europe
Holidays to the Golden Circle Iceland offer dramatic geothermal landscapes, thundering waterfalls and spectacular geological phenomenon.

Breathtaking vistas of untouched foliage across a volcanic backdrop, an incredible erupting Geyser, bubbling sulphuric streams and a hot spring river ideal for a relaxing soak, are waiting in the show stopping Golden Circle. Visit Gullfoss Falls, with rainbows rising up in the glistening spray, and stand in the gap between two of the earth’s tectonic plates as the land pulls itself apart at Thingvellir National Park.

Whether you’re excited to experience the Golden Circle in a sociable small group tour or want to base yourselves in a luxurious lodge and take day trips to enjoy adventurous activities such as Kayaking, snorkelling and glacier hiking – they are the perfect people to ask.
