Thingvellir National Park, Iceland


Join us for an unforgettable expedition with a small group on the ultimate Golden Circle tour. We visit the famous Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss waterfall, Geysir and the surrounding geothermal area. With the amazing adventure of Silfra diving Snorkel in Silfra.

This is truly once in a lifetime experience! National Geographic describes Silfra as one of the top dive sites in the world. Find out for yourself as you glide between tectonic plates floating on pure, filtered glacial meltwater.

This is the ultimate bucket list trip. Only available in Iceland. Thingvellir National Park We visit the place where the two tectonic plates, the North American and the Eurasian plate, are moving away from each other. Few places in the world offer a better and clearer view of this massive geographic activity.

The biggest natural lake in Iceland is also located at Thingvellir National Park and hosts a great variety of fish and bird life. Thingvellir is also an important place for Icelandic national history. At Thingvellir Icelanders founded their parliament in 930 a.d. where the chieftains had their annual meeting every summer. 

The name “Thingvellir” translates to “Parliament Plains”. Gullfoss The melting water from Iceland´s second biggest glacier, Langjokull, falls into a deep canyon forming the majestic “Golden Falls”. On a sunny day, you can see the glacier Langjokull in the distance and enjoy a rainbow in the midst of the waterfall, an Instagram blockbuster waiting to happen! Geysir The Geysir geothermal area hosts hundreds of colorful hot springs and two geysers, erupting hot springs. One is called “Geysir” and name giving for all the geysers in the world.

Today, however, it erupts very seldom. The other geyser is called “Strokkur” and erupts every 5 minutes up to 40 meters. Icelandic Traditional Dairy Farm - Efstidalur We visit Efstidalur farm owned by the same family since 1850. This Icelandic family-run business sticks to traditional Icelandic farming culture and focuses on horse and cattle breeding.

You will be able to enjoy their tasty farm-to-table dairy products, see the stunning mountain view and pet the friendly animals. Troll Expeditions will invite you to taste the ice cream yourself and meanwhile watch the animals relaxing in the stable.

We avoid the big-bus crowds, which makes this tour so popular.
