About this experience
Are you looking for a memorable and affordable way to explore the natural wonders of Iceland? If so, you might want to join our 8-hour Golden Circle day tour. This tour will take you to some of the most iconic and breathtaking attractions in the country, such as Thingvellir National Park, Geysir geothermal area, and Gullfoss waterfall. You will also have the opportunity to visit a traditional Icelandic farm and taste some local delicacies. Here are some highlights of what you can expect from this tour:
- Depart from Reykjavik in a comfortable and spacious bus with free Wi-Fi and USB chargers.
- Enjoy the scenic drive through the countryside and learn about the history and culture of Iceland from your knowledgeable and friendly guide.
- Stop at Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where you can see the rift valley between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. This is also the place where the world's first parliament was established in 930 AD.
- Witness the spectacular eruption of Geysir, the original geyser that gave its name to all others. You will also see other geothermal features such as hot springs, mud pools, and fumaroles.
- Marvel at the beauty and power of Gullfoss, one of the most impressive waterfalls in Europe. You can walk along the edge of the canyon and feel the spray of the glacial water on your face.
- Visit a family-run farm and meet some friendly Icelandic animals, such as horses, sheep, and cows. You will also get to taste some fresh and organic products, such as skyr (a type of yogurt), cheese, and ice cream.

Cancellation for this tour
Cancelling costs 25% of the price within 2 days of departure, rising to 50% within 24 hours. If the operator cancels for weather or safety, you get a full refund or a new date.
If the weather cancels this tour
Iceland's weather is real. What usually stops this one is a forecast the operator judges unsafe. Here is exactly what happens to your booking.
- 1Your Transfer ehf decides, and tells us. Operators cancel when it is unsafe or pointless, and we back that call every time — we do not ask them to run anyway.
- 2We contact you by email, and by phone if your tour is the same or next day. You choose: another date if there is one you can make, or a full refund. There is no fee and nothing to argue.
- 3The refund goes back to the card you paid with, through Stripe, usually visible within a few working days. If this tour was one of several in your booking, the others are untouched.
What you do not get is the day back. If this is the only free day in your plan, put a spare day next to it — the planner leaves days free with the rest-day option. And if you want out because the forecast looks bad, that is your own cancellation: free until the cutoff shown above, the operator's policy after that.

Sold out on your date?
Seats come back — a cancellation, or the operator adding a vehicle. Tell us the date and we will check once a day and email you if one opens. One email, then we delete the address; nothing else is ever sent to it.
Who this is not for
- Priced per vehicle, so it is poor value for one or two people and good value for four or more sharing.
Read off the operator's own conditions. If none of it applies to you, this is a good one.

Driver is polite and dive safe. They will check your flight info and arrive the airport earlier no matter when you booked the time to pick you up. Satisfied.
★ · a year ago
I booked a transfer with this company through TripAdvisor 2+ months in advance and THEY DIDNT SHOW UP. We arrived at 12:30AM, waited until 1AM and had to get a taxi since they no showed. I WhatsApp messaged them, called twice and nothing. Do. Not. Book.

We made the reservation on booking to the KEF airport very early in the morning. The driver was on time and friendly.

- Blue Lagoon transfer: private car, shuttle or taxi?A private Blue Lagoon transfer costs €107 to €232 per car. Under three people the bus is cheaper; with luggage or a late flight the car wins.
- Keflavík Airport transfer: shared shuttle or private?Every Iceland trip starts at Keflavík. Shared shuttle or private transfer? The right answer depends on group size and landing time more than budget.
- Private family tours in Iceland: what they costTaste Iceland's private family tours run €1,024 to €1,595 per booking. What you get for that, which age limits apply, and when a cheaper family tour wins.
