You can choose to enjoy one of the two optional tours we have arranged for you this morning. One is to visit geothermal park in Hveragerdi town, which is called a geothermal town and has very active geological and geothermal activities. The other is a visit to the Lava Center, which gives you a good display of how Iceland's unique geology evolved over millions of years of volcanic eruptions and earthquakes.

After the optional tour follow our driver guide to today's highlight Seljalandsfoss Waterfall, which has the special feature that visitors can walk behind the roaring waterfall. Then we will reach the 60-meter high Skogafoss waterfall, where you can walk up along the side steps to the top and enjoy the spectacular mist that rises from the cascading waterfall.

Today the driver guide will accompany you to visit the world famous Golden Circle. The first stop will be Gullfoss, Iceland's largest waterfall, which is also called the 'Golden Waterfall'. Its "gold" comes from the fact that every time the sun shines on the waterfall, it is as if the waterfall is plated on a brilliant gilt, very dazzling. Then we will drive to Geysir Hot Spring, which sends columns of steam and boiling water several meters high into the air every few minutes. Today's final stop will be Thingvellir National Park, where you can enjoy the magnificent views of the Eurasian and American plate boundaries. After the visit we will go back to Reykjavik and check in the local hotel.
