## Itinerary

1. **Thingvellir National Park** (1h; admission included) - First, take you through the Reykjavik greater area in the direction of Thingvellir National Park. This is a fantastic place to learn about the history of Iceland. You will enjoy walking between the American and Eurasian tectonic plates, seeing beautiful waterfalls, as well as...
2. **Gullfoss Falls** (45m) - Here you will have the option to take a break, shop for souvenirs, eat and get coffee. Or continue on to Gulfoss (Golden Waterfall). It is one of the area’s most beautiful waterfalls and deep history. If you like rainbows, you are almost sure to see one here.
3. **Kerid Crater** (30m) - You will be at the most eastern point from Reykjavik so turn back here and visit the Kerid Crater. This is a great opportunity for photos. You can enjoy it from the rim or, if you are adventurous, you can hike down to the beautiful blue pool at the bottom of the crater.
4. **Secret Lagoon - Gamla Laugin** (1h) - By this time, you will be ready for a relaxing swim at the Secret Lagoon located at the geothermal area of the Fludir Village. In many ways, this small pool outshines all other geothermal baths in the country.
5. **Mercury Grail** (7h) - Icelandic Adventures is your tour operator. Remember. It is worth to ask, and book multiple tours with the same operator since it can be more friendly, more private and for a lower price.
