Explore Iceland's breathtaking nature on a full-day Golden Circle tour departing from Skarfabakki port.
Unlike traditional tours, we don't have a set departure time for this tour; instead, we wait for the cruise to dock before beginning our adventure, allowing up to 2 hours after the cruise has docked.
Our commitment to an intimate experience is evident in our small group approach. With fewer participants, our knowledgeable guides can focus more on each guest, providing unparalleled customer service.
The Golden Circle, renowned for its proximity to Reykjavik, offers diverse landscapes and captivating tales from Iceland's settlement era to the present day. Immerse yourself in this popular route, where nature and culture intertwine seamlessly.
On this tour, we will guide you to the stunning Gullfoss Waterfall, the impressive Geysir, the charming Efstidalur dairy farm, and the picturesque Thingvellir National Park, where we will also visit the breathtaking Öxararfoss waterfall.

5.00I took the tour with Gonzalo, and it was truly enjoyable. He not only explained the places on the tour, but also constantly shared information about the different points of interest along the way, as well as the history and culture of the area. The places on the tour are beautiful; I personally loved Gullfoss Waterfall.
Great Golden Circle experience

5.00We loved our Golden Circle tour with Carlos. Carlos was so informative and as a newer Iceland resident, it was so interesting to hear his perspective. We loved the geyser, the golden falls, the crater, the tectonic plates, the tomato farm, and the ice cream farm. I’d highly recommend this tour.
Simon is great!
