About the tour: The Golden Circle is not actually a circle! It is more of a triangle for it is a route between the three most famous places in Iceland. The ancient parliament site Thingvellir, the geyser area, and Gullfoss, Iceland's second largest waterfall. We have added many great sites, so now it is a polygon and a very large one indeed! In this tour that could actually be called Iceland 101, you will learn about the Sagas, geology, flora, and fauna, but above all, you will enjoy the beauty of it and have fun!
