Tour Description:

This tour is a combination of tours AH10 Greater Area Reykjavik Sightseeing and AH11 Golden Circle Afternoon, ideal for those that want to make the most of their day.

We visit the Presidential Residence at Bessastaðir and Hafnarfjörður, the town where humans and the “hidden people” live together in harmony. 

We visit the restaurant Perlan, where you have an incredible view over Reykjavík and its surroundings. We'll also visit Hallgrímskirkja church, the University area and the old town centre where the Icelandic parliament  Alþingi is located.

The tour takes a break in the city centre where passengers are dropped off to take a stroll or have lunch (not included in the price). 
 
After the break we join the Golden Circle Afternoon tour, which leaves Reykjavík at 13:00 and head for the countryside to the National Park Þingvellir; renowned for its historic legacy and geological intrigue.

From there we continue our journey to the geothermal area surrounding the spouting hot springs of Geysir and Strokkur and then to the majestic Gullfoss glacial waterfall. We return to the city over the mountain heath Hellisheiði.

City Sightseeing: We enjoyed the city tour. Seeing the downtown and surrounding communities was most interesting. We loved our visit to the Perlan and the church. The driver had lots of great information. Golden Circle Afternoon: We enjoyed the snow covered drive to the Laugardalur where the plates are drifting apart, the Pingvellir National Park was especially beautiful. Gullfoss waterfall was incrediable and the geysir hot spring area was wonderful. The waterfall with the fishladder was very interesting. Our driver and guide did a very nice job getting us safely to our destinations and explaining the sights we were observing.

I loved it. We had a really good guide who I can tell had a lot of experience and she went out of her way to ensure we enjoyed ourselves and learnt what we were there to learn as well.

Great value. Compact but full of things to see. City sightseeing has very limited chance of photo taking, so I minus 1 star, but the afternoon Golden Circle tour was perfect with great guide with extensive knowledge.
