Thingvellir National Park

Þingvellir National Park is the perfect starting point for your -Golden Circle tour-, offering stunning scenery and rich history. Founded in 930, it’s home to the world’s first parliament, where Icelandic settlers met annually to shape laws. The parliament remained here until 1798, and in 2004, Þingvellir became a -UNESCO World Heritage Site-. Beyond history, Þingvellir sits on the -Mid-Atlantic Ridge-, where the Eurasian and North American plates drift apart. It’s the only place on Earth where this rift is visible above sea level. From the -Hákið viewing platform-, you’ll stand on the edge of the American continent. A short walk through the park leads to Öxarárfoss, a scenic waterfall with its own unique history.

We’ll enjoy a delightful lunch at the charming Efsti-Dalur dairy farm, nestled in the picturesque Icelandic countryside. This unique farm-to-table experience takes place on a family-run property with deep roots—proudly operated by the same family since 1750. Their dedication to tradition and quality shines through in every dish. The menu at Efsti-Dalur features delicious, locally sourced ingredients, prepared with care and authenticity. From hearty homemade meals to fresh dairy products, every bite reflects the essence of Icelandic hospitality. And for dessert, prepare to indulge in a true highlight: their legendary homemade ice cream. Crafted right on the farm from their own dairy, it’s often hailed as the best ice cream in the world—rich, creamy, and bursting with flavor. A sweet treat that’s not to be missed! The lunch and Icecream are NOT included in the price of the tour.
