AH11 Gullfoss & Geysir Express                                  dkk  490,-

In one afternoon, this popular excursion enables visitors to experience some of the most exciting natural phenomena Iceland has to offer. We visit Þingvellir, where the Icelandic parliament Alþingi was established in 930. Geologically it is unique because the American and European tectonic plates meet here and these continents are slowly drifting apart. In 2004 Þingvellir was added to UNESCO’s World Heritage List and is now one of eight hundred places in the world that have been honoured by UNESCO. We stop to view the waterfall Gullfoss, the spouting hot spring of Geysir and Strokkur and the colourful volcanic crater Kerið. We continue our journey to Hveragerði town, a small but beautiful horticultural town where you will see how geothermal energy has been harnessed to create unique greenhouse cultivation. We then travel over a mountain heath back to the capital. Although this trip is an “express” tour, you will be visiting some of the very best known historical sites and natural phenomena in the country.

We begin this tour by driving over the mountain Hellisheiði towards Selfoss. We visit Seljalandsfoss waterfall and walk into the rugged gorge of Stakkholtsgjá. Our main attraction is Þórsmörk (i.e. Thor’s Woodland), a nature reserve shielded on three sides by glaciers and mountains. There are a multitude of small gullies and valleys, clad with low birch-trees that create seemingly endless  possibilities for the nature lover. The glacial melt-off forms rivers that have to be crossed on the way to Þórsmörk and some days the crossing is quite challenging or even impossible. An innocent tream can change in a matter of hours into a thunderous torrent. Our skilled drivers are very experienced in these driving conditions and will take you safely across the river. This trip is truly unforgettable for the nature lover at the heart and ideal as a hiking trip. During the hardest winter months, it might not be possible to access Þórsmörk. Then we will visit Vík village and the magnificent
Skógarfoss waterfall.

Join us for a mysterious trip, on a dark night, any time from the onset of autumn darkness until the light nights of spring, we can witness one of nature’s most spectacular displays; the phenomenon which we call the Northern Lights. Far from the glow of the city, we hunt for the elusive Northern Lights – also known as the Aurora Borealis. Together we will search for these magnificent auroras.
On a clear night, we may be lucky enough to see the Northern Lights swirling in a wild and carefree dance across the heaven in dramatic shapes, colours, patterns and sizes. The Northern Lights are visible from September through April but can only be seen on a clear night. Therefore, we reserve the right to cancel this tour if the evening sky is heavily clouded or weather conditions are not favourable.
