The Golden Circle 



 
  We begin our tour by driving to Þingvellir, a remarkable geological site 
  and the most historic site on the island. 
  The world's oldest democratic parliament was founded here in 930.  
  Þingvellir, located by Lake Þingvallavatn, the largest lake on the island  
  is now a national park and has been a World Heritage Site since 2004.  
  The beautiful canyon running through the park is actually the meeting point
  of two of the earth’s tectonic plates.  
  The area’s combination of natural phenomena and historical significance
  make it inseparable from the fabric of Icelandic national life. 
  Our tour continues on to the infamous Geysir area where we will discover
  the famous Geysir which has given its name to hot springs all over the world.

 The town of Hveragerði is distinctive for its clusters of illuminated and heated  greenhouses, a place where savvy residents have been harnessing the power of  geothermal energy since 1920. As a result they’ve been able to cultivate a
 diversity of fruits  and vegetables, with exotic varieties as unlikely  as 
  papayas and bananas thriving.

 Buses will leave from Hilton Hotel at 14:00 and will return to
 Reykjavík at approx 22:00
 Price pr.person EUR 65.-
