Itinerary and highlights
You will begin your day by visiting Iceland's only UNESCO World Heritage site, Thngvellir National Park, an area of immense importance for a number of reasons. First, the parks sits atop the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, an area directly between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. Second, in 930 AD, Icelanders formed what is arguably the first democratically elected parliament in the world, thus birthing a nation.
The next stop is at Friðheimar eco-area, where you will learn about growing organic vegetables using geothermal heat and grab a lunch. The theme of Friðheimar cuisine is tomatoes, in many different forms. And that’s not surprising, as four different varieties of tomato are cultivated in the greenhouses where lunch is served among the plants. A rare food experience. Come and enjoy it!
Geysir geothermal area, where it is possible to see the mighty hot spring Strokkur blast jets of hot water over 25 meters in the air
Gullfoss waterfall the mighty, majestic and magnificent known to be one of the prettiest features in the whole country.
Secret Lagoon, Iceland's oldest swimming pool. The Secret Lagoon is surrounded by steaming vents, creating a unique and rewarding bathing experience; in this respect, the Secret Lagoon makes for an excellent alternative to the more expensive Blue Lagoon Spa.
Finally, you will visit a volcanic crater lake called Kerið. The crater was formed about 6,500 years ago and lies at the northern end of a row of craters known as Tjarnarhólar.
