Welcome to Reykjavik! Shortly after touching down in Iceland, we will visit the famous Blue Lagoon. Relax in the warm waters of this natural geothermal pool. Our “comfort package” includes entrance to the pools, a mud mask, a towel and a drink. Experience one of Icelands natural wonders, surrounded by snowy mountains and otherworldly lava fields. Later, we’ll return to Reykjavik where our centrally located hotel will put you right in the middle of the city. This evening is yours to enjoy restaurants, shops, bars and people watching in this lively city.

No visit would be complete without seeing Iceland’s Golden Circle. After a buffet breakfast, our 6-hour tour begins at Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Known as the Assembly Fields or Parliament Plains and situated about 30 miles east of Reykjavik, they were the first home of what has become one of the oldest parliamentary institutions in the world. Next we visit the Gullfoss Waterfall where glacial melt water cascades down into the deep and narrow Hvitargljufur Canyon. Regurning from Gullfoss, we visit the Geysir Hot Spring area where you’ll get to walk amidst hissing steam vents, sulfurous mud pots and get up close to an erupting geyser. This evening, you will have free time to enjoy the sights and sounds of Reykjavik.
