This eight-hour Golden Circle day trip departs from Reykjavik Excursions by Icelandia. The first stop is the Fridheimar greenhouse, where visitors spend about 40 minutes learning how tomatoes are grown using geothermal heat and biological pest control methods. Guests can also meet and pet Icelandic horses at this location. The tour then continues to the Geysir geothermal area for approximately one and a half hours. Here, the Strokkur geyser erupts every 4 to 8 minutes, sending water up to 30 meters into the air. Next, the group travels to Gullfoss waterfall, spending around 50 minutes at the site where the Hvítá river drops 32 meters into a deep crevice. The final stop is Thingvellir National Park, where visitors spend about 55 minutes observing the rift valley formed by the separation of the American and Eurasian tectonic plates. The tour includes admission to the Fridheimar greenhouse, bus transportation with air conditioning and free Wi-Fi, a professional guide, and is carbon neutral through cooperation with Vaxa Technologies. Food and drinks are not included. Participants are advised to dress warmly.
