See the big Volcanic Crater Kerid, and the magical lake hidden at the bottom

What to expect

If you travel to Iceland, Geysers, Gullfoss the Golden Waterfall and Thingvellir are an absolute must-see. In the course of only eight hours, you'll be picked up from your hotel and you'll get to explore all three major Icelandic sites. As a bonus, you'll also get to see something extremely unique, the big Volcanic Crater Kerid.

Thingvellir National park is the national shire of all Icelanders: it lies in the belt of volcanic activity and fissures which pass across Iceland, a part of the mid-Atlantic ridge that divides Europe from America. You can stand with your right foot on one side...

We enjoyed the trip very much, the crater, the geysers, national park. Didn't like that we were told there were toilets at the crater but once there they were closed. The explanations weren't clear about where to go from the bus and where to get picked up at the national park

This was a really enjoyable day. The guide was really informative. It was interesting to watch and eat the food prepared in the geothermal water in the ground at the first geyser and is something we didn’t experience on any other trip! More time would have been good at the Kerid Crater but we still managed to walk around it and down in the crater itself. There were plenty of stops during the day for refreshments and food if required. This is a must attend trip.

The tour was a full day of over 8 hours with some extra little visits given as well. Kristina our driver and guide was very helpful and amusing and talked us all the way round giving us a lot of very useful information. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone visiting Iceland.

January 2024

Collected slightly late by Vlad , but not his fault as other customers at prior pick up didn’t turn up. Had to phone office as worried we’d been forgotten. Vlad was friendly and polite and handled more problematic customer with dry wit. Enjoyed day, although slightly rushed due to limited light.

Volcano, waterfall, geysir, everything Iceland is about, this tour was brilliant. We would also like to thank our guide David who put the entire group at ease, was approachable and knowledgeable not just about the tour but Iceland in general. Thanks David.

We had an interesting and enjoyable Day partly due to our Driver/Tour Guide who gave us an interesting History lesson. Weather was good which helped of course. Would recommend this experience to anyone visiting Iceland.
