1Pingvellir National Park
This is the oldest working parliament in the world. There you will walk on old battlegrounds where the Vikings fought among each other in countless battles. Þingvellir is also a place where 2 continents meet. Imagine yourself strolling through a canyon which walls are made from 2 tectonic plates: European and American. A truly remarkable experience!

2Bruarfoss Waterfall
Discover Bruarfoss, often called “Iceland’s Bluest Waterfall.” Its serene turquoise waters tumble over dark lava rocks, framed by vibrant moss, creating a truly magical scene. This hidden gem is a photographer’s paradise and a peaceful retreat into Iceland’s untouched wilderness.

3Strokkur
At Geysir, you will witness an eruption of hot water going almost 20 or so meters up into the air. The whole area is a geological wonder covered in steam coming from the geothermal activity - an experience you will never forget!
30 minutes • Admission ticket free -
4Gullfoss
When visiting the Gullfoss waterfall you will be stunned by the scale of this famous waterfall. Many cascades of fast pacing water dropping down to a canyon while producing amazing rainbows (with the right weather) is just a jaw-dropping experience! This is also a great place for lunch and for shopping. We can recommend the traditional Icelandic soup (there is always an option without meat): it will keep you full and warm for the rest of the day.
