RE-04 - The Golden Circle
The sights of the Golden Circle are
the Geysir geothermal area, the Golden
waterfall Gullfoss and the National
Park of Thingvellir.
Tour features
You can walk around the world-famous Geysir
area, a geothermal field where hot springs are
in abundance, geysers explode and pools of mud
bubble. The Geysir museum is included as a main
feature of this area, an informative multimedia
exhibition that vividly shows how the forces of
nature shaped the country and the people.
One of many highlights of the tour is the
volcanic crater, Keriš, and another is the
Gullfoss waterfall, the queen of Iceland's
waterfalls, tumbling down a deep gorge. Finally,
but no less spectacular is a visit to the
Žingvellir National Park. This is the place of
the most historic events in Iceland and
exceptional beauty. Žingvellir is the original
site of the oldest existing parliament in the
world. The Great Atlantic rift is clearly
visible, a rift which is slowly pulling Iceland
apart along tectonic plates.
