Location

You will be picked up from Keflavik airport, and from there you can relax as you’re driven to your first night of accommodation in the 4* Sand Hotel.

The itinerary then leads you around a good portion of Southern Iceland, where you’ll see the essential sight like the Blue Lagoon, Gulfoss and the Golden Circle, whilst also leading you a little further from the tourist trail for some unique experiences.

For the rest of the experience, you’ll be staying the night in Hotel Grimsborgir, a 5* hotel, popular due to its ideal location in the heart of the Golden Circle, being very close to some of Iceland’s most amazing attractions such as Gullfoss, Geysir and Thingvellir National Park.
