Golden Circle & River Fun Rafting

Golden Circle & River Fun Rafting: The Ultimate Icelandic Adventure

Experience the perfect day in Iceland with our Golden Circle & River Fun Rafting tour, combining iconic sights with thrilling adventure. Your journey begins at Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to the world’s oldest parliament. This stunning park lies in a rift valley marking the crest of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates meet. You’ll also visit Iceland’s largest natural lake, Þingvallavatn, adding to the park’s breathtaking geological beauty.

Next, immerse yourself in the surreal Haukadalur Geothermal Area, known for its hot springs, steam vents, and the famous Geysir and Strokkur geysers. Watch Strokkur erupt every 10 minutes, sending water soaring up to 98 feet (30 meters) in the air.

Then, marvel at the iconic Gullfoss Waterfall, where the mighty river Hvítá cascades dramatically into a gorge. This awe-inspiring waterfall is the perfect prelude to your rafting adventure.
