The Golden Circle Direct, one of the most popular Icelandic tours, visiting the world-famous Geysir geothermal area and Gullfoss before moving on to visit Thingvellir National Park.

Our guide to Golden Circle Direct Iceland

The Gullfoss and Geysir bus tour takes you on a day trip to see the world-famous Geysir geothermal area and Gullfoss, the queen of Icelandic waterfalls, as well as Thingvellir National Park.

The Geysir geothermal area boasts spouting springs, including Strokkur, the most active geyser in Iceland. At Gullfoss you are allowed to stand next to the amazing waterfall, watching enormous quantities of water tumble violently into a deep, meandering gorge.

Whether you take the morning or the afternoon tour, you will spend your time encountering a cross-section of Iceland's natural wonders and geological phenomena at Thingvellir National Park, an area of historical and geological significance.

This is the perfect tour for anyone that has a limited amount of time in Iceland, as the tour spends less time at each attraction.
