A Curated Golden Circle Journey
Kerið Crater – A Burst of Volcanic Colour
Begin your morning at Kerið, a striking volcanic caldera filled with bright aquamarine water. Surrounded by steep red and black lava slopes, the crater offers one of the Golden Circle’s most dramatic visual contrasts, an elegant first stop with sweeping countryside views.
Gullfoss – The Golden Waterfall
Continue to Gullfoss, where glacial water thunders over two spectacular drops into a rugged canyon. Mist rises into the air and rainbows often appear in the sunlight, an unforgettable display of Iceland’s raw power and one of its most iconic sights.
Geysir Geothermal Area – Iceland’s Natural Fireworks
Next, explore the Geysir geothermal field, a bubbling landscape of steam vents, mineral pools, and Strokkur, the geyser that erupts every few minutes. Watch boiling water shoot skyward and learn how volcanic forces shape this dynamic region.
Friðheimar Tomato Farm – Guided Greenhouse Tour & Lunch Among the Vines
By midday, step into the warm, sunlit greenhouse at Friðheimar, a family-run tomato farm powered by geothermal energy.
Your experience includes:
- A guided tour explaining sustainable greenhouse farming
- Insight into geothermal heat, pure Icelandic water & natural light
- An all-inclusive lunch served inside the greenhouse
Dine among rows of vibrant tomato plants, taste their famous tomato soup, freshly baked bread, and creative tomato-themed dishes, a countryside culinary experience that feels unique, atmospheric, and unforgettable.
Þingvellir National Park – Where Worlds Meet
Your final stop is Þingvellir, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates drift apart. Walk between ancient cliffs, explore clear spring-fed streams, and learn how this dramatic valley became the birthplace of Iceland’s parliament over 1,000 years ago.
A Smooth Return to Reykjavík
As the day winds down, relax on your drive back to Reykjavík with the landscape unfolding around you, volcanic colours, powerful waterfalls, erupting geysers, greenhouse warmth, and the timeless beauty of Þingvellir captured in one perfectly curated luxury experience.
