Golden Circle and Secret Lagoon
1 day
About this activity
On our Golden Circle & Secret Lagoon Tour, you will experience a series of remarkable and diverse sites in the Southwest of Iceland. Start the day with a leisurely swim in the Secret Lagoon, one of the oldest natural geothermal pools in Iceland, nestled amongst bubbling hot springs and a small erupting geyser. Steam rises from the surrounding geothermal area as you relax in the warm mineral-rich water, which holds at 38-40*C year-round. Then, we embark upon the quintessential Icelandic tour to the Geysir geothermal area in the Haukadalur Valley, where the Strokkur fountain geyser spouts water high into the air every few minutes, before visiting the majestic Golden Waterfall of Gullfoss, considered by many to be Icelands most beautiful waterfall. Then, onward to the historic geological wonder Þingvellir National Park, which is not only the seat of the worlds oldest still-functioning parliament (where the Icelandic Alingi first convened in 930 AD) but is considered the best place on earth to view the geologic meeting point of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, pulling apart year by year. Join us for a day that balances relaxation with exploration.
