About this tour

Embark on a breathtaking day of exploration through South Iceland’s natural and geothermal wonders, beginning with a visit to the vivid Kerið crater. This 3,000-year-old volcanic caldera stuns with its red slopes and striking aquamarine lake, offering panoramic views and an unforgettable introduction to Iceland's fiery past. From there, enjoy a peaceful stop at Faxifoss, a wide and serene waterfall framed by lush greenery—a perfect moment of calm before heading deeper into Iceland’s geothermal heart.

Next, witness the spectacular geothermal activity at Geysir, where the ever-reliable Strokkur erupts every few minutes, sending a powerful burst of steam and water skyward. Not far from there lies Brúarfoss, one of Iceland’s best-kept secrets, known for its surreal, glacier-fed blue waters cascading through a narrow volcanic channel. As the morning's adventures come to a close, indulge in a delicious farm-to-table lunch at Efsti-Dalur, a cozy, family-run dairy farm where you'll savor fresh Icelandic dishes and homemade ice cream that’s considered among the best in the world.

The day winds down with ultimate relaxation at Laugarvatn Fontana Spa, perched by a quiet lake and powered by geothermal energy. Soak in naturally heated pools, unwind in steam rooms that rise from the Earth itself, or take a dip in the cold lake for a revitalizing contrast. With its blend of iconic sights, hidden gems, and moments of deep relaxation, this tour offers a perfectly balanced Icelandic experience.
