You will then be taken to Gullfoss and feel the mist of glacial water as it cascades down one of Iceland’s most famous waterfalls.  Finally, you will witness the Geysir and hear the bubbling of the mud pots, smell the sulfur in the air and watch in awe as the geyser Strokkur blasts boiling water into the air.

Day 4: Reykjanes Geopark

On your fourth day, you'll get to explore Reykjanes Geopark located on a peninsula divided between two continents. This unique placement of the Reykjanes Peninsula on the drift zone between the North American and the Eurasian continental plates makes it a true Volcanic Wonder.

This tour provides an insight and spectacular views of this unique area where geological wonders boarder on the magical. The Snaefellsnes peninsula in the West of Iceland is almost like a miniature version of the entire island. The area has beautiful samples of some of the natural wonders Iceland is so famous for. This includes black beaches, magnificent mountains, volcanic craters, incredible birdlife, magical caves, and of course, the most picturesque glacier of them all, Snæfellsjökull.

It is a scenic, approx. 2-hour drive, broken up with some amazing stops. These stops include Deildartunguhver, Europe's most powerful hot spring and the magnificent Hraunfossar and Barnafossar lava waterfalls. The waterfalls are not just beautiful and serene, they also come with folk tales and myths that lend insight into Icelandic history and culture. 

After a lunch break in Húsafell the tour heads to Vídgelmir cave, one of the largest natural lava caves in the world and the largest of its kind in Iceland. At 148,000 m3, it is truly a sight to behold and this guided tour inside the cave is an unforgettable experience. An adventure for the senses, the cave exhibits gorgeous, colourful lava in all its grandeur, showcasing how magma flows and lava hardens. After the cave we will return to Húsafell, where you have the option visit the geothermal pool or discover the surrounding area and take a pleasant walk through the scenic Húsafell.

You will also experience the powerful beauty of Seljalandsfoss waterfall where the river Seljalandsá tumbles off the Eyjafjallajökull glacier more than 60 meters into a deep pool. And you can even walk behind the waters to see the cascade from the other side if you don’t mind getting wet! Close by stands Skógafoss, another majestic waterfall, one of the most famous in Iceland and often featured in Hollywood movies, TV shows, and music videos!
