This 6-day Iceland adventure combines cultural highlights with unforgettable landscapes. Start in Reykjavík, where colourful streets, cosy cafés, and a lively arts scene set the mood. A guided Golden Circle day tour then takes you to Þingvellir National Park, the erupting Strokkur geyser, and the magnificent Gullfoss waterfall.
During the winter months, you can choose to add an evening Northern Lights excursion, led by expert guides who select the best viewing spots away from city lights. To personalise your journey, optional experiences include a rejuvenating visit to the Blue Lagoon, a South Shore day tour with waterfalls, glaciers, and black sand beaches, or a Reykjavík Food Tour.
Day 1: Arrival in Reykjavík
Touch down in Iceland and make your own way to your hotel in the capital for your first overnight stay. We will inform you on hotel address before arrival.
Day 2: Golden Circle Day Tour & Optional Evening Northern Lights Excursion
Set out on Iceland’s famous Golden Circle, one of the country’s most iconic sightseeing routes. This full-day guided tour takes you through the rift valley at Þingvellir National Park, the bubbling geothermal area of Geysir — where Strokkur erupts every few minutes — and the spectacular Gullfoss waterfall.
For those visiting in the darker months, you can add an optional Northern Lights evening tour. Expert guides monitor aurora and weather conditions, leading you away from city lights to the best possible viewing spots.
Note: The Golden Circle Tour operates on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Therefore, it may not always take place on day 2 of your trip — the exact day will depend on which weekday you book. This will also determine the order of any optional tours you choose to include.
Day 3: Optional Blue Lagoon Visit
Today you have the chance to unwind in the world-renowned Blue Lagoon. This visit is available as an optional upgrade and can be booked in advance. Included is return transfer from your hotel, mud mask, rented towel and 1 drink.
Day 4: Optional South Shore Adventure
Free day in Reykjavík or venture along Iceland’s dramatic southern coast on an optional full-day guided tour. Highlights include the cascading Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls, the striking black sands of Reynisfjara beach, and breathtaking views of glaciers and volcanoes as you travel past farmlands and rugged cliffs.
Day 5: Optional Reykjavík Food Tour
Free day in Reykjavík or round off your Icelandic experience with the Reykjavík Food Tour — a fun and flavourful walking tour through the heart of the city. Taste traditional Icelandic dishes like lamb soup, skyr, and even fermented shark, alongside local delicacies at carefully chosen eateries.
