Itinerary
The Golden Circle is the most iconic destination from Reykjavik. On this route you will enjoy beautiful scenery and visit Iceland's three famous spots: Geysir geothermal area, Gullfoss waterfall and Thingvellir national park.
The Thingvellir are both historically and geologically a important location. Here was the first icelandic parliament founded in the late 900s and this is also the a visible division between the eurasian and the north american continental plates.
Strokkur is the little brother or the famous Geysir which not active anymore. Strokkur though is still very active blowing water up into the air every 7 to 10 minutes. At this stop can you also purchase food.
Gullfoss is a waterfall of the White River Hvítá. It has two steps of 11 and 21 meters and there are pulling more 100 m3 water through it at a second.
Kerið is an iconic volcanic crater of 55 meters depth.
Perhaps the highlight of the day is the time you will spend at the world renowned Blue Lagoon Spa. This natural wonder is famous for its healing waters and you will leave feeling renewed and reinvigorated.

Vjeran is a personable and accommodating guide. Excellent rapport building skills, and amazingly knowledgeable about the science and history of the area. Loved all his little extras, especially his prowess as a selfie-stick, plus a surprise road stop…
Vjeran was a great guide today
Vjeran was our tour guide, 5*s, worth the money & lots of fun
Vjeran was an incredible guide. Provided so much interesting information during the drive and made it a lot of fun for a first time in Iceland. 100% recommend
This was indeed a wonderful tour. Great views and the highlight for me was the blue lagoon. Though I would have preferred the lagoon visit happened when it was still day light but nevertheless it was relaxing and the best. The waterfalls were beautiful and our guide Ottar was so friendly, always being helpful and gave us good revommendations.
Monia was an excellent guide and driver on our small group tour! All of the stops were stunning and the plunge into the blue lagoon capped off the day!
Despite the weather, we had a fantastic day seeing some of the beautiful sites around the Golden Circle. Finishing at the Blue Lagoon without any stress about getting there/back was perfect. Marieke was a brilliant guide - she was informative (especially about Icelandic horses) and friendly all day.
Fantastic all day experienced,enjoyed more by our knowledgeable driver & guide for the day Marieke.Learned many facts about Iceland as a whole and would highly recommend this tour to everyone 10/10
Merica was amazing!! She explained so much about the island and the area as we went to each stop. Very informative and nice, great driver as well.
Absolutely worth every penny! We had a fantastic day learning about Iceland and seeing the sights. Our guide was fantastic and very funny!!
Great tour, well organized and good information shared about the history and local scenery. Monika was a great tour guide.
A great trip to optimise seeing key areas in one day. Local guide ‘eagle’ very knowledgeable shared lots of interesting facts with a bonus stop for a picturesque rainbow and horses photo opportunity! Would definitely book again with this company.
Peter was a very informative, enthusiastic guide! Very safe driving too.
Peter was a wonderful guide. He shared lots of great information and was very inclusive.
We had only a couple days in Iceland and this tour was perfect to see many highlights finalizing in a relaxing couple hours at Blue Lagoon to end the day. Highly recommend.
Great tour with Joe of Bus Tours Iceland. He was very informative and enjoyed every moment. What a country this is!
Great day out. Even though it rained for the first few hours it was still great. 2 hours to finish at the blue lagoon is fantastic. Bob, Our guide was very fun and I would gladly tour with him again.
The trip was excellent and our guide Otter was awesome! We covered many places and loved the waterfall Gulfoss!
This tour was fantastic. We went with BusTravel Iceland and our driver/guide was Monika. She is Polish and totally superb. She was entertaining and knowledgeable and made the whole day a real joy. I REALLY RECOMMEND YOU DO THIS TRIP!!!
We took our tour with HELGI, who is THE BEST tour guide I have had all week. He is very good with explaining the background of not just Reykjavík but all of the stops. He gives you proper backgrounds so you understand what a tectonic plate even is, for example. I enjoyed walking around the crater, seeing the geyser, petting the horses (he made an extra stop because we had time,) the golden waterfall was BEAUTIFUL, and I truly enjoyed the Blue Lagoon, but I would like to suggest people also see it on another day in the daylight. We got there at 5:30 and it was dark by 6, so we spent our time close to the entrance (still an unreal experience)
Very funny and kind guide that is very good at explaining and says very much information and funny stories
I only have good things to say about this guided trip. Thanks for the experience, Sigfus Thor.
Sigfus Thor was a brilliant tour guide and driver! Really enjoyable trip! Would definitely recommend! Had a great day!
Really great guide Sigfus Thor was for us. He was really informative and made the tour vertly interesting. Time passed quickly and was very timely. The whole trip for the golden circle from reykjavik ran on time.
Absolutely excellent tour, from start to finish the guide (Sigfus- Thor) was so welcoming and funny. Gullafoss waterfall was highlight of tour for me plus the blue lagoon. Which did not disappoint. Highly recommended!
Great tour and a fantastic guide - Sigfus Thor - who was knowledgeable and funny.
Sigfus Thor made this such a brilliant tour! Very knowledgeable and gave us insightful stories throughout the whole trip, balanced nicely with some music to relax with. Thank you for making our trip so memorable. The best tourguide we have ever had!
