Tour Map and Itinerary
Day - 01 - Welcome to Iceland
Your memorable, Iceland adventure begins the very moment you arrive at Keflavik Airport. Once you pick up your rental vehicle, you’ll head directly for Reykjavik and your exciting, first night in Iceland.
If your flight arrives early enough, we have a great suggestion for starting your trip off the right way: Plan a visit to Iceland’s world-famous Blue Lagoon. Be sure to pack your swimsuit, so you can take a relaxing dip in the Lagoon’s soothing, geothermal waters, before heading to your hotel.
Driving Distance
Approximately 50 km (30 miles)
Reykjavik
Day - 02 - The Golden Circle
You start the day by driving to Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO world heritage site and one of the geological wonders of the world where you can see the effects of the tectonic plate movements which have opened various cracks and fissures in the earth’s crust. You continue to the famous Geysir Area where the Strokkur hot spring ejects its water column high into the air every 5 – 10 minutes and where numerous small springs are boil and bubble. Afterwards you only have a short drive to reach Gullfoss, surely one of the country’s most beautiful waterfalls.
Driving Distance
Approximately 172 km (108 miles)
Reykjavik
Day - 03 - Departure
Now it is time to head back home, after an amazing journey through one of the world’s most picturesque landscapes. You will drive back to KeflavÃk Airport for your flight back home. Depending on your flight time, you may be able to enjoy your last day strolling around ReykjavÃk. Or, even better, consider booking an extra night in ReykjavÃk to really give yourself time to experience all the amazing things Iceland’s capital city has to offer.
