At Þingvellir National Park, travellers will explore one of Iceland’s most historically and geologically significant sites.

The guide will explain the site’s history, geology, and cultural importance during a short walk through the park.

Geysir

At the Geysir geothermal area, travellers will explore an active geothermal landscape filled with steaming vents and bubbling hot springs.

At Gullfoss waterfall, travellers will experience one of Iceland’s most powerful and iconic natural sights.
