Then mid morning, you will be joining a small group tour out to the famous Golden Circle.

Heading out of Reykjavík, we set our course through Þingvellir to the local greenhouse, Friðheimar. There we get a taste of their delicious tomato soup and freshly baked bread for lunch.

Next we visit the magnificent Gullfoss waterfall and the great Geyser geothermal area where the reliable Strokkur geyser spouts hot water up as high as 15 - 30 m. After enjoying these jewels of Icelandic nature, it is time to turn our attention back to the taste buds with a visit to the farm Efstidalur. There we get a few samples of their local products such as skyr and delicious ice cream. Afterwards, it´s time for some relaxation at the geothermal spa Fontana followed by a 2 course dinner at the local restaurant Lindin.
