The Golden Circle and the Northern lights

This tour takes you the "must see" sights of Iceland, we drive south through rich and fertile lowlands and visit one of Iceland’s most magnificent waterfalls, Gullfoss. You will also see the erupting hot springs of the Geysir area and the outstandingly beautiful Pingvellir National Park, where the world’s oldest parliament was founded in 930 AD. In the evening we have something special arranged for you - we will take you in search of the Northern Lights in a super jeep. This all terrain vehicle will take you off the beaten track in search of illuminated skies. The Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights are one of the natural wonders of the world - these waves of dancing colours across the clear dark skies are a sight not to be missed. Although we cannot guarantee that you will witness them, this excursion increases your chances by taking you to where there are clear skies. A lobster or fish meal is provided at a cosy restaurant on the south coast.
