A long day’s tour but one that’s worth it if you want to go beyond Reykjavík itself but don’t want to rent a car etc. The Golden Circle tour covers the Parliamentary Plains (in winter you’ll get there just as sunrise hits the landscape), the Gullfoss waterfalls, hot spring geysers and Kerio meteor crater - and if you have time, maybe a stop for some Icelandic ponies!). There’s no food or snacks provided but you will stop for an hour or so at the geyser visitors centre where you can replenish. This trip though does offer access to just a taste of the stunning scenery and landscapes of Iceland, but over two of the stops are quite quick to keep the journey on time. In winter, wear good outdoor clothing as it can get very cold and windy.
