From the largest and tallest church in Iceland, to the museum of the first settlements; from the 4D Cinema that will make you FlyOver Iceland, to the most exclusive Private Club in the country.In just a few hours, this educational tour will take you into the heart of Icelandic history and culture.Depending on the time slot and season, the meeting point may occasionally change due to the opening hours of the places we will visit.Once we'll meet, our guide will tell you a brief overview of the history of the first Icelandic settlements, and then take you between the center of Reykjavík and the old harbour area, up above the bell tower of the Hallgrímskirkja church, showing you a 360° view of the entire city.Before saying goodbye, we will take you to eat what Bill Clinton called “the best Hot Dog in the World” still in the same area, to end our guided tour in an exclusive private club with panoramic terraces in the city center.A very easy and ideal tour for those who only have a short time and want to get the most out of their trip without getting tired.
The Golden Circle tour will take you directly into the heart of Iceland with stops at the most iconic places.You will visit historic locations such as the National Park of Þingvellir, as well as other sites of high relevance and spectacular beauty including the geothermal park of Geysir, and the waterfall of Gullfoss.All this in one day, surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of Icelandic nature.

Experience the untouched Icelandic nature at night time, away from the city lights, searching for the Northern Lights.Our guide will explain you the science behing this natural phenomenon, and will show some photographic techniques to best capture the dancing lights.
If you want to enjoy the beauty of the Icelandic landscapes full of waterfalls and volcanoes, black sand and basalt columns, without having to go on long hikes, the tour of the South Coast to Vík is right for you.In just one day we will take you to the town of Vík (capital of the Southern region), stopping along the way in front of waterfalls such as Seljalandsfoss, Gljúfrabúi, Skogafoss and Kvernufoss. Before returning to Reykjavík, we will also stop at Reynisfjara beach with its basalt columns and the view of the Dyrholaey, a natural rock arch. SELJANDSFOSS AND GLJÚFRABÚI On the slopes of Ejyafjallajökull, the unpronounceable volcano that blocked flights to half of Europe during the 2010 eruption, the waterfalls of Seljalandsfoss and Gljúfrabúi are a 5-minute walk from each other. This is precisely our first stop where, depending on the season, it will or will not be possible to walk behind Seljalandsfoss and enter the canyon that leads below Gljúfrabúi. SKOGAFOSS The second stop on our journey will be in front of the waterfall of Skogafoss, also filmed in the TV series 'Game of Thrones' and 'Vikings'.A long staircase of about 400 steps leads to the top of the 62-meter-high waterfall, giving you the opportunity to admire the landscape of the plains to the sea as far as the eye can see. KVERNUFOSS A few minutes' drive away, the waterfall of Kvernufoss lets itself be discovered after a short (and easy) walk in a small canyon.To this day it is still considered not to be such a turistic destination, so with a little luck we could have few other people around us.But please, keep it a secret! REYNISFJARA Before returning to the city, our last scheduled stop is on the black beach of Reynisfjara adorned by its basalt columns.From there it is possible to admire the natural formation of the Dyrholaey: promontory that overlooks the ocean has a breathtaking arc of rock, especially at dusk.As beautiful as it is, Iceland is also dangerous: the abnormal waves that can sometimes occur on this beach are terribly infamous, so it's always good to be cautious.Our guide will obviously ensure that your visit takes place safely. EXTRA To provide a better service, we at Elysia Tours, we have chosen to work with small groups in order to guarantee you an authentic and personalized experience.Depending on the season, daylight hours and weather conditions, we reserve the right to include short surprise stops along the way.In addition to a packed lunch, we recommend that you bring waterproof clothes, heavy clothing and good hiking shoes.
