A private Silver Circle tour from Reykjavík with your own driver-guide: Deildartunguhver, Reykholt, Hraunfossar, the Into the Glacier ice tunnel at Langjökull and a soak at Hvammsvík Hot Springs.

The Silver Circle is West Iceland's quieter answer to the Golden Circle: Europe's most powerful hot spring, waterfalls that pour out of a lava field and, at its heart, a walk into the ice of Langjökull glacier. This private tour ends with a soak at Hvammsvík Hot Springs on the way home.

Your group gets a dedicated driver-guide and a vehicle that belongs entirely to you for the day. No fixed pace, no waiting for other passengers, no compromises.

At Deildartunguhver, boiling water bubbles out of the ground in clouds of steam. In Reykholt you visit the home of Snorri Sturluson, the medieval writer behind many of the Norse myths we know today. At Hraunfossar, clear water seeps out of a lava field in countless small falls, while next door Barnafoss rushes through a narrow gorge.

From Húsafell, a glacier vehicle takes you up onto Langjökull for Into the Glacier: a man-made ice tunnel that leads you deep inside the glacier, between walls of blue ice. After a stop at the Fossatún waterfalls, you relax at Hvammsvík Hot Springs, natural geothermal pools right at the shoreline of Hvalfjörður.

Throughout the day your driver-guide shares stories, sagas and practical tips about Iceland's nature, history and culture.

Full details of each stop are in the itinerary. Pick-up and drop-off anywhere in the Capital Area, including the cruise terminals, is included. The order of stops may be adjusted on the day due to weather, road conditions or your ice tunnel time.

Choose a Private Sedan for 1-3 guests or a Private Van for up to 8 guests. One price per vehicle, not per person.

Pick-up in the Capital Area
Your driver-guide picks you up at your accommodation anywhere in the Capital Area, or at your cruise terminal, and you head north through Hvalfjörður into West Iceland.
Drive through West Iceland
As you travel into West Iceland, the landscape begins to open up around you. You will see wide lava fields, flowing rivers, and distant mountains in every direction. The peaceful scenery makes the drive enjoyable and relaxing. Your guide will share simple and interesting stories about Iceland’s nature, people, and history. This part of the journey helps you connect with the land before reaching the main stops.
Deildartunguhver and Reykholt
First comes Deildartunguhver, Europe's most powerful hot spring, where boiling water bubbles out of the ground and steam rolls across the fields. A few minutes away lies Reykholt, home of Snorri Sturluson, the 13th-century writer who preserved many of the stories of the Norse gods. His old geothermal bathing pool, Snorralaug, can still be seen today.
Hraunfossar and Barnafoss waterfalls
Next, you visit two unique waterfalls located close to each other. Hraunfossar is calm and beautiful, with clear water flowing gently out from under a lava field. It creates many small streams that stretch along the river. Just a short walk away is Barnafoss, which is very different. Here, strong glacial water rushes quickly through a narrow rocky channel, creating a powerful and dramatic scene.
Into the Glacier at Langjökull
At Húsafell your glacier adventure begins. A specially built glacier vehicle takes you up onto Langjökull, Iceland's second largest glacier, where you walk into a man-made ice tunnel deep inside the ice, surrounded by blue walls, and learn how glaciers form and change.
Fossatún Waterfalls
After the glacier, you stop at Fossatun, a peaceful area known for its waterfalls and local stories. Water flows gently over dark volcanic rocks, creating a calm and scenic setting. This place is also linked to Icelandic folklore. According to legend, a troll lives here and protects the area. You can explore small paths and enjoy the mix of nature and storytelling.
Sources chaudes de Hvammsvík
On the way back, unwind at Hvammsvík Hot Springs: natural geothermal pools set right at the shoreline of Hvalfjörður, the perfect way to warm up after a day on the glacier.
Drive back
A short, scenic drive back along the coast, with time to share the highlights of the day.
