Unique landscapes, numerous types of volcanoes, open fissures and faults, geothermal areas and lava fields. You'll see inside out how whole process of land creation was happening.

These sites are renowned across the world and are all as spectacular as they are unique, no wonder that Golden Circle is on top of almost every visitor’s list to do.

We'll take you for a delicious tomato soup with home baked style bread in a warm greenhouse where we would relax between tomatoes and bumble bees. Adventure is waiting out there... Let's do it together.

Like Ralph Waldo Emerson once said. Do not go where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. Agenda is as simple as 2 + 2 first we’ll warm up hiking to our farthest destination, before descending into each cave we start with stretching, then exploration time and be ready for some squats, push-ups and more stretching ! More effort you put into these exercises more you’ll see and oh boy take our word for it, there is plenty to see ! Depending on your fit level we’ll see anywhere between 2 to 4 caves. So you’ll get some cardio/ work out day for sure. We do caving often and we know there is nothing better than warm bath after half a day spent underground in humid and cool environment but than again bath sounds sooo boring. Unless you are in Iceland where you can just simply submerge yourself in a natural hot geothermal stream... Found in a beautiful valley up in the mountains, enjoining tasty Icelandic style hot dog prepared with a help of hot springs!

Inclusions: Coffee and/or Tea, Fresh Icelandic style hot-dogs made on the spot, WiFi on board, Shiny gift to remember about us once you leave the island, Helmets, crampons, headlamps, gloves

We knew Reykjavik Excursions already from previous transfers. That was the reason for us to book again. Clean, always on time, comfortable. Weak is the price. It is too expencive.

7. Fire giant's crib with G spot Iceland

G spot Iceland

Scientists believe that all Icelandic lava caves were created by volcanic eruptions. We at G spot Iceland are not so sure about it taking under consideration early settlers tales. As according to them caves were created by gods and those we will see were created by giant named Surtr. Cave was fire giant’s home once and with total length of 1970 m is the longest Icelandic lava tube. With its close neighbor Stefánshellir cave, combined length of tunnels reaches 3,5 km. Our unique exploration tour combines both mythological and geological aspects of lava cave genesis. G spot Iceland will take you for a journey through unique Icelandic landscape located at a Hallmundarhraun lava field next to Eiriksjokull glacier. Surtshellir and Stefánshellir caves offer impressive size hallways, unique lava formations, bandits activity signs. This is not a tour, this is an adventure. Grab your backpack, camera, put a smile on your face and let's start our journey-the way it should be done - G spot way.

Inclusions: Coffee and/or Tea, WiFi on board, Fresh Icelandic style hot-dogs made on a spot

8. Northern lights hunting with plan G

G spot Iceland

In Norse mythology, aurora was Bifrost a bridge between earth and asgard - home of goods. It was guarded by the Heimdal and destroyed during ragnarok. Some attributed the aurora to reflections from the shields of the Valkyries - women chosen by Odin to guide fallen warriors to Valhalla. Others believed their glow came from the beautiful Viking goddess Freja, riding horseback on the sky. These days we know aurora is caused by solar wind and thanks to science and technology we can predict it with high possibility. We would like to offer you private hunting away from bus tours at remote spots visited by very few with a optional plan G. With us you take no risk! We'll contact you day before tour to discuss viewing probability and if due to spoiled weather we cancel the tour you'll be refunded or offered different date. As for the plan G - if weather would be mixed we can get underground first, explore cave and after watch northern lights or the other way around depending on the weather.

Inclusions: Coffee and/or Tea, WiFi on board, Crampons and gloves for caving, Helmets with headlamps

We spent 4 days travelling to see the Southern sites of Iceland with a wonderful and knowledgeable guide. In addition to the standards like the black sand beaches and the Blue Lagoon she showed us many sites that are not available on regular tours through the big companies like the Westman Islands at sunset and more waterfalls than I could imagine! We also sampled Icelandic foods like fish and chips, traditional Christmas treats and delicious tomato soup surrounded by the tomato vines. Best of all, we learned so much about the rich Icelandic culture and history from Gulla. We could not have asked for a better tour guide.
