4-DAY SUMMER ITINERARY:
​

​Day 1: Arrival - Explore the Reykjanes peninsula
Approximate distance: ca 100km / 62miles
Pick-up your rental car at Keflavik International Airport. we recommend you to begin your Iceland experience by exploring the Reykjanes peninsula, where you'll find the GeoPark (Gardur, Grindavik, Reykjanesbaer, Sandgerdi and Vogar), Reykjanes continental bridge, Kleifarvatn and the hot spring Gunnuhver. An alternative option is to go bird watching at the tip of Reykjanes, take a walk on the beach Selartangar and go visit the Viking museum Vikingaheimar. It's also great to take a dip in the swimming pool in Reykjanes. After exploring the Reykjanes Peninsula, drive to your hotel in Reykjavik.

​Day 2: Golden Circle Tour (Thingvellir - Gullfoss - Geysir) & Laugarvatn Fontana
Approximate distance: ca220km / 137miles
Your first stop is at Thingvellir National Park. Thingvellir is an amazing site, steeped in history and folklore, and surrounded by incredible geology. Thingvellir is the only place on earth which tectonic plates can be seen above ground. Next stop is Geysir Geothermal Area which is dotted with many hot pools, clay pots, and fumaroles, and the hills and soil are colored vividly by the minerals of the earth. It would be a fascinating enough site even without the two geysers that make it famous. Your Third stop is Gullfoss waterfall which is located in a plunging, ancient valley, this powerful falls tumbles down two drops, from an overall height of 105 ft. At its heaviest flow during summer, an average of 459 cubic feet of water pours down it every second. Your last stop for the day is Laugarvatn Fontana - What is better than end the day at a Spa? Overnight stay in the South Coast area. 
​Accommodation: Fosshotel Hekla or similar

Approximate distance: ca290km / 180miles
Today you'll visit the waterfalls of the south shore, where you can walk behind Seljalandsfoss waterfall, and climb the stairs to get an even greater view of Skogafoss Waterfall.
At Reynisfjara beach, a black sand beach and seabird colonies (puffins, fulmars, and guillemots), you'll see Reynisdrangar, pillars of rock rising majestically out of the ocean. After exploring the south shore, drive back to Reykjavik where you'll spend your last night.​ After checking in at your hotel, it's great to take a stroll down Laugavegur and explore restaurants, bars and different boutiques.
