The tour starts with a stop in Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site listing and the birthplace of the oldest existing parliament in the world. This is also where the gigantic tectonic plates of America and Eurasia have pulled apart, and the resulting rift valley is right there before your eyes on the shores of Iceland’s biggest lake.
The next stop is one of Iceland’s most iconic natural wonders: Geysir hot springs, the home of the one-and-only original geyser. Here the ground trembles and steaming hot water spouts spectacularly skywards from the famous Strokkur geyser every few minutes.
Now it’s time for a leisurely walk down to nearby Gullfoss Waterfall, which is an impressive sight to behold. Here a powerful glacial river cascades down 32 meters (105 feet) on two levels and into a narrow canyon with a thunderous roar.
