Private Winter Golden Circle Tour with Northern Lights

Golden Circle and a chance to see the northern lights in one day (upgrade to driver-guide also possible).

With departure times around noon, this tour is perfect for those who have had a long day previously. Depending on the month, our tours can commence as early as 11 am or as late as 2 pm. For a deeper insight into history and geology, consider upgrading your driver to one of our knowledgeable tour guides.

The Golden Circle is a popular tourist route in Iceland, known for its iconic natural landmarks and historical sites. It includes three primary attractions: the majestic waterfall Gullfoss, the geothermal area of Geysir with its erupting hot springs, and Þingvellir National Park, where visitors can witness the continental drift between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.

In the winter months, the days are short, but we ensure you have ample time to explore the sites before embarking on our northern lights hunt. As the name suggests, it's a hunt that may not always be successful due to unpredictable weather conditions. However, the excitement of searching for breaks in the clouds while awaiting the auroras can be an adventure in itself.

Þingvellir, located in southwestern Iceland, is a place of profound historical and geological significance. Designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Þingvellir is where the Alþingi, one of the world’s oldest parliaments, convened annually from 930 AD to 1798 AD. The site showcases the assembly’s outdoor meeting grounds, set against a stunning backdrop of rugged cliffs and the crystal-clear waters of the Silfra Fissure.

Beyond its historical importance, Þingvellir is situated in a rift valley where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates meet. Visitors can literally walk between these plates along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, making it a remarkable geological site. The park’s natural beauty, cultural significance, and unique geological features make Þingvellir a must-visit destination for those exploring Iceland.
