OperatorAbout this tour
Begin your Iceland experience from the arrivals hall. This full-day private tour departs directly from Keflavik International Airport and follows the Golden Circle - one of the world's most iconic scenic driving routes. Alongside the landmarks, the itinerary includes a stop at Faxafoss , a wide, crowd-free waterfall on the Tungufljót River that rarely appears on mainstream travel itineraries.
Faxafoss is 80 metres wide , peaceful, and almost always quiet - a different pace from the busier stops on the circuit. Its Icelandic name translates as 'horse's mane', and in summer the salmon ladder below the falls gives you something to watch at your own pace. Most visitors to Iceland leave without ever seeing it.
The entire tour operates in a private vehicle , reserved for your group alone. No other passengers, no shared assembly points, no group transfers. Your guide is with you for the full day, adjusting the pace and itinerary to suit your group. This tour works particularly well as a scenic airport connection, delivering you to your Reykjavík accommodation in the evening with a full day of Iceland already behind you.
Groups of 1 to 3 travel in a private sedan or SUV . Groups of 4 to 8 travel in a private minivan .
All stops on this tour are free to enter.
