Private Þingvellir National Park Half-Day Tour

5 hours

Easy

Discover the history, geology, and natural beauty of Þingvellir National Park on a private four-hour half-day tour from Reykjavík.

Explore Þingvellir National Park at a relaxed pace on a private four-hour half-day tour from Reykjavík.


Travel in comfort with your private driver-guide to one of Iceland’s most important historical and natural sites. Þingvellir is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the historic meeting place of Iceland’s ancient parliament, and part of the dramatic rift valley between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.


Begin with panoramic views from Haki before walking through Almannagjá gorge to the historic Lögberg area and Öxaráfoss waterfall. Continue to the peaceful surroundings of Þingvellir Church and Peningagjá, with views across Þingvallavatn lake. You will also see the clear waters of the Silfra fissure, although snorkelling and diving are not included.


This private experience is exclusively for your group and allows more time to explore Þingvellir than a standard Golden Circle stop. Your driver-guide will share information about the park’s history, geology, and cultural importance throughout the visit.


Pick-up and drop-off are available from selected locations in Reykjavík. Complimentary Wi-Fi, bottled water, soft drinks, and light refreshments are provided.


The itinerary and timing may be adjusted depending on weather, road conditions, safety considerations, and available access.
