Side Trips from Reykjavik
TRAVEL GUIDE

Loading...

You don't have to venture far beyond Reykjavik to experience some of Iceland's most incredible scenery and natural wonders. Take a drive or guided tour of the famous Golden Circle to easily see three regional highlights: Þingvellir, Geysir hot spring, and Gullfoss, the "Golden Waterfall." A soak in the soothing waters of the Blue Lagoon is just a quick bus-ride away, with twice-daily service from Reykjavík, or a direct transfer to or from the airport via the FlyBus.
