Day description
ARRIVAL IN ICELAND!

Upon arrival you will take a shuttle bus from Keflavík Airport to your hotel in central Reykjavík. Depending on what time you land, you will have the rest of the day or evening to explore Reykjavík. The capital is simply brimming with interesting sights and incredible restaurants. Icelandic cuisine is known for its incredible quality and for taking inspiration from the country’s beautiful nature, so why not round off the day with an unforgettable dinner at one of Reykjavík’s many restaurants.
Golden Circle

After breakfast, enjoy one of Iceland’s most iconic experiences – a full-day tour of the Golden Circle.
Your first stop is Friðheimar, a sustainable greenhouse where tomatoes are grown year-round using geothermal energy. Learn how Iceland's natural forces support eco-friendly farming, and enjoy a taste of fresh tomato products (optional).
Next, visit the Geysir geothermal area, where Strokkur erupts every few minutes, sending a powerful water column sky-high.
Then continue to the majestic Gullfoss waterfall, where the Hvítá river crashes in two dramatic stages into a deep canyon – often accompanied by shimmering rainbows in the mist.
The final stop is Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where you can walk between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates and stand on the site of the world’s oldest democratic parliament, founded in 930.
Return to Reykjavík in the late afternoon. Evening at your leisure.
REYKJAVÍK AND WHALE WATCHING

Breakfast at the hotel. The morning is yours to make your own discoveries in Reykjavík. Be sure to visit the popular Hallgrímskirkja Church which is located on a hill in central Reykjavík. At 70 metres in height, it is the tallest building in Iceland. You can also relax in one of the many heated outdoor pools located all around Reykjavík – a popular pastime among Icelanders themselves. Right in the heart of the city you’ll find Laugar Spa, which is the largest spa facility anywhere in the Nordic Region.
After lunch you will head to the harbour and board the Hafsulan catamaran for an exciting adventure on the open water. There are few places in the world where wild and untamed nature is as accessible as in Iceland. The entire south coast of Iceland is home to many different types of dolphins and whales. This trip will hopefully bring you up close to dolphins, minke whales, humpback whales and even orcas whales. And if conditions are right you may even be lucky enough to spot the largest animal on the planet, the mighty blue whale!
The evening will be yours to enjoy as you please. If you like to dance, you won’t be disappointed. Reykjavík is home to a great many pubs and night clubs where you can dance away into the wee hours of the morning.
SCENIC SOUTH COAST

Breakfast at the hotel. Today will take you to an array of scenic spots and important sites in the history of Iceland. The lowlands of southern Iceland are home to luscious farmlands, roaring waterfalls, sandy beaches, mighty glaciers and idyllic towns. You will have the chance to see a great many natural phenomena over the course of this single day. From Reykjavík we will head southward towards Hvolsvöllur and then onwards to the Seljalandsfoss Waterfall where visitors can creep in behind the rushing waters for a backstage view. The tour will then continue onwards to the slightly larger waterfall of Skógarfoss which is surrounded by an area of luscious greenery in the summertime. Road conditions permitting, we will then pass the glacier of Solheimajökull and experience its mighty stature from up close.
The tour will then continue onwards to the town of Vík on the south coast where we will stop for lunch. The area around Vík is home to impressive black beaches formed by volcanic sand, coastal cliffs with rich bird life and some incredible lava formations. A varied and exciting day that will show off some of Iceland’s many incredible contrasts. Afterwards you will then head back to Reykjavík to arrive at about 18:00. The evening will be yours to enjoy as you like.
Reykjavik and the Blue Lagoon

Breakfast at the hotel. After lunch the highlight of the day will be a trip to the Blue Lagoon which is about 45 minutes from Reykjavík. The Blue Lagoon is a warm and inviting oasis nestled in a rugged lava-formed landscape. The contrasts will take your breath away as you relax the steam in the 38°C water of the outdoor pool.
The lagoon receives its water directly from geothermal sources as deep as 2,000 metres underground. Also there are an indoor lagoon and a geothermal sauna. Upon arrival you will be invited to enjoy a welcome drink as you settle into this unique and revitalising lagoon. Once you are feeling fully relaxed, you will then head back renewed and rejuvenated to Reykjavík.
After lunch the afternoon will be yours to make your own discoveries in the world’s most northerly capital city. Reykjavík is simply brimming with interesting museums, design stores and incredible restaurants.
