About this experience
On this tour from Reykjavik we will drive along the same path as most of our guests have through the millennia.
This milennia old tour consists of Þingvellir, Geysir and Gullfoss.
We will make some extra stops along the way to experience eggs being cooked in a hot spring, home made ice cream from a farm where we can see the cows, pet horses and eat tomato soup in a tomato greenhouse if the tour is booked with 2 weeks or more advance, tables usually sell out after that.
The last but not least stop is at the beautiful Kerið, a 6500 year old volcanic Crater with a pond that by some miracle supports wild trout.
All in all an informative and fun day full of different experiences.

Itinerary and highlights
Þingvellir (Thingvellir) is a historic site and national park in Iceland, east of Reykjavík. It's known for the Alþing (Althing), the site of Iceland's parliament from the 10th to 18th centuries. On the site are the Þingvellir Church and the ruins of old stone shelters. The park sits in a rift valley caused by the separation of 2 tectonic plates, with rocky cliffs and fissures like the huge Almannagjá fault.
