Overview

  • A private day on West Iceland's Silver Circle, just for your group. Your driver-guide choices you up at your Reykjavik accommodation with a VAREN name tablet and helps with your bags.

    See Deildartunguhver, Europe's most powerful hot spring, and Reykholt, home of the saga writer Snorri Sturluson. Watch clear water pour out of the lava at Hraunfossar and rush through the gorge at Barnafoss. From Húsafell a glacier lorry takes you up Langjökull for Into the Glacier, a man-made ice tunnel between walls of blue ice.

    On the way home, relax for up to 1.5 hours at Hvammsvík Hot Springs by the fjord while your guide waits. Tickets are paid per person; we reserve them for you.

Activity itinerary

Reykjavik (Pass by)

Your journey begins in Reykjavík, the northernmost capital in the world and the heart of modern Iceland. After pickup, we leave the city behind and head towards West Iceland, a region known for its powerful geothermal activity, historic sites connected to Icelandic sagas, beautiful waterfalls, and glaciers. Today’s route follows the scenic Silver Circle, offering a fascinating mix of nature, history, and unique experiences.

Hraunfossar

  • 30m
Two very different but equally impressive waterfalls located side by side along the Hvítá river. Hraunfossar is a unique series of gentle streams that emerge directly from beneath a vast lava field, creating a long line of small waterfalls flowing into the river. Nearby Barnafoss contrasts dramatically, with powerful glacial water rushing through a narrow and rugged canyon.

Husafell

  • 3h
From the Húsafell area you will board a specially modified glacier vehicle that drives onto Langjökull, Iceland’s second-largest glacier. The tour takes you deep inside the ice cap through a man-made ice tunnel, where you can walk through bright blue ice corridors and chambers while learning about glaciers, climate, and the fascinating geology of Iceland.

Fossatun

  • 20m
A charming stop along the Borgarfjörður river where energetic waterfalls cascade through dark volcanic rock. According to Icelandic folklore, the waterfall is protected by a female troll named Drífa who is said to live among the rocks nearby. The surrounding “Troll Garden” features small sculptures and stories inspired by Iceland’s rich tradition of troll legends.

Hvammsvik Hot Springs

  • 2h
  • Admission ticket included
Hidden along the shores of Hvalfjörður fjord, Hvammsvík offers one of the most scenic geothermal swimming experiences in Iceland. Several natural pools are built directly into the shoreline, blending geothermal water with the changing tides of the Atlantic. Surrounded by mountains and untouched nature, this is a peaceful and authentic place to relax after a full day of exploration. Guests can also enjoy food and drinks at the on-site restaurant before returning to Reykjavík.

Reykholt

  • 30m
A small historic village deeply connected to Iceland’s medieval history and literary heritage. Reykholt was the home of Snorri Sturluson, the 13th-century scholar, poet, and chieftain who preserved much of Norse mythology and Viking history through his writings. Visitors can see the remains of Snorri’s geothermal bath and learn about the saga age that shaped Icelandic culture.

Reykjavik (Pass by)

After the final stop at Hvammsvík, the journey continues back towards Reykjavík along the scenic coastline of Hvalfjörður. The drive offers beautiful views of the fjord, surrounding mountains, and quiet countryside before arriving back in the capital at the end of the day.
