Golden Circle and Glacier Super Jeep Day Tour from Reykjavik

Experience many of Iceland's natural gems in a magnificent day tour – and do it in style and comfort of our Super Jeeps. Departure from Reykjavik to volcano Hengill and Nesjavellir where we can learn about how the enormous geothermal power is harnessed to provide Reykjavik with both hot water and electricity without polluting. From there it's only a short drive to Thingvellir where the oldest parliament in world was founded and you can see the tectonic plates boundaries. After Thingvellir we cross the mountain road of Lyngdalsheidi towards Geysir and Gullfoss where we stop for lunch. Seeing the geyser Strokkur spout boiling water 25-30 m high in the air is fantastic nature experience and the Geysir area has numerous other hot springs. After seeing Iceland's most famous waterfall, Gullfoss up close and listening to it's roaring thunder as it cascades 32 metres down the mighty glacial river Hvita we drive a mountain track to Iceland's second largest glacier, Langjokull where you have the option of renting a snowmobile and blaze across the white plains of the glacier.  If you decide not to go snowmobiling, driving on the snow and seeing the glacier and the barren landscape is still big fun and extraordinary. On the way back to Reykavik we make a short photo stop at the crater lake Kerid. Once in Reykjavik we will drop you off at your hotel or a restaurant of your choice.

We had a fantastic day on the Golden Circle tour with Jon. He was friendly, knowledgeable and entertaining and really made the day special. I cannot think of a single thing i would have changed about the day. Thank you. - James Pinkerton, USA
