 feet) high. Take time to appreciate the captivating mud pools, fumaroles, and other geothermal features that surround the geysers, while learning about the unique geological forces at play in this area.

3. Gullfoss Waterfall: Witness the raw power of nature at Gullfoss, the "Golden Waterfall," one of Iceland's most iconic waterfalls. Stand at the viewing platform and feel the refreshing mist on your face as you watch the Hvítá River plunge into a 32-meter (105 feet) deep canyon, creating a breathtaking double-tiered cascade. Learn about the history of Gullfoss, including the brave efforts of Sigridur Tómasdóttir, who fought to preserve this stunning natural wonder from industrial exploitation.

4. Kerið Crater Lake: Conclude your Golden Circle adventure with a visit to Kerið, a volcanic crater lake renowned for its vibrant red, orange, and yellow hues. Formed over 3,000 years ago, Kerið offers a striking contrast to the lush summer landscapes of the Golden Circle. Take a leisurely walk around the crater rim or descend to the shores of the strikingly turquoise lake to experience the full beauty of this geological gem.
