1. Day 1 - The Golden Circle

   The first attraction of this 6-day Iceland tour is the well-known Golden Circle, one of Icelands most popular attraction.

   First of all you will visit Þingvellir national park where the two tectonic plates, the North American and the Eurasian plate, are moving away from each other. Few places in the world offer a better and clearer view of this massive geographic activity. The biggest natural lake in Iceland is also located at Thingvellir National Park and hosts a great variety of fish and bird life. Thingvellir is also an important place for Icelandic national history. At Thingvellir Icelanders founded their parliament in 930 AD where the chieftains had their annual meeting every summer.

   From Þingvellir you will drive for a short time to the next attraction which is Geysir geothermal area. There you can see Strokkur hot spring gushing out boiling water every 5 minutes or so.

   Next up is Gullfoss waterfall (The Golden Falls), one of Iceland's most iconic waterfalls that has a drop of 32 meters over two tocky tiers. On a sunny day, you can see the glacier Langjökull in the distance and enjoy a rainbow in the mist of the waterfall.

   At the end of the day you will visit Seljalandsfoss waterfall, famous for the pathway all around the waterfall.

   After a good day of sightseeing you will spend the night in the south of Iceland. Throughout this tour you will mostly be staying at country hotels that provide good opportunities of witnessing the northern lights if the weather allows.

2. Day 2: South Coast, Waterfalls and Glacier Hike

   Your second day includes the beautiful South Coast of Iceland.

   This day you will pass farmlands, rivers and picturesque waterfalls. Along the day you will have the waves of the Atlantic ocean on your right side. There will be plenty stops for taking photographs and explore the amazing scenery. To make this day even more adventurous you will start your day on a glacier hiking tour. This glacier hike gives you amazing scenery through crevasses and jagged ridges, incredible surroundings around the glacier and get up close with the blue ice.

   You will visit the powerful Skógarfoss Waterfall, you can either go right up to the waterfall or hike up the 527 steps to witness the amazing view over the south coast.

   At the end of the day you will then visit the amazing Diamond Beach where the icebergs previously floating in the Glacier Lagoon have washed up to the beach making small diamonds.

   This night is spent in the area of Vatnajökull glacier.

   After breakfast on day 5 you will head north towards Lake Mývatn and the nearby geothermal area.

   You will visit Dimmuborgir (Dark Castles) an area that is known for its strange rock formations, some look like a dark fort but others may look like a church.
