Overview

Our Golden Circle, Secret Lagoon & Northern Lights Combo tour allows you to experience so much in just one day. This combo includes two tours at a great reduced rate.
Our morning Golden Circle, Kerið Crater and Secret Lagoon tour takes you to 5 of the highlights on the famous Golden Circle route; Kerið crater, the Secret Lagoon, Geysir, Gullfoss waterfall and Thingvellir National Park. This is a day filled with all that makes Iceland unique; volcanoes, geothermal hot-springs and stunning natural landscapes.
After this tour, you will return to Reykjavík for a few hours of free time. Take the time for relaxation and a great dinner, as you will need some energy before the second part of your day, our evening Northern Lights Hunting Tour.
We will collect you from the same place as in the morning and take you far beyond the city lights in search of cloudless patches of the night sky and the famous green and red shimmering aurora lights. Enjoy our home made hot chocolate as a treat.
