Iceland's Golden Circle in Depth

< View Other Tours

Tour Overview

Experience the midnight sun on this five-day adventure of Iceland’s southern coast. Visit all the highlights of the country’s iconic Golden Circle – soaking in the steamy geothermal waters of the Secret Lagoon and marvelling at the eruptions of the Strokkur Geysir, before strapping on the crampons and hiking across the Solheimajokull Glacier, feeling the mist of waterfalls on your face. If you're lucky, you might even see a whisp of the Northern Lights!

Trip Highlights

Why you'll love this trip

  • Make the most of Iceland at night during the midnight sun – a period in summer when the sun doesn't set for almost 24 hours!

  • Revel in an I’m-so-far-from-home moment as you explore one of Europe’s largest ice caps on an adventurous walk over the Solheimajokull Glacier, and bask in the spray of the spectacular Skogafoss and Seljalandsfoss falls.

  • Visit a local art workshop and chat with the artists in a rugged, off-the-beaten-track harbour town.

  • See the sights that make Iceland’s famous Golden Circle so celebrated, from Gulfoss Waterfall to Strokkur Geysir and Thingvellir National Park.

  • Soak in a geothermal pool at the lesser-known Secret Lagoon – is there anything more quintessentially Icelandic?
