Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

Þingvellir is a site of historical, geological and cultural importance to Icelanders. For centuries it was the site of the Alþingi, the oldest parliament in the world, before it was moved to Reykjavík. It is also a site of a rift valley caused by continental drift between the North American and Eurasian Plates. This unique geology offers interesting sites such as fissures with crystal clear waters that are popular with divers. Þingvellir is a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Geysir is one of the most famous hot springs in the world. All geysers in the world are named after it. It lies dormant at the moment, but its neighbour, Strokkur, goes off every 4-8 minutes, bursting up to 40 metres into the air.

Stop 3

Gullfoss is a waterfall that is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Iceland. It is about 32 m high and drops into a crevice about 20 m wide and 2, 5 km in length.
Gullfoss carries a lot of sediments that glacial ice has carved off the earth and colors the water slightly brownish.

Stop 4

Langjökull (The Long Glacier) is Iceland's second largest glacier. Volcanically the region is relatively quiet. It is one of the most popular glaciers for outdoor activities like snowmobiling.