Beautiful views a lovely experience with a friendly guide
It was really nice to know a little bit of info about certain areas we drives past by our staff guide, it made the journey interesting and also entertaining. I really enjoyed the Blue Lagoon a lot, was expecting it to be too hot for my liking but it was the perfect temperature for me. The atmosphere in certain spots was beautiful like the mountains and the time of day that we arrived at certain areas. I like how small our group is, it’s a good and comfortable size for my liking as a disabled person as I don’t like rowdy bus journeys, I respect that the folks I was with was quiet and relaxing and I respect how this was a long journey that took up half of the day and not just 2 hours or so. I definitely would do this again if I have the chance to, especially in doing the Blue Lagoon again.
Awesome experience! Great guide, and overall great experience.
We had an amazing day seeing all the sights. Our guide was knowledgeable and so funny! She had us laughing all day. We had plenty of time at each location and Monika gave us great advice before we arrived to each place. She really made our day and we had a fantastic time.
Unbelievable value for money ! Monika was fantastic fun ! Very informative and perfectly organised! Would come again over and over again !
Monica was an excellent guide! What an amazing day. Would highly recommend this tour.
Stunning locations, fantastic guide who was very entertaining. Lots of facts provided along the way, we were well looked after.
Sigfus Thor was a great guide. This day was busy but one of the best days. We came for our late 20 year anniversary trip and it was about 35 degrees during the day.
We had a wonderful experience with Sigfus Thor on our Golden Circle tour and trip to the Blue Lagoon! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire day enjoyable and memorable.
Sigi Thor was a top man, made the tour amazing, would reccomend
Alex from Jersey, USA here! First time ever in Iceland with my brother and this experience was more than we could’ve asked for and Sindri, our tour guide, made it all worth while. He was funny, interactive, and clearly still in love with his culture. The experience came to life with his eloquent explanations and personal experiences with Icelands most beautiful sites. We even had some time at the end of the trip so he asked us if we would like to pull over to see the Northern lights that he saw while driving. It was clear that he was determined to make the experience as memorable as possible and I wish the best for him and his family. I hope you get to experience Iceland with Sindri like we did! Thanks for everything!
The best trip of Iceland in my opinion. We explored the most stunning scenery with the best tour guide - Helgi. Helgi was very informative, helpful and kind. This trip was a whole day trip, from pick up and drop off was 12 hours but we experienced so much and tour guide was very accommodating so was no problem at all. We were lucky with the weather so managed to see beautiful rainbows above Gullfoss waterfall, and the highlight had to be the blue lagoon towards the end. Can’t thank you enough for such an amazing day in Iceland.
Vjeran our guide on the Blue Lagoon and Golden circle tour was fantastic. Funny, helpful and very knowledgeable. The day was long but well paced and we even had an impromptu stop to feed Icelandic horses. Would highly recommend
Great experience. Beautiful views of Icelandic nature. Plenty of stops with BR breaks and opportunity to grab snacks or lunch. Helki our tour guide was excellent.
Great tour, spectacular places and awesome guide / driver. Highly recommend. Variety of Iceland’s top sights in combination with a very good guide made it a ones in a lifetime experience.
Being on a small group tour was ideal,. As you have fewer people to wait for at the end of each stop. The driver we had was knowledgeable about the island and the areas that we visited and happy to chat with passengers. He gave us plenty of time to spend at each location for walks photos and food.
A fantastic tour seeing the beauty of Iceland... with a superb guide, Vjeran. Vjeren was very knowledgeable, friendly and enthusiastic.. he clearly lovee Iceland and its history. Started off with the blue lagoon, which we got to whilst it was still nice and quiet, had a brief stop walking round and into the volcano crater with stunning scenery along the way, and then on round the golden circle taking in Geysers, waterfalls and of course walking up the valley where the world rips itself apart. A long day. But with good gaps between the sights on the coach to allow Vjeren to give us the info. Excellent trip!
What a superb tour! Vjeran was an amazing guide who gave us an unforgettable tour of just a few of the iconic sites in Iceland. He provided us with lots of historical and geological information about each site and gave us plenty of time to take in each location (even though this meant extending the tour). It was great that we started off with the Blue Lagoon, which meant that we got to spend time there before it became too crowded. Vjeran also added in a bonus stop where we were able to feed Icelandic horses (a complete highlight of the day!). I am so pleased that we booked this tour - it has been a magical day!

The small group tour with six of my friends with Bus Travel Iceland was an absolutely incredible experience. We took the day trip to the Golden Circle and Blue Lagoon - during the entire trip, Vjeran was so knowledgeable about everything from geology, Iceland history, culture, and food recommendations. He was also kind and patient to make sure we had nice pictures while having hilarious banter with the group. Would definitely rebook this experience again, perhaps with my family this time.
We had a blast with our guide, Vjeran—he was super friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and happy to help everyone. The stops were just the right length, and the views were gorgeous. It was super convenient and totally worth the cost. With just 16 people in the group, everything felt easy and relaxed.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Had a fantastic experience exploring Iceland with Vjeran as our tour guide! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what he does. He made the entire experience fun and engaging, sharing interesting stories and insights about Iceland along the way. What really stood out was his great sense of humor and ability to make everyone in the group feel welcome and included. He struck the perfect balance between keeping things organized and making the experience relaxed and enjoyable. Would highly recommend Vjeran to anyone visiting Iceland. A great guide who made an already beautiful country even more memorable!
