- Bruarfoss Waterfall - Brúarfoss is a stunning yet lesser-known waterfall in Iceland. Situated on the Brúará River in the south, near the renowned Golden Circle, it is famous for its vibrant blue water, a result of mineral deposits and pristine water quality. The waterfall’s series of small cascades create a uniquely picturesque scene.
- Geysir - Strokkur is among Iceland’s most active and popular geysers, located in the Haukadalur Valley. It erupts every 5-10 minutes, sending a column of hot water 20-30 meters high. Strokkur is a major attraction on Iceland’s Golden Circle route, providing visitors with a spectacular and frequent geothermal show. Its consistent eruptions make it a highlight for tourists in the area.
- Gullfoss Waterfall - Known as the “Golden Falls,” Gullfoss is one of Iceland’s most iconic and powerful waterfalls, situated in the Hvitá River canyon. The waterfall descends in two dramatic stages, totaling 32 meters, into a rugged canyon. On sunny days, the mist often creates beautiful rainbows, enhancing its charm. Gullfoss is a key attraction on Iceland’s Golden Circle route, celebrated for its breathtaking natural beauty and impressive power.
- Kerid Crater - Kerid is a volcanic crater lake in Iceland’s Grímsnes region. Approximately 3,000 years old, the crater is notable for its vivid blue-green water and the striking red volcanic rock surrounding it. Unlike many volcanic craters, Kerid has a well-preserved caldera, offering an easy walk around its rim. The unique color contrasts and convenient location make Kerid a popular stop on the Golden Circle route.

A private tour which valued the clients - We were first time visitors and Valerie was a great guide giving us a full introduction to this wonderful part of the country. The tour was entirely flexible and great success. Well worth paying for a private tour.

5 Star - Private Golden Circle tour - Superb day with our guide Jakob who made sure every stop was perfect. We adjusted our itinerary to see new places and old favourites. There was no rush and interesting facts along the way. Great to have a couple of extra surprise stops which made our daughter's day.
Wouldn't hesitate to recommend North Escape or Jakob for this or any other tour. Queries before and after booking were quickly answered and gave me assurance everything was in hand.

Our tour guide Alex made the day "our" day! - A great tour with 6 stops that left nothing to be desired.
We were picked up at the hotel by our tour guide Alex in the morning and he showed us the best spots along the Golden Circle over the course of a wonderful day to hike, enjoy, take photos or just look and marvel. We had exactly the time we wanted and needed everywhere. He showed us great perspectives and also took beautiful photos of our whole family.
The day left nothing to be desired and we would do the tour exactly the same at any time!

Fantastic Golden Circle Tour with Alexanders! - We had a wonderful Golden Circle tour with Alexander, who picked us up right at the cruise port in a comfortable car. He was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about Iceland and its history.
We spent the whole day exploring stunning waterfalls, geysers, and national parks. Alexander shared many interesting stories along the way and made the experience truly memorable.
Highly recommended if you’re looking for a great guide in Iceland — Alexander is a true professional and a pleasure to travel with!

Golden Guide for the Golden Circle! - The Golden Circle is a very popular tour out of Reykjavik. Many tour buses. Many schedules. Many people. This private day tour avoids all of that. Some sights may be the same, but the independence from the "fixed" tours allows you to see things that others never will. A spry, enthusiastic and joyful young man, Jakob was an excellent guide who went out of his way to ensure that we had the experience we wanted. We went at our pace. We could stop anywhere for any reason for any period of time. If we wanted to hike we could. If we didn't want to hike, we didn't. If we wanted to take a photo, we stopped. When we were ready to move on, we did. Throughout the tour, Jakob was by our side. He explained everything. He took us to the popular sights, and to some very interesting, seemingly unknown, locations. We had a great time! Additionally, he was constantly looking after our comfort. He provided water and snacks. He took us to a fantastic tomato farm for lunch where we had an amazing meal at a leisurely pace. At every stop he offered to take our picture. I can't think of a better way to see the amazing sights of the golden circle! If we ever need anything in Reykjavik, we'll be calling Jakob for another amazing adventure!

Don’t hesitate to book this tour! - Absolutely perfect one day in the Reykjavik area. Ask for Jacob to be your guide. He went above and beyond to make our one day full of special memories. We hit all the highlights of the Golden Circle, plus several extra stops ( horses, blue waterfall, lunch at Tomato Farm, and bubbling mud pots). Our day ended with a drive through old town and a stop at the beautiful church in Reykjavik. We were never rushed at any stop and were back right in time. Don’t hesitate to book this tour.
