The Golden Circle is a 300-kilometer sightseeing route in southwest Iceland featuring three iconic attractions: Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where tectonic plates drift apart; Geysir geothermal area home to the Strokkur geyser that erupts every 6-10 minutes; and Gullfoss, a 32-meter two-tiered waterfall. Visitors explore Iceland's volcanic landscapes, geothermal activity, and Viking-age history on day tours departing from Reykjavik.
