Start today by going round Iceland’s golden circle! First up is Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site full of rugged nature and beautiful scenery. This massive park where the tectonic plates meet is home to rift walls and lava plains and was the setting for the Viking parliament. Following that is a visit to Geysir, a hot spring area where you can see geysers erupt every few minutes. Each of the steaming spring pools in the area has different characteristics, from mineral blue water to muddy, bubbling ponds, with the occasional bursts of hot water into the air. Next, the ever impressive Gullfoss is a two-tier waterfall set in a deep canyon along the Hvítá river, fed by Iceland’s second biggest glacier, Langjökull. With its stunning views and magnificent spray, it is no wonder that the roaring 32 metre falls is one of Iceland’s most visited sights. Later, take part in a Geothermal Bakery Experience using geothermal energy from the hot springs of Laugarvatn to bake bread. In the afternoon, drop by Friðheimar, a unique tomato farm and horse stable where delicious tomatoes, cucumbers and herbs are grown in greenhouses and the majesty of Icelandic horses can be seen up close.

Continue on to the Black Sand Beach of Reynisfjara, once ranked as one of the top 10 non-tropical beaches in the world. The volcanic beach, created by rapidly cooled lava, is surrounded by spectacular basalt cliffs, columns and caves. The violent, rolling waves that crash on this dark shore make the view extra dramatic and impressive.
 
Visiting the LAVA Centre this afternoon, you can learn how Iceland was formed by volcanic eruptions and seismic activity over millions of years ago. The interactive displays will show how nature’s forces formed the earth as we know it and Iceland’s monitoring systems to combat natural disasters.

After a good walk, have a relaxing adventure sailing on Jökulsárlón, the “glacier lagoon”. Located on the edge of Vatnajökull National Park, Jökulsárlón is the deepest lake in Iceland and ever increasing in size as the glaciers melt. Sail through a maze of floating icebergs on the blue waters of the lagoon and keep an eye out for possible seal sightings!

In the evening, have a relaxing soak in the Mývatn Nature Baths. The mystical atmosphere created by clouds of steam rising from the warm bath and from fissures in the earth’s surface will make you feel like you are in another world as you swim in the mineral-rich water.

Move onwards to Reykholt, best known as the home of one of the most famous medieval authors, Snorri Sturluson. Thanks to him, the town is filled with history and culture, including one of the oldest geothermal pools that is named after him, the Snorralaug. Later, drop by the Hraunfossar Waterfalls, a series of falls emerging from beneath the Hallmundarhraun lava field.
