The Golden Circle Small Groups Tours
The Golden Circle is the name given to a 190 mile (300 kilometer) circular route which emcompasses many of Icelands most famous landmarks.
The Golden Circle can easily be completed in one day, either by renting a car or going as part of a group (tours depart every day from Reykjavik).
There are also hotels and campsites en route for people who wish to take longer. In addition to sites like the greenhouses at Hveragerdi, the huge pseudo-crater Kerid, and the church at Skalholt, the center of Christianity in Iceland from the mid-11th until the 18th centuries, there are three major points of interest on the Golden Circle.

The Blue Lagoon Small Groups Tours
About the Blue Lagoon in IcelandSome places must be experienced to appreciate their unique beauty; the Blue Lagoon in Reykjavik is one such place as it shows the ingenuity of the Icelandic people. In 1976 a power company drilled the geothermal area creating a large hole, which subsequently filled with a mineral rich mixture of salt water and fresh water.
In 1981, people living in the area requested permission to bathe in the geothermal waters and noticed an improvement in their arthritis and psoriasis conditions. By 1987 the first public bathing facilities opened, in 1984 a clinic for psoriasis opened and was recognized by the Icelandic Ministry of Health, and in 1999 the new Blue Lagoon Spa formally opened.
