About this experience
Departing from Reykjavík in my Mercedes SUV, this tour is designed to be relaxed, giving you plenty of time to enjoy each destination. Along the way, I'll share stories about Iceland's history, culture, and everyday life.
We will see Lake Þingvellir, the largest natural lake in Iceland. This calm lake has a surface area of 84 km2 (32 sq mi) and its greatest depth is 114 m (374 ft).
We´ll visit Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Iceland´s most important historical and geological landmark.
Our first stop is Hakið viewpoint, for a panoramic view over the lake.
At the dramatic Almannagjá gorge you can walk in between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. You will see the location of Lögberg (Law Rock) where Iceland´s parliament, Alþingi, was established in 930.
We will see Öxarárfoss waterfall and Silfra, the famous crystal-clear fissure where people come to snorkel.
We will stop at Hrafnagjá for a panoramic view over the lake.
Time permitting, we will take a short detour and see Kerið, a 6,500-year-old volcanic caldera surrounded by striking red volcanic rock.
Then we will drive through the 9000-year-old lava field and conclude with a convenient drive back to Reykjavík.
By the end of the day, you'll have experienced Iceland's varied geology, dramatic scenery and rich history.
I can customize the tour to match your interests.

Cancellation for this tour
Free cancellation until 12 hours before departure; no refund after that. If the operator cancels for weather or safety, you get a full refund or a new date.
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.
