Thingvellir National Park After picking you up from your preferred location in Reykjavik, we make our way to Thingvellir National Park where Iceland’s first parliament was established and is nowadays identified as a UNESCO World Heritage Park. You’ll get the chance wander around and explore the surrounding area at your own pace and see the fissure dividing the Eurasian and North American continental plates that can be found in the park as well. Bruarfoss Waterfall - (Included from April 1st) This stop will be replacing our farm visit and ice-cream tasting from April 1st 2024 This waterfall is truly a hidden gem located into Iceland's secret breathtaking landscapes, often referred to as "Iceland’s Bluest Waterfall". Compared to other waterfalls, its size can appear quite small and its cascading waters through lava rocks create a scene of unique serenity into your soul! Geysir Geothermal Area On our way back, we’ll be sure to make a stop at the Geysir in Haukadalur Valley. As the geyser Strokkur erupts every few minutes and at a height of about 20 meters, it is guaranteed that you won’t miss it! Depending on the weather and at your driver’s discretion, we’ll make a couple more exciting pit stops along our way to guarantee you have an unforgettable experience. Gullfoss Waterfall After Þingvellir you’ll be driven to Gullfoss waterfall, one of Iceland’s most popular ones situated on the rafting river Hvitá, located about one hours’ drive from Þingvellir. On our way back, we’ll be sure to make a stop at the Geysir in Haukadalur Valley.
