Your tour begins at 12pm when your guide picks you up at your Reykjavik hotel. Travel on the Golden Circle to your first stop, Thingvellir National Park. A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2004, Thingvellir is home to the world’s oldest existing parliament established in 930 AD. Explore the natural wonders and see the largest lake in Iceland. Next, visit Geysir and Strokkur, examples of the raw power of Icelandic nature. Geysir is a geothermal field that’s the remains of an old volcano. Strokkur is an extremely active geyser that erupts every 5-10 minutes. The final stop is Gullfoss, named the Golden Waterfall due to the rainbows that offer golden colors above the gorges on days with good weather. Feel the mist as you get close to the waterfall and watch the glacier water rush down. Finally, it’s time to chase the Northern Lights. Sit back and relax as your guide drives to the best location to view the spectacle for the night. Watch the vibrant colors dance in the sky before driving back to Reykjavik for drop-off back at your hotel.

Jeep was tight for 6 plus driver. There were 4 of us so it was fine. Driver/ guide was fabulous! He tried desperately to get us to see the lights but to no avail. Guide was informative and showed is geysers, waterfalls, shops etc. ending with a great meal at the restaurant of his suggestion.

Cancelled with less than 24 hours notice and just left stranded and too late to book a similar tour. No alternative offered. Totally let down - be very careful about booking with this operator

I booked the Golden Circle and Northern Lights Superjeep tour, and it was one of the most memorable experiences of my trip to Iceland. From start to finish, the day was packed with incredible scenery, fascinating history, and a true sense of adventure that you simply don’t get on a standard bus tour. During the day, we explored the classic Golden Circle route, i.e. Þingvellir National Park, Geysir, and Gullfoss, but what made it special was the small-group feel and the flexibility of travelling in a Superjeep. Our guide, Adam, was extremely knowledgeable, sharing Icelandic stories, geology facts, and great photo tips along the way. Walking between tectonic plates at Þingvellir and watching Strokkur erupt at Geysir were definite highlights, and Gullfoss took my breath away with its power and beauty. After daylight faded, we set off into the countryside in search of the Northern Lights. The guide went above and beyond, checking sky conditions and driving to several remote spots to find clear skies. When the auroras finally appeared, it was pure magic: green lights dancing across the sky. It is a long day, so be prepared with warm layers and patience, especially for the nighttime portion. But the combination of iconic sights, off-road adventure, and the chance to witness the aurora made it absolutely worth it. Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for an immersive and personalized Icelandic experience. An incredible blend of nature, culture, and once-in-a-lifetime moments!

Took me way over a year to write a review and I don’t even know why. This trip was absolutely breathtaking. Adam was a great guide and very knowledgeable of the area. Felt safe throughout the journey even when we hit some bad weather which just added to the adventure. Would 100% book this trip again. It’s a must do.

The Golden Circle and Northern Lights tour offers beautiful scenery and a great way to see Iceland’s main highlights in one day. The waterfalls, geysers, and national park are impressive, and when the weather is clear, the Northern Lights are truly magic. However, the aurora was not so active that night as it depends on luck and clear skies. Overall, it’s a good introduction to Iceland — best enjoyed with warm clothing and flexible expectations.

Let’s start by saying that the guide Adam was incredibly knowledgeable and to trust him when he takes you to see the northern lights. Our trip was filled with breathtaking beautiful scenery, unexpected gems, amazing hikes, and the best view we could have for the northern lights. This experience is one my husband and I won’t ever forget , thank you Adam!

When the tour guide picked us up he informed us that there had been changes to our itinerary. He told us we were going to the Secret Lagoon, which was not planned. We were not prepared to go there since our swimsuits were still wet from our trip to the Blue Lagoon. Later he told us we wouldn't be able to see the Northern Lights. He said we were going to a restaurant, which confused us because it was not on the schedule. He picked the Mika Restaurant it was awful and the kitchen or waitstaff must have been sick because we have been trying to recover from a cold or flu since we left the restaurant on Sunday 2/23/25. I think the tour company didn't want to issue a partial refund to everyone so they improvised this itinerary. The food was horrible, only one couple went in the Secret Lagoon because no one was prepared and they should have tried to reschedule the Northern Lights for another evening. Some tour companies offer a free retry if you do not see the Northern Lights on the first try. It was a waste of time and to make matters worse it was my birthday.

My husband and I had an amazing time on this tour! We were able to see so many amazing sites as well as the northern lights. We had a great time with the other couples on this trip and the tour guide, Adam, was so great! He made sure we were comfortable and answered all our questions for the whole 12 hours! Thank you so much for a wonderful time Adam!

I’m glad we did this tour with Adam! He is great, knowledgeable, friendly, and had interesting stories to share about his adventures in Iceland. I got to make new friends from other countries in this tour and explore the Golden Circle together. The weather had been so rainy and windy the days prior to this tour that we didn’t know if we would be able to see the northern lights, but we saw them! Adam knows what he’s doing and I’m very grateful he was determined to find them. The size of this group was perfect, we had to move places 3 times when chasing the northern lights, so being a small group was perfect. We stopped for dinner at this cute town and food was delicious. Overall a great experience! Also, Adam is very responsive prior to the tour and the day of, if you have any questions. I definitely recommend!
