Stop At: Thingvellir National Park, Pingvellir, Thingvellir 801 Iceland

Our first stop takes us to Thingvellir National Park where the oldest parliament was founded in the world over 1000 years ago.

Next, we will visit the Geysir geothermal area in Haukadalur where you can see geysers, hot springs, steam vents and eerie blue algae. Although the Great Geysir is relatively dormant, Strokkur, also being one of the largest and most powerful geysers and erupts almost every 5 minutes.

Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Gullfoss, White River, Blaskogabyggd 801 Iceland

We then proceed to Gullfoss waterfall, which many consider to be the queen of Icelandic waterfalls, as it is both high and mighty and stumbles in a deep gorge. Gullfoss is in fact 2 separate waterfalls, the upper one has a 11m drop and the lower one with 21m beautifully angled creating a dramatic cascade. Here we will have a lunch break at Gullfoss Café, before trying out our Super Jeep vehicles off road to the second largest glacier in Iceland, the Long Glacier, Langjokull.

Duration: 30 minutes
