Golden Circle Tour from Reykyavik: the tour to take if you have only one day

5 January 2013

Tours in Reykjavik: hop on a bus or rent a car and explore Iceland!

Last year I made a stop over in Reykjavik with Iceland Air on my way to New york. I can highly recommend doing that! Reykjavik is a very trendy city and there are lots of things to do. Don’t miss a visit to the Blue Lagoon! (Read my blog about the Blue Lagoon here). And if you have the time make some tours in Reykjavik, for example the golden circle tour. It gives a good impression of Iceland in just one afternoon. Great for city hoppers like me! During the golden circle tour you get the see the major  high lights of Iceand such as Gullfoss waterfall and the geyser district. At the geyser district the tour also stops at a very trendy souvenir store. Read my blog about this Davy Crocket style store here.
