Useful Information
Geysir, Iceland
You will visit Thingvellir, where the Icelandic parliament Alpingi was established in 930. It is here in this geologically unique place that the slowly diverging tectonic plates of America and Europe meet. In 2004 Thingvellir was added to UNESCO's World Heritage List.
The tour also takes you to the famous Gullfoss waterfall, the spouting hot spring of Geysir and Strokkur. Continuing your journey to Hveragerdi, a small but beautiful horticultural town, you will see how geothermal energy has been harnessed for the unique greenhouse cultivation of all kinds of vegetables, exotic fruit and flowers.

Really Great day made perfect by the brillient tour guide who knew everything about Iceland its history, culture, and all about the the places we visited. The tour was very good and well organised. There was plenty of time at each location, and some visits to places off the beaten track. We will do the full day tour when we return in October.
