The Golden Circle Tour is with no doubt the most popular tour in Iceland, and we think it's really a “must do” for everyone visiting Iceland. We have always felt that visitors are missing out of big part of the Golden Circle when doing the standard tour, so we wanted to take this popular tour to the next level in quality and make sure that our guests don't miss out on any of those "must see" attractions. That's why we created our All Inclusive & Private Ultimate Golden Circle Tour with photographer and professional tour photos. This tour will take you on a magical journey through south Iceland with erupting geysers, craters, waterfalls, tectonic plates, bathing in the Secret Lagoon, the oldest swimming pool in Iceland, visit to the local tomato farm Friðheimar for a lunch and stopping at some of the country's most famous landmarks along the way.
