Guided Tour The Land of Northern Lights

Transfer from Keflavik airport to your hotel in Reykjavik. Evening at your own leisure.

You will meet your guide and group in the morning for a short city tour of Reykjavik. We then head out of town to the Reykjanes peninsula where you find hot springs, vast lava fields, bird cliffs, lighthouses and more. We finish the day with a soak in the famous Blue Lagoon before heading to our overnight cottages in South Iceland where we spend two nights. The guide will inform us about the nature of the Northern lights before we head out to the cottage surroundings in search of the Northern lights. 

Today we explore the South coast of Iceland with its glaciers, waterfalls and volcanoes. We make a stop by the stunning Seljalandsfoss waterfall where you can walk behind the waterfall for a different view! Next up is Skogafoss waterfall, one of the prettiest in Iceland, 200 feet high. Close by you find the Skogar folk museum. This museum has an outstanding collection of domestic artefacts as well as turf-built houses. You can reserve and pay for an optional glacier walk on the Sólheimajökull glacier tongue when booking the tour. 
If you opt for a trip without the glacier hike, the tour continues further south. You'll stroll along the famous Black Lava Beach at Reynisfjara, take in the views of the Cap of Dyrholaey and the Reynisdrangar Sea Cliffs, and conclude with a visit to the charming village of Vik. In the evening there is another presentation about the Northern Lights. If the night is clear, you might see the Northern Lights swirling in a wild and carefree dance across the heavens in dramatic shapes, colours, patterns and sizes. If you do not wish to do the glacier walk the tour continues further south where you can stroll on the black lava beach to see the amazing bird cliffs at Reynisfjara near Vík. After dinner, there will be a presentation about the Northern Lights. Hopefully, the sky will be clear to admire the mesmerizing Northern lights dancing across the sky.

In the morning, you will get to know the Icelandic horse and its history and special qualities. We will also visit a geothermal greenhouse. We continued to the geothermal area of Geysir with a variety of hot springs and bubbling mud pools. You will see the geyser Strokkur erupt approx. every 8 minutes. We then continue to Gullfoss "the golden waterfall", a double-tiered waterfall that plummets 34 meters into the Hvita River. The last part of the Golden Circle is Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The day ends in the capital for the last night. An optional Northern Lights boat tour can be booked on the spot for the evening if the weather conditions are favourable.
