    What you'll see and do

    1. Thingvellir National Park

      Þingvellir (Thingvellir) is a historic site and national park in Iceland, east of Reykjavík. It's known for the Alþing (Althing), the site of Iceland's parliament from the 10th to 18th centuries. On the site are the Þingvellir Church and the ruins of old stone shelters. The park sits in a rift valley caused by the separation of 2 tectonic plates, with rocky cliffs and fissures like the huge Almannagjá fault.

    2. Site de Geysir

      Haukadalur is the home of hot springs, fumaroles, mud pots, and geysers, including the famous Great Geysir and the active Strokkur. The area is noted for the vivid coloration of its surrounding hills, caused by elements deep in the earth being brought to the surface by the geothermal activity.

    4. Faxi (Vatnsleysufoss) Waterfall

      Faxifoss is a beautiful waterfall on the Golden Circle route. It is also known as “Vatnsleysufoss“. It is not as big as Gullfoss but the nice thing is that you can get really close to the falls. The waterfall is about 10 feet high and is quite a straight wall of water for about 50 feet.

    5. Fridheimar

      Country-style, family-run restaurant offering tomato-based dishes from onsite greenhouses.

      60 minutes here

    6. Kerid Crater

      Kerið is approximately three thousand years old, making it roughly half the age of most volcanic calderas found in Iceland. This is the major reason as to why Kerið’s slopes are red in colour, rather than a volcanic black; the iron deposits are, geologically speaking, fresh.

The car was nice and cozy, Tinna picked us up from our Hotel in instantly started to teach us about Iceland geography, culture and people. Tinna has a naturalist spirit with a science minded perspective. Tinna is very educated and well knowledgeable in Viking history! We chatted the entire tour and she answered ALL our questions. Lunch was fun and delicious! This was a wonderful experience that my family and I will treasure forever! Thank you Tinna for all you have taught and shared with us and I do hope our paths cross again <3

    Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reykjavik.

    How much does Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $2,158 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Reykjavik usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 7.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Reykjavik is not rushed.

    Is Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 47 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Reykjavik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour?

    +

    Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Reykjavik can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Reykjavik and add a light layer if any part of the 7.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Reykjavik within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Reykjavik?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Reykjavik experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Reykjavik Food Walk - Local Foodie Adventure in Iceland, Silfra Snorkeling Between Continents Photos Included- Self Drive, Small-Group Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon with Ticket & Kerid Crater. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Reykjavik?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Reykjavik?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour?

    +

    Included: Bottled water; On-board WiFi; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 81 listed pickup locations in and around Reykjavik. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Golden Circle & Friðheimar Experience: Private Farm & Wonder Tour if the weather is bad?
